At-sea seabird censuses. Data on the species encountered (including marine mammals), their abundance, distribution and behavior. Data collected aboard cruises off the coast of the Western Antarctic Penninsula, 1993 - 2018.

The objectives of the LTER seabird component during the 92-93 season cruises were similar. These objectives included 1) determining the pelagic abundance and distribution of Adelie Penguins, 2) examining how the physical and biological characteristics of the marine environment influence these parameters and, 3) using these data to identify foraging areas that may be important to Adelie populations being studied as part of land-based work at Palmer Station. Secondary objectives included documenting the abundance and distribution of other seabirds and marine mammals within the LTER study area. The focus of the January cruise was the nearshore foraging habitat,which required sampling at smaller scales. All seabird censuses were thus conducted within approximately 100 kms of Palmer Station while traversing a sampling grid with stations at 10km intervals. The first two days (18-20 January) of this cruise were spent covering the selected grid as rapidly as possible resulting in 45 transects spaced at 45-60 minute intervals. There were no stops at the 10km stations during this Fast Grid phase. Upon completion of the Fast Grid, a force 12 gale suspended data collection for 24 hours. From January 22-25 the grid direction was reversed and the grid repeated. During this Slow Grid phase, 2-M net tows were done at 10km intervals and BOPS and 1-M and 2-M net tows every 20 km. All seabird censuses during the cruise were done using the procedures outlined in the previous paragraph.

Seventy-two 30-minute transects and 15 station censuses were completed during the January cruise. Athough seabirds were widely distributed throughout the study area, the highest densities and greatest biomass occurred consistently within 2-5 km of Anvers Island and several major island groups to the south and west near the Antarctic Peninsula. Adelie Penguins were the dominant component of this seabird assemblage in terms of both abundance and biomass. South Polar Skuas ranked second and Black-browed Al

Mammal Species Commonly Present at Barro Colorado Island

Patterns of biodiversity, such as the increase toward the tropics and the peaked curve during ecological succession, are fundamental phenomena for ecology. Such patterns have multiple, interacting causes, but temperature emerges as a dominant factor across organisms from microbes to trees and mammals, and across terrestrial, marine, and freshwater environments. However, there is little consensus on the underlying mechanisms, even as global temperatures increase and the need to predict their effects becomes more pressing. The purpose of this project is to generate and test theory for how temperature impacts biodiversity through its effect on biochemical processes and metabolic rate. A combination of standardized surveys in the field and controlled experiments in the field and laboratory measure diversity of three taxa -- trees, invertebrates, and microbes -- and key biogeochemical processes of decomposition in seven forests distributed along a geographic gradient of increasing temperature from cold temperate to warm tropical.

Importance of riparian reserves and other forest fragments for small mammal diversity in disturbed and converted forest landscapes

