A Holocene sea-level history constructed for north-east Spencer Gulf shows a relative fall from a peak around 6000-4000 years B.P. Beach ridges and subtidal sea-grass deposits were used as indicators, with elevations precisely measured relative to the Australian Height Datum. The dataset, from Geoscience Australia Data, includes 14C dating results on mollusc shells and sea-grass fibers to establish the chronology.
A recent drilling program in southeast South Australia provides new insight into the late Cainozoic sequence. The data likely contains information on sediment facies and sea-level changes over a period of 690,000 years or less, resulting in a 100 km seaward progradation of the shoreline between Naracoorte and Robe. The dataset is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in May 2026.
Forty-two major Mesozoic lithofacies types were recovered from an extensive dredging program in 1990. The rocks indicate Late Triassic shelf carbonates and reefs, Late Triassic-Mid Jurassic volcanics, and a transition to deeper-water Cretaceous deposits. This dataset, from Geoscience Australia, provides geological control for seismic interpretations offshore northwest Australia.
The dataset describes the geological history of the onshore Canning Basin, characterized by five major periods of sedimentation from the Early Ordovician through the Cainozoic. It was published by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated on 2026-05-14. The description details sequences of marine and continental sedimentary rocks, including Devonian reef-carbonates and potential hydrocarbon traps.
The Early to Middle Cambrian Stansbury Basin preserves a palaeogeographic zonation from shallow shelf carbonates to extensional rift facies. Sedimentation occurred from about 540 Ma to at least 510 Ma, with a distinctive phase of thick rift sedimentation in the Kanmantoo Trough from 526 Ma. This dataset from Geoscience Australia Data, last updated in 2026, describes the basin's tectonic evolution and potential for mineral deposits like Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) and volcanogenic massive sulphides.
Geoscience Australia's BOREHOLE database aggregates header and directional survey data from multiple sources. It includes boreholes drilled by Geoscience Australia and its predecessors, all resource exploration boreholes in Commonwealth offshore jurisdictions, and a selection of onshore mineral, groundwater, geothermal, and seismic boreholes. The data is sourced from various state, territory, and Commonwealth regulatory authorities for research purposes.
West America Region hourly gridded sea surface skin temperature data derived from the NOAA GOES-18 satellite's Advanced Baseline Imager. The Level 3 Collated (L3C) product provides 24 granules per day, validated against in situ measurements and includes sensor-specific error statistics for each pixel. Data is available in both Near Real-Time and a higher-quality Delayed Mode version with a latency of approximately two months.
14.3 MB of data on epibenthic community structure from Young Sound, NE Greenland, collected by Amalia Keck Al-Habahbeh. The dataset covers depths of 20m to 60m and spans two time periods: 2003–2010 and 2021-2022. It evaluates taxonomic and functional composition, noting brittle stars and bivalves comprised 95% of total abundances.
A time-series analysis of epibenthic community structure in Young Sound, NE Greenland, from 2003–2010 and 2021-2022. Data collected by drop cameras and ROVs at depths of 20m to 60m evaluates taxonomic and functional composition. The dataset was authored by Amalia Keck Al-Habahbeh and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
An archived copy of the SAFARI 2000 Project website from October 2008 provides information on an international Earth science initiative for southern Africa. The dataset includes spatial estimates of monthly biomass burned area and trace gas emissions at 1-km resolution for the year 2000, derived from satellite observations like GBA2000 and ATSR fire counts. AERONET ground-based aerosol optical property measurements from several sites in the region are also included.
2,310 wells were used to calculate volume of shale (Vshale) values for the 3D geological and hydrogeological model of the Great Artesian and Lake Eyre Basins. This data package, produced by Geoscience Australia's National Groundwater Systems Project, provides a refined architecture of aquifer and aquitard geometry. It was completed as part of the Exploring for the Future program, an eight-year, $225 million Australian Government initiative.
Cefas electronic data storage tag database contains temperature and depth records from tags attached to cod in the southern North Sea between 1999 and 2009. Data from recaptured fish were downloaded, with depth time series used to estimate daily geographic location. This dataset is one of 17 Cefas data sources assembled for a data paper.
Cefas ESM2 Profiler/mini CTD Logger data is one of 17 Cefas temperature data sources assembled for publication. The dataset contains seawater temperature measurements collected by a Cefas-developed micro logger with integrated sensors for conductivity, temperature, depth, optical backscatter, and roll & pitch. It is used for water column profiling on research cruises and SmartBuoy-related work.
One of 17 Cefas data sources assembled for a data paper. The mid and late 20th century saw extensive oceanographic research by DFS and Cefas. The resulting data were stored in an Oceanographic Archive which managed data from sensor systems including a CTD system for water column profiling.
March 2019 water quality data collected around Tarawa, Kiribati, under the Commonwealth Marine Economies Programme. The dataset includes measurements for nutrients, chlorophyll, total suspended solids, and bacteria including E. coli and antimicrobial-resistant strains. It was hosted by the Kiribati Ministry of Lands, Environment and Development Environment and Conservation Division (MELAD-ECD) and aggregated by the Marine Environmental Data & Information Network.
Greenhouse gas emissions from the Montreal community are compiled annually for public disclosure via the Carbon Disclosure Project platform. The dataset supports tracking progress toward reduction goals of 30% by 2020 and 55% by 2030 compared to the 1990 baseline. It is published by the Government and Municipalities of Québec and was last updated in April 2026.
The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) is Canada's public inventory of pollutant releases, disposals, and transfers for recycling. This dataset contains maps showing the locations of all facilities that reported to the NPRI in the most recent reporting year, available in ESRI REST and WMS formats. The data is provided by Environment and Climate Change Canada and was last updated on 2026-04-29.
The eReefs GBR1 Diuron Dispersal dataset from the Australian Ocean Data Network models the transport of the pesticide diuron in the Great Barrier Reef marine environment. It uses a 1 km resolution hydrodynamic model forced by wind, tides, and river inputs from 16 catchments to simulate hourly diuron concentrations from January 2016 to July 2018. The model incorporates a determined diuron half-life of 40 days and compares simulated distributions with observations from 11 monitoring sites.
75-meter tall mountain ash trees in a 300-year-old chronosequence form the basis for this flux tower dataset measuring ecosystem carbon exchange. The release contains gap-filled Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER), processed using PyFluxPro v3.4.15. Data were collected by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network from a cool temperate forest site at approximately 720 meters elevation in Victoria's Central Highlands.
Olivia A. Harmon's dataset from 2023 surveys measures enteric pathogens and fecal indicator bacteria in environmental samples from a rural Alabama community with limited sanitation. It includes 58 soil samples from sites near suspected wastewater discharges, 10 control soil samples, and 28 surface water samples analyzed via qPCR and culture methods. The data provides quantitative evidence of contamination levels, such as a mean culturable E. coli count of 224 MPN/g in impacted soils.
