title: Social Behavior and Population Dynamics of Marmots 1965 and Continuing after 2001

description: The trap record for each animal for each year the animal was present includes age, sex, locality, and reproductive status. Also included, when known, are changes in location, fate (predation death, dispersed), and genetic information (allozymes). This data set is a continuation of the one started by Kenneth B. Armitage titled, " Social Beharior and Population Dynamics of Marmots", that goes from 1965 - 2001. From 2002 and continuing additional columns are added including Marmot's reaction to being trapped and taged, and samples that were taken such as blood, fecal and hair. To access this data, that includes from 2002 on, please contact Daniel Blumstein.

title: North Atlantic Register for Marine Species (NARMS)

description: The North Atlantic Register for Marine Species, or NARMS, describes the species biodiversity of the northern North Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean, and the Black Sea. Featured are up-to-date species registers for both sides of the North Atlantic. The NW list spans diatoms to marine mammals in North American waters from Davis Strait to Cape Hatteras. The "European" list has many more species, including additional lower life forms, in the continental shelf seas of Europe from Greenland and north-west Russia to the Canaries and Azores, including the Mediterranean shelf and the Black Sea. Though some sources and species were undoubtedly missed, an attempt was made to make these lists comprehensive and authoritative species registers.

title: Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS)

description: Subtle changes in ocean color signify various types and quantities of marine phytoplankton (microscopic marine plants), the knowledge of which has both scientific and practical applications. It became apparent to the oceanographic community that because of the dynamic nature of the world's oceans and climate, and the importance of the ocean's role in global change, a follow-on sensor to the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) should be flown. From a scientific perspective, obtaining ocean color data from space in the early 1990s is a high priority goal that has been recognized in reports of the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences. The SeaWiFS Project was designated to develop and operate a research data system to gather, process, archive, and distribute data received from an ocean color sensor. The principal objective has been to acquire data that are critical for the study of the role of oceans, including the exchange of critical elements andgases between the atmosphere and ocean, and how these exchanges affect phytoplankton production.

title: U.S. National Park Service Kelp Monitoring Database

description: NCEAS Project, "7600: Halpern: Implications for reserve design (Hosted by NCEAS)", and a paper titled, "Supporting Online Material for Strong Top-down control in Southern California Kelp Forest Ecosystems" used this MS Access database. The U.S. National Park Service has been conducting annual surveys of algal, invertebrate, and fish abundances at 16 different kelp forest sites around the five islands in the Channel Islands National Park since 1982 as part of the Kelp Forest Monitoring Program (KFMP). Here we focused on data from the KFMP for only four years, 1999-2002 (for our purposes, a year runs from July the previous year to June of the current year), as these were the only years for which oceanographic data were available, and only for the 4 northern Channel Islands. Abundance data were available for 49 species, with trophic classifications of these species as elsewhere.

title: Elevated CO2 stimulates net accumulations of carbon and nitrogen in land ecosystems: a meta-analysis database

description: We compiled data from 104 published papers that study C and N dynamics at ambient and elevated CO2. The compiled database contains C contents, N contents, and C:N ratio in various plant and soil pools, and root:shoot ratio. Averaged C and N pool sizes in plant and soil all significantly increase at elevated CO2 in comparison to those at ambient CO2; ranging from a 5% increase in shoot N content to a 32% increase in root C content.

title: Human cultural Diversity - A Cross-national data set

description: A cross-national data set of 21 variables was assembled for 212 countries from three sources (Barro and Lee 1994; Gordon 2005; CIA World Fact Book 2005). Our data set includes several proxy measures for national wealth, cultural diversity, social instability (both at national and international levels), and demography. Separate diversity measures were calculated for three different cultural domains, namely language, religion and ethnic groups . In addition, wealth variables (per capita GDP, and GINI, the coefficient of income inequality) were assembled, along with indicators of societal functioning drawn from the literature (especially Barro and Lee 1994), including indices of political rights (PRIGHTSB), revolutions and coups d'états (REVCOUP), and political instability (PINSTAB). Measures of international conflict were extracted from the social science literature, and the following were used: the proportion of the time between 1960-85 the country was involved in an external war (WARTIME), the number of international disputes in which the country was involved (TOTINTDISP), and an index of total military expenditure (TOTMILITEXP). Possible confounding variables such as population size (POPSIZE) and the number of international borders (NBINTBORDERS) were also included.

title: Age-adjusted prevalence, aggregate neuroticism, the cultural dimensions of uncertainty avoidance and masculinity among nations.

description: The latent prevalence of a long-lived and common brain parasite, Toxoplasma gondii, explains a statistically significant portion of the variance in aggregate neuroticism among populations, as well as in the 'neurotic' cultural dimensions of sex roles and uncertainty avoidance. Spurious or non-causal correlations between aggregate personality and aspects of climate and culture that influence T. gondii transmission could also drive these patterns. A link between culture and T. gondii hypothetically results from a behavioral manipulation that the parasite uses to increase its transmission to the next host in the life cycle: a cat. While latent toxoplasmosis is usually benign, the parasite's subtle effect on individual personality appears to alter the aggregate personality at the population level. Drivers of the geographical variation in the prevalence of this parasite include the effects of climate on the persistence of infectious stages in soil, the cultural practices of food preparation and cats as pets. Some variation in culture, therefore, may ultimately be related to how climate affects the distribution of T. gondii, though the results only explain a fraction of the variation in two of the four cultural dimensions, suggesting that if T. gondii does influence human culture, it is only one among many factors. Age-adjusted prevalence, aggregate neuroticism (N), the cultural dimensions of uncertainty avoidance (U) and masculinity (M) among nations. Original references for most of the T. gondii data used are derived from Tenter et al. (2000). Prevalence was age-adjusted to 22 years. Key to references: 1, Tenter et al.

title: Main causes for discrepancies in species classifications

description: Decisions about species conservation status have critical implications for allocation of public and private funding, land use planning decisions, and regulatory actions. A broad range of methods are used to classify species conservation status at a variety of geographic scales (e.g., local, national, international). Different methods produce very different results, yet there is no rationale or benchmark for judging their adequacy or appropriateness. Existing systems also are incomplete because they lack rules that allow decisions to be made when the data are uncertain. These tables were part of a NCEAS working group's analysis of these classification methods. The three classifications protocols that these tables look at are: The IUCN Red List criteria, The Heritage method and the Millsap method. They use 18 different assessors that interpret the same data and look at the main causes for discrepancies in species classifications. These tables are part of Tracey Jane Regan's thesis titled, "Evaluation Methods for Estimating Extinction Risk" that was submitted to the School of Botany, January 2004. Tracy was a member of the NCEAS working group titled "Developing and testing methods for classifying species conservation status and estimating risk".
