The Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database (NAS) information resource is an established central repository for spatially referenced biogeographic accounts of introduced aquatic species. The NAS website provides scientific reports, online/real-time queries, spatial data sets, distribution maps, fact sheets, and general information.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) utilizes several sampling gears for fisheries-independent monitoring of finfish and shellfish communities. They include bag seines, trawls, gill nets and oyster dredges. TPWD uses multiple gears in a random sampling protocol, and they identify (to the lowest taxonomic unit possible) and count everything that they collect. This dataset contains bag seine data collected for the Upper Laguna Madre system in Texas from 1977 to 2008. Collected data also included spatial and temporal information describing the sample location and time, collection gear information, hydrological data (e.g. dissolved oxygen, water temperature, and salinity), weather conditions, species caught,...

They include bag seines, trawls, gill nets and oyster dredges. TPWD uses multiple gears in a random sampling protocol, and they identify (to the lowest taxonomic unit possible) and count everything that they collect. This dataset contains bay trawl data collected for the Upper Laguna Madre system in Texas from 1982 to 2008. Collected data also included spatial and temporal information describing the sample location and time, collection gear information, hydrological data (e.g. dissolved oxygen, water temperature, and salinity), weather conditions, species caught,...
This dataset provides the sampling locations and identifications for a total of 60 larvae collected near deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields and used in a microbiome study by Carrier et al. (2020, submitted). The larvae were collected near hydrothermal vent fields on the East Pacific Rise (EPR 9°50'N vent field), on the Mariana Back-Arc Spreading Center (near Snail and Archaean vent fields), and in Pescadero Basin (Auka vent field) in the Gulf of California. This dataset is derived from a dataset in the Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) repository (Beaulieu et al., 2021, doi:10.26008/1912/bco-dmo.839476.1) with the addition of two Darwin Core terms recommended for the Global Biodiversity...

This dataset contains cetacean observation data conducted during shipboard transects in the Chukchi Sea during the 9 August - 3 September 2015 Arctic Marine Biodiversity Observing Network (AMBON) research cruise. The dataset is two comma-separated values (csv) files describing the dates, times, latitude, longitude, species and best-high-low estimates of numbers for each cetacean (whales). This dataset was exported from the marine bird and mammal observation software WinCruz from the entire survey, and later transformed from the WinCruz format into Darwin Core formatted tables (DwC, occurrence core), with DwC term names as column names.

The University of Kansas Ichthyology collection contains more than 680,000 specimens of fishes from around the world and is the basis of the research and educational activities of the Division of Ichthyology. The collection has an emphasis on freshwater fishes of the central United States and also has significant marine and estuarine collections. The dataset has been limited to marine and estuarine species for inclusion in the Ocean Biogeographic Information System. The entire fish collection has representation from 3171 taxa (297 families and 1262 genera) and 79 countries including Ecuador, Fiji, Mexico, Nepal, Nicaragua and various marine localities. The collections and the scope of research activities in the...

Fish census data were collected from sites around Micronesia as part of the ongoing Micronesia Challenge. Information on the program can be found at (www.micronesiareefmonitoring.com). Survey sites were selected around each island to be representative of natural environmental gradients, management, and major reef types. Thus, full site designs can be used to evaluate both island trends and site-specific trends. The size and abundance of fishes, which are generally consumed by people (hereinafter food-fish), were collected by four calibrated observers, with individual observers being consistent across jurisdictions. Fish assemblages were estimated from 12 stationary-point counts (SPCs) conducted at equal intervals...

The UF Invertebrate collection holds ~580,000 databased lots of mollusks and marine invertebrates. It began as a Malacology collection almost 100 years ago and the collection is particularly strong in non-marine mollusks. Approximately ~85% of the holdings are mollusks but since 2000 the collection was expanded to cover all invertebrate phyla, focusing on marine taxa. Today it holds >40,000 species from 28 phyla and is currently available via the Integrated Publishing Toolkit and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility. However, this is a subset of that data prepared for ingest by OBIS. This means that only records with geographic coordinates (lat/lon), scientific names that matched to the World Register of...
