Summary Data: Monitoring and Observations Effort by Marine Ecoregion

Summary of marine environmental monitoring and observation effort by networks associated with three Australian National Research Infrastructures from 2010 to the present organised by State/Territory, IMCRA bioregion, feature type and year.\r\n\r\nMetadata records were aggregated from biodiversity survey events from the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA, https://ala.org.au/), marine observations collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS, https://imos.org.au/) and site-based monitoring and survey efforts by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN, https://tern.org.au/). See Aggregated Data: Environmental Monitoring and Observations Effort for information on the metadata included.\r\n\r\nThe elements in this dataset are as follows:\r\n1.\tYear in which activity occurred (2010 to present)\r\n2.\tState/Territory\r\n3.\tIMCRA4.0 mesoscale marine bioregion\r\n4.\tFeature ID from EcoAssets Earth Science Features vocabulary\r\n5.\tFeature name associated with feature ID\r\n6.\tFeature facet 1 – high-level facet based on feature ID – a top-level GCMD Earth Science category (6 terms)\r\n7.\tFeature facet 2 – intermediate-level facet based on feature ID – second-level GCMD/ANSL category (29 terms)\r\n8.\tFeature facet 3 – lower-level facet with more fine-grained taxonomic structure based on feature ID – typically a third-level GCMD/ANSL category (36 terms)\r\n9.\tCount of metadata records matching columns 1-8\r\n\r\nTo find out more about this dataset, visit:\r\nhttps://ecoassets.org.au/data/summary-data-monitoring-and-observations-effort-by-marine-ecoregion/
