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
Database including information on distribution, taxonomy, and synonyms for birds. Data location: http://avibase.bsc-eoc.org/ Uses: Of particular interest is the tool for comparing two differt checklists. This provides information to help combine datasets that are based on different taxonomies, and the determine what has changed from one version of the taxonomy...MORE
The USGS Gap Analysis Program (GAP) PAD-US is the national inventory of U.S. terrestrial and marine protected areas that are dedicated to the preservation of biological diversity and to other natural, recreation and cultural uses, managed for these purposes through legal or other effective means. Lands in PAD-US are mainly...MORE
The USGS Gap Analysis Program (GAP) Land Cover Data Set includes detailed vegetation and land use patterns for the continental United States. The data set incorporates the Ecological System classification system developed by NatureServe to represent natural and semi-natural land cover. The 590 land use classes in the data set...MORE
Dryad is a general-purpose data repository. It's goal is to make data underlying scientific publictions discoverable, freely reusable, and citable. Dryad partners with scientific journals to include data from publications. Submission of data from other publications not directly partnered with Dryad is also welcome.
