title: PISCO: Physical Oceanography: bottom-mounted ADCP data: Hopkins Marine Station, California, USA (HMS001)

description: This metadata record describes bottom-mounted ADCP data collected at Hopkins Marine Station, California, USA, by PISCO. Measurements were collected using an RDI 600 kHz Workhorse Sentinel ADCP beginning 2005-04-02. The instrument depth was 019 meters, in an overall water depth of 20 meters (both relative to Mean Sea Level, MSL). The instrument was programmed with a sampling interval of 0.1 minutes and a vertical resolution of 1 meter.

title: YFGU Nest Monitoring on Isla Alcatraz, Bahía Kino, Sonora, Mexico

description: On the 1st ,7th , 18th, and 25th of April 2008, Yellow-footed Gull nests were counted and number of eggs and chicks per nest per “zone” were quantified on Isla Alcatraz, Bahía Kino, Sonora, Mexico, by senior project student Abram Fleishman. On the 1st and 7th only the beach areas of the lower bajada were counted. On the 18th the entire lower bajada was counted. On the 25th only the “south” section was counted very quickly and thus many of the birds did not flush. The dataset contains the following variables: Date, Time Start, Duration (min), Observer, Temperature, Wind speed and direction, Sky, Section (zone), # Nests with adult but no eggs or chicks, # Nests with 1 egg, # Nests with 2 eggs, # Nests with 3 eggs, # Nests with 7 egg, # Nests 2 egg/1 chick, # nests with 1 egg/2 chicks, # Nests 3 chicks, # Nests that the adult did not flush, Section total nests, Island total nests.

title: Project ALAS: Arthropods of La Selva

description: Project ALAS is a large-scale inventory of arthropod diversity along an elevational gradient in Costa Rica, from lowland tropical rainforest through montane forest to cloud forest at nearly 3000 m elevation. The project has involved more than 100 systematist and ecologist collaborators. The ALAS website (http://purl.oclc.org/alas) offers dynamic access to the ALAS database, running under onboard web server of the database management application, Biota (http://viceroy.eeb.uconn.edu/Biota). With more than 300,000 specimens of more than 12,000 species, the database covers more than 100 families, superfamilies, and orders of insects, mites, and spiders. Images are included for some groups. The ALAS database offers full coverage of Darwin Core (http://wiki.tdwg.org/twiki/bin/view/DarwinCore/WebHome) elements for each specimen, as well as additional data. Project ALAS was funded by the US National Science Foundation between 1994 and 2006.
