Geoscience Australia collected towed video and still images of the seafloor from 2007 onwards, including 21 marine surveys between 2007 and 2013. The footage, recorded 1-2 meters above the seabed, provides direct observations of geological features, habitats, and organisms. This data improves the understanding and management of Australia's marine environments, offering first images of many deep offshore sites.
Tweed Shire Council Local Government Area Vegetation Mapping from various sources including Comprehensive Regional Assessment data and further refined up to 2012. The mapping was updated in 2011 using aerial photography from October 2009, with bushland boundaries revised at approximately 1:5000 scale. The current version was finalised in January 2012 by the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water.
Five newly described species of fungi from the Agaricales and Russulales orders in Southwest China. The dataset includes morphological descriptions, illustrations, and phylogenetic analyses based on ITS and nrLSU DNA sequences. It was authored by yinglian Deng and published on figshare in May 2026.
Australia's marine estate provides geospatial data supporting offshore renewable energy development. The dataset likely contains seabed geomorphology maps synthesizing bathymetry, shallow geology, sedimentology, and ecology data. These maps were produced by Geoscience Australia using a standardized scheme developed with European agencies and presented at the 2024 AMSA-NZMSS Conference.
The Sabrina continental slope in East Antarctica features gully morphology shaped by glaciation-driven sedimentation and erosion. Differences in slope angles correlate with variations in gully shape, initiation point, and incision depth, which in turn influence seafloor community structure and beta-diversity. This dataset likely contains geospatial and geological data from Geoscience Australia, associated with a 2020 Marine Geology publication.
Geoscience Australia Data mapped geomorphic features and sedimentary facies in 283 wave- and tide-dominated estuaries and deltas across Australia. The dataset was used to quantitatively evaluate established evolutionary facies models and reveal new insights about the transition from estuaries to deltas during stable sea level conditions. This study is described as the first published example of such geomorphic and sedimentary data assembled from a large number of systems across an entire continent.
Mandatory goods requiring phytosanitary certificates have a 100% inspection rate as they are considered high-risk. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, consignment counts, and various check and failure percentages for the 2014 reporting period. This summary was produced by the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency and published via the Government Digital Service.
A summary of 2011 import inspection statistics for reduced-risk plant goods by point of entry. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, country of origin, and various counts and percentages for consignments, checks, and failures. Attribution is given to the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and Crown Copyright for 2016.
2012 data summarizing import inspections for low-risk plant goods, with percentage check rates reported for calendar periods from 2013 to 2016. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, country of origin, consignment counts, and failure rates for physical, document, and ID checks. It is attributed to the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and the Government Digital Service.
2013 to 2016 summary statistics for reduced-risk plant goods import inspections within the EU. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, country of origin, consignment counts, and failure rates for physical, document, and identity checks. It is provided by the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) via the Government Digital Service.
2015 summary data for mandatory plant goods import inspections, which have a 100% inspection rate due to high phytosanitary risk. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, consignment counts, and various check and failure percentages. Attribution is given to the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and Crown Copyright.
EU Open Data provides a summary of import inspection statistics for controlled plant goods from 2015. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, consignment counts, weights, and failure rates for physical, document, and ID checks. Attribution is given to the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and Crown Copyright from 2016.
EU data from 2014 summarizing plant health import inspections for controlled goods requiring phytosanitary certificates. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, consignment counts, weights, and various check and failure rates. Attribution is given to the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and Crown Copyright.
2012 summary of import inspection statistics for plant goods subject to EU phytosanitary controls. The dataset includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, consignment counts, weights, and failure rates for physical, document, and ID checks. Attribution is ©Crown Copyright, APHA 2016.
350 pockmarks per square kilometer were mapped in the Arafura Sea, indicating shallow gas migration. The survey confirmed microbial gas origins in Holocene mud-filled channels and correlated benthic biodiversity with substrate hardness. Data was collected by Geoscience Australia and published via the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Canadian Food Inspection Agency data details perchlorate contamination in 1,426 food samples collected from retail stores between 2011 and 2013. The survey covers fresh fruits and vegetables, juices, dairy-based products, and infant formulas. It was conducted under the Food Safety Action Plan to generate baseline surveillance data for human health risk assessments.
611 food samples collected from Canadian retail stores in 2010-11 were analyzed for perchlorate contamination. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency conducted this targeted survey to establish baseline data, finding detectable perchlorate in 65% of fruits/vegetables, 87% of dairy, and 63% of infant formula. Results were shared with Health Canada for future risk assessments.
IBIS Version 2.5 is a Dynamic Global Vegetation Model that explicitly links land surface physics, hydrology, biogeochemistry, and transient vegetation dynamics within a single framework. Developed by the Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment, it simulates global patterns of water balance, carbon balance, and vegetation structure. Model performance was evaluated using continental- and global-scale field data for the period 1965-1994.
Reduced goods, considered low-risk imports, are permitted inspection rates below 100%. This summary of Import Inspection statistics for Reduced Goods by Point of Entry for 2012 includes fields for inspection type, botanical name, country of origin, and failure percentages across multiple check types. The dataset was produced by the UK's Animal and Plant Health Agency and is attributed to Crown Copyright, APHA 2016.
Mandatory goods have a 100% inspection rate, as they are considered high-risk materials. This dataset provides a summary of 2015 import inspection statistics for mandatory plant goods by point of entry, including fields for inspection type, botanical name, and failure rates. The data is attributed to Crown Copyright and the APHA from 2016.
