Vanessa R. von Biela of the United States Geological Survey compiled this dataset measuring gene transcription for 12 selected genes and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) abundance in muscle tissue from wild Chinook salmon. It includes data from 477 fish captured in 2016 and 2017 within the U.S. Yukon River watershed, plus 22 fish from a 2018 temperature experiment. The experimental data validated gene transcription and HSP70 protein levels as heat stress biomarkers.
Annual UK depopulation results published in compliance with retained EU Regulation 1099/2009. Data on operations for public health, animal health, animal welfare, or environmental reasons is collated by the APHA from devolved authorities for England, Scotland, and Wales. The report must be updated annually by 30 June.
Reconstruction of North Sea trawling effort 1985-2015 provides a spatial distribution of total international otter and beam trawling fishing effort. The dataset covers a 31-year time span and is structured by ICES rectangles, which are 0.5 degree latitude by 1 degree longitude cells. It was largely reconstructed using compiled effort data from 7 fishing effort time-series and completed by estimations of missing data.
Geoscience Australia provides 2D XRF imaging data visualizing uranium oxidation states U(IV), (V), and (VI) in rock samples. The data was produced using a novel non-destructive HERFD-XRF technique at the U M4 edge, offering insights into uranium habitat and valency. The dataset is associated with a 2025 publication in Chemical Communications.
Australian Ocean Data Network provides quantitative abundance data for fish, invertebrates, and algae from temperate Australian rocky reefs. The data, collected using transect-based methods at 5m and 10m depths, focuses on temporal changes following protection in long-term Marine Protected Areas. This specific record contains data collected at the Ninepin Point site in Tasmania, with temporal replication on a year scale.
A summary report and sample manifest from the 2024/25 BEAUT terrestrial field season at Bunger Hills and Casey. The dataset includes a Word document detailing sampling activities and methodology for lake, soil, and cryoconite habitats, and an Excel file listing sample locations, times, types, preservation methods, and barcode IDs. The data was aggregated by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on June 23, 2026.
Vegetation composition percent covers from a series of experimental plots in the United Kingdom. The data were collected by others, rescued, and synthesized for this resource, covering experiments from 2000 to 2021. The Environmental Information Data Centre provides the data with supporting documentation on each experiment.
A moist semi-deciduous forest in the Republic of Benin provides data on three tropical tree species, including Mansonia altissima. The dataset was compiled from field measurements and analyzed using Ripley's L-function via the Programita software. It aims to inform ecological mechanisms and support restoration and conservation efforts.
Australia's temperate continental shelf rocky reefs support diverse communities including corals, sponges, and fish. The project collated existing seafloor data and deployed drop cameras at priority sites in the South-west and South-east Marine Parks Networks to validate habitat extent and type. Outcomes from 2022-2023 aimed to improve capacity for marine park managers to monitor habitats and assess management effectiveness.
A collection of 1,592 spiders from 26 families captured over 2,674 trap-days. The data was gathered using 75 pitfall traps on five short-tailed shearwater breeding islands in south-eastern Tasmania, Australia, to study the effects of seabird presence and seasonality. It was published via the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in June 2026.
A field survey report documents sediment sampling in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia, conducted by Geoscience Australia in March 2004. It details procedures for collecting surface grab samples and subsurface vibracores for sediment type classification and stratigraphic reconstruction. The data is intended to ground-truth sonar surveys and support benthic habitat mapping.
Geoscience Australia, the Australian Institute of Marine Science, and the Northern Territory Government collected surface sediment data in Bynoe Harbour from 2-29 May 2016. This dataset comprises the results of sediment oxygen demand experiments undertaken on seabed sediments during the RV Solander survey SOL6432/GA4452. The data supports a four-year program (2014-2018) to create thematic habitat maps for marine resource management in the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour regions.
A regional-scale map of Plant Community Types (PCTs) for the Upper Hunter area of New South Wales, Australia. The NSW Office of Environment and Heritage produced this seamless map using aerial imagery, site surveys, and environmental data. It was superseded by a newer statewide map on June 24, 2022, and the web service will be archived after March 31, 2025.
A scoping study from the NESP Marine and Coastal Hub developed a framework for prioritizing seabed and biodiversity surveys in Australia. Focused workshops and engagements with mapping organizations produced standard metadata for defining spatial Areas of Interest (AOI). Outputs include a national AOI polygon dataset, a web-based submission tool, and a final report with a value prioritisation framework.
335 kidney transplant recipients with proteinuria were studied for a median of 5.2 years to assess graft failure risk. The research found moderate/non-selective proteinuria was independently associated with a higher risk of graft failure. This dataset, shared on figshare under CC-BY-4.0, contains the supplementary material for the published study.
Core incubation experiments from the Bynoe Harbour Marine Survey 2016 measured total oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production rates in seabed sediments. The survey was conducted from 2-29 May 2016 by Geoscience Australia, AIMS, and the Northern Territory Government aboard the RV Solander. Data collection included multibeam sonar, sediment samples, underwater imagery, and oceanographic measurements to support habitat mapping.
Parks Australia's 2022 Natural Values Ecosystems dataset delineates marine ecosystems by habitat and depth within the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone. It uses a 250m resolution bathymetry grid as its base and provides a broad-scale, nationally consistent classification. The dataset is part of the Parks Australia Management Effectiveness system and is published by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Geoscience Australia, AIMS, and the Northern Territory Government collected surface sediment data in Bynoe Harbour from 2-29 May 2016. The dataset comprises total chlorin concentrations, chlorin indices, and porosity measurements for seabed sediments. This work was part of a four-year (2014-2018) program to create baseline habitat maps for marine resource management in the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour regions.
Three draft genome sequences of Enterococcus faecalis strains (LAB1, LAB10, LAB11) isolated from tilapia aquaculture pond water at the University Nangui Abrogoua in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. Each genome is approximately 2.94 Mb with a GC content of 37.40% and contains between 2,872 and 2,875 predicted protein-coding sequences. The dataset was authored by Muiz Oluwatosin Akinyemi and last updated on 2026-05-31.
A geospatial dataset mapping cliff and foreshore areas designated for conservation under Section 3 of the Wildlife and Countryside (Amendment) Act 1985. The data was created by the Exmoor National Park Authority and was surveyed in 1990. It includes uncultivated land above and adjoining the low water mark, covering features like banks, barriers, dunes, beaches, and flats.