<b>Description: </b><p>The primary objective of this study was to document the species richness, community composition of the small mammals in riparian remnants within oil palm plantation and in degraded forests. The purpose is to assess the value of retaining riparian remnants within oil palm plantation and logged forest habitats for small mammals conservation. <br>Main questions <br>1. Is there a difference in species richness and community composition of small mammals in riparian remnants within oil palm and logged forests? <br>2. What effects do maintaining riparian remnants in oil palm and logged forests have on small mammal diversity? <br>3. Does the structure and width of riparian remnants in oil palm and logged forests affect small mammal species diversity? <br>4. How does the structure of riparian reserves could be managed to improve the extent to which they retain small mammals communities in oil palm and logged forests?<br>Methods<br>Sampling will be conducted at several sites representing four habitat treatments: (1) riparian reserves in old growth forests as control treatment (at Maliau Basin Conservation Area); (2) riparian reserves of different widths in logged forests (SAFE project area); (3) riparian remnants of different widths in oil palm (south of SAFE project area); and (4) oil palm without any riparian remnants (south of SAFE project area). In addition, sampling was conducted in other forest remnants within oil palm habitats. Each habitat treatment will be represented by three sites serving as replicates. <br>Used a grid trapping of 4 x 12 grid points (23m spacing) for sampling the small mammals. We shall establish one grid at each site with 48 trap stations. Two wire-mesh cage traps (28 x 15 x 12.5 cm), baited with oil palm fruits, will be placed at each station. Trapping of small mammals and searchers for amphibians will be conducted in four sampling sessions. In each session we will visit randomly four sites representing the four habitat treatments. Each sampling session at each site will last for four months. Overall, each habitat treatment will be sampled three times over a 12 months period. The following variables will be collected for each sampling site to characterize the habitat structure: canopy cover, number of large and small logs, number of large and small trees, percentage leaf litter cover and other variables that may influence the distribution and abundance of small mammals.</p><p><b>Project: </b>This dataset was collected as part of the following SAFE research project: <a href="https://www.safeproject.net/projects/project_view/3"><b>Importance of riparian reserves and other forest fragments for mammal and amphibian diversity in disturbed and converted forest landscapes</b></a></p><p><b>Funding: </b>These data were collected as part of research funded by: </p><ul><li>Universiti Malaysia Sabah (Grant)</li></ul><p>This dataset is released under the CC-BY 4.0 licence, requiring that you cite the dataset in any outputs, but has the additional condition that you acknowledge the contribution of these funders in any outputs.</p><p></p><p><b>Permits: </b>These data were collected under permit from the following authorities:</p><ul><li>Sabah biodiversity council (Research licence Local)</li></ul><p></p><p><b>XML metadata: </b>GEMINI compliant metadata for this dataset is available <a href="https://www.safeproject.net/datasets/xml_metadata?id=3908128">here</a></p><p><b>Files: </b>This consists of 1 file: UMS_Small_mammal_data.xlsx</p><p><b>UMS_Small_mammal_data.xlsx</b></p><p>This file contains dataset metadata and 1 data tables:</p><ol><li><p><b>Data</b> (described in worksheet Data)</p><p>Description: small mammal presence and absense</p><p>Number of fields: 29</p><p>Number of data rows: 140</p><p>Fields: </p><ul><li><b>landuse</b>: Habitat type (Field type: categorical)</li><li><b>site</b>: Location of sampling (Field type: location)</li><li><b>plot</b>: Plot name (Field type: categorical)</li><li><b>day</b>: Day of sampling (Field type: categorical)</li><li><b>Callosciurus notatus</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Echinosorex gymnurus</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Haeromys margarettae</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Lariscus hosei</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Leopoldamys sabanus</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Maxomys alticola</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Maxomys baeodon</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Maxomys ochraceiventer</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Maxomys rajah</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Maxomys surifer</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Maxomys whiteheadi</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Niniventer cremoriventer</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Rattus exulans</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Rattus rattus</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Rattus tiomanicus</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Sundamys muelleri</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Sundasciurus hippurus</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Sundasciurus lowii</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Sundasciurus tenuis</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Trichys fasciculata</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Tupaia glis</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Tupaia gracilis</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Tupaia minor</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Tupaia tana</b>: Number of species caught (Field type: abundance)</li><li><b>Grand Total</b>: Total (Field type: numeric)</li></ul></li></ol><p><b>Date range: </b>2015-03-01 to 2019-04-30</p><p><b>Latitudinal extent: </b>4.5000 to 5.0700</p><p><b>Longitudinal extent: </b>116.7500 to 117.8200</p><p><b>Taxonomic coverage: </b><br> All taxon names are validated against the GBIF backbone taxonomy.

