The CDC MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality World Report) provides data on disease incidence for nationally notifiable human diseases. About MMWR Data for selected nationally notifiable diseases reported by the 50 states, New York City, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories are collated and published weekly in the Morbidity...MORE
Spot-mapping data for birds combined with information on the local vegetation. This includes information on the number and position of singing males and breeding pairs, as well as information on the number of nests and fledglings. Plots vary in scale from 10 hectares (in closed habitats) to 40 hectares (in...MORE
The USA National Phenology Network (USA-NPN) monitors the influence of climate on the phenology of plants, animals, and landscapes. We do this by encouraging people to observe phenological events like leaf out, flowering, migrations, and egg laying, and by providing a place for people to enter, store, and share their...MORE
A large compilation of empirical data on how traits respond to environmental drivers. Dataset Location: The dataset is available both online where selected data for individual populations can be downloaded one at a time and as a Data Paper in Ecological Archives providing access to the entire dataset in one...MORE
Via NEON's overview page: Data will be collected from 106 sites (60 terrestrial, 36 aquatic and 10 aquatic experimental) across the U.S. (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico) using instrument measurements and field sampling. NEON will combine site-based data with remotely sensed data and existing continental-scale data sets (e.g. satellite...MORE
This website and database hosts records of fossil pollen, charcoal, and mammal assemblages, as well as plant macrofossils, largely from North America, but also globally, throughout the Pleiocene-Quaternary (and Anthropocene). Also included are chronological controls that allow the use of the records through time from the last 5 million years...MORE