Core SAFE project small mammal trapping data

<b>Description: </b><p>This is the combined dataset for the SAFE project's core small mammal trapping programme, which was run from 2011-2014 by O.R. Wearn, from 2015-2017 by P. M. Chapman, and from 2018-2019 by S. Heon. In total, trapping grids have been run at 30 sites across the SAFE landscape and control areas, covering blocks D, E, F, OG1, OG2, OG3 and OP2. However, since 2014 trapping has been limited to 12 standard permanent grids which are resampled annually: two in D (the 100ha fragment site), six in E (two each in the 1, 10 and 100ha sites), two in OG2 at the Maliau Basin Conservation area and two in OP2 at the Selangan Batu Oil Palm estate. In 2018, 2 new mammal grids were added : Dmatrix-1 and Ematrix-1 grid. The following grids were dropped E1-1, E10-1, E100-1 and D100-1, while D1-2 and D10-2 were sampled. In 2019, OG2-N, trap lines 1-8 were not accessible due to a massive landslide. In replacement, lines 47-56 were added to the trap grid for OG2-N. trapping grids Dmatrix-2 and Ematrix-2 were also added. All the new grids are reflected on the locations sheet. One standard annual sampling session comprises 96 traps run for seven nights, and the first sheet in the dataset ("Deployment") records this as 672 rows detailing the basic outcome of each trap night in the sampling session. There are several grids which form exceptions to this trapping pattern; details of these are recorded in the metadata. The subsequent two sheets (Corrected_Trapping_Data and Raw_Trapping_Data) form a more detailed record of captured animals. These sheets have the non-capture rows removed, along with most of the basic trap location and state data; however they can easily be linked back to the relevant rows in "Deployment" by the date and the unique trap identifier. At first capture, all possible details of captured animals are recorded, including age, sex, biometric measurements, crude estimates of parasite load, and the ID of any associated samples. All animals captured in good health were fitted with a Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) Tag so the unique 10-digit alphanumeric number associated with each PIT tag is also recorded. Upon recapture, the animals are merely weighed and the PIT tag number and trap location recorded; this is partly to save time and partly to avoid unneccessary repeat anaesthesia. In 2018, Prevost's squirrel with the species code PVSQ was added into the species list. <br>The entire dataset from 2011-2017 was extensively error-checked by PMC in 2018, then from 2018-2019 by SH with many errors identified, recorded, and where possible, rectified. These errors are most frequently duplications or typos in the PIT tag string. Where these errors are unresolvable, the true unique ID of the individual is no longer certain, and its independence from other individuals cannot be guaranteed. These records will require omitting from most analyses. The detailed dataset with capture data is therefore presented in both its raw and corrected forms. ("Raw_Trapping_Data" and "Corrected_Trapping_Data", respectively). In the corrected datasheet, all the resolvable errors have been corrected, with a brief note made of what was done and why. Notes have also been added to irresolvable errors briefly explaining the problem, and recommending omission from analyses where appropriate. We strongly recommend that all users rely on the corrected version; however we also include the raw data for completeness. In 2018, an additional sheet - general site information details was added</p><p><b>Project: </b>This dataset was collected as part of the following SAFE research project: <a href="https://www.safeproject.net/projects/project_view/140"><b>The impacts of tropical forest fragmentation on dispersal behaviour of mammal communities</b></a></p><p><b>XML metadata: </b>GEMINI compliant metadata for this dataset is available <a href="https://www.safeproject.net/datasets/xml_metadata?id=3955050">here</a></p><p><b>Files: </b>This consists of 1 file: SAFE_Core_Small_Mammal_Data_V3_2019_ROB_SUI.xlsx</p><p><b>SAFE_Core_Small_Mammal_Data_V3_2019_ROB_SUI.xlsx</b></p><p>This file contains dataset metadata and 4 data tables:</p><ol><li><p><b>Basic trap outcome data</b> (described in worksheet Deployment)</p><p>Description: This is the basic trapping data covering the outcome of every trap night since the start of the study in 2011.

This is applied to all grids which were trapped in the standard pattern of 96 traps run for seven consecutive days. There are five exceptions: OG2-E in 2011, D100-2 in 2011, D100-1 in 2012, F100-1 in 2012, and F100-2 in 2012.

All &quot;target&quot; small mammals receive an identifying code for brevity (see the Taxa sheet) while occasional caputures of &quot;non-target&quot; taxa (larger mammals, other vertebrates) are referred to in full.

Various other &quot;generic&quot; individual IDs have been applied to occasional animals which were untagged but somehow deemed to be otherwise identifiable.

This should be used in preference to &quot;PIT_Tag/ID&quot; as resolvable errors have been amended. In some occasional cases this ID does not correspond to the (corrected) PIT tag string. In these cases a standardised generic ID was applied, generally under two possible conditions: 1.) The individual was released alive without tagging but there is effectively no chance of recapture (such as an animal on the last day of trapping in an isolated block which was not trapped subsequently). 2.) The animal was a new, untagged individual found dead in the trap. Case 1: individuals recieve an identifier comprised of the species code and a unique three-digit number e.g. &quot;WH001&quot;.

Omissions are usually due to the individual ID or species ID of a capture being uncertain. Several common omission reasons are recorded with standard prhases in capitals for clarity: these include escapes, animals released untagged for various reasons (including non-target captures), and dead individuals where species identification was impossible or where it was uncertain if the individual was new or a recapture. More complex cases are discussed individually. (Field type: comments)</li><li><b>Other_Notes</b>: Original supplementary field notes on the trap outcome or the animal captured.
