2-Dimensional habitat files for 47 representative marine species

<p><strong>2D marine species habitats in NetCDF format on 0.5*0.5 degree global regular grid.</strong></p> <p>Based on Close et al. (2006) and&nbsp;converted from .CSV format.&nbsp;</p> <p>Filename is in format &#39;presence_speciesnumber.nc&#39; where species numbers are listed in the README.txt file (identifier for each species). The README.txt file further contains each species&#39; species_group which is the assigned depth group for each species (1=0-200m epipelagic, 2=200-1000m mesopelagic, 3=sea floor demersal) and species_name which is the&nbsp;Latin name of each species with underscore in between.</p> <p>The species occurs where the variable &#39;presence&#39; equals 1 (in the accompanying paper we assume this to be the 1995-2014 climatological mean distribution).</p> <p>In the NetCDF files, the variable &#39;presence&#39; has as an attribute &#39;species&#39; which contains the Latin species name without underscore.</p>

Smartbay Marine Species Object Detection Training dataset

<h1>Training dataset</h1> <p>The SmartBay Observatory in Galway Bay is an important contribution by Ireland to the growing global network of real-time data capture systems deployed within the ocean &ndash; technology giving us new insights into the ocean which we have not had before.</p> <p>The observatory was installed on the seafloor 1.5km off the coast of Spiddal, County Galway, Ireland . The observatory uses cameras, probes and sensors to permit continuous and remote live underwater monitoring. This observatory equipment allows ocean researchers unique real-time access to monitor ongoing changes in the marine environment. Data relating to the marine environment at the site is transferred in real-time from the SmartBay Observatory through a fibre optic telecommunications cable to the Marine Institute headquarters and onwards onto the internet. The data includes a live video stream, the depth of the observatory node, the sea temperature and salinity, and estimates of the chlorophyll and turbidity levels in the water which give an indication of the volume of phytoplankton and other particles, such as sediment, in the water.</p> <p>The Smartbay Marine Species Object Detection training Dataset is an initial Bounding Box Annotated image dataset used in attempting to Train a YOLOv8 Object Detection Model to classify the Marine Fauna observed in the Smartbay Observatory Video footage using species names.</p> <p>The imagery used in this training dataset consists of image frame captures from the <a href="https://smartbay.marine.ie">Smartbay</a> video Archive files, CC-BY imagery from the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.minka-sdg.org">www.minka-sdg.org</a> website and images taken by Eva Cullen in the "<a href="https://nationalaquarium.ie/">Galway Atlantaquaria</a>" Aquarium in Galway, Ireland.</p> <p>The imagery were annotated using CVAT, collated on <a href="https://www.roboflow.com/">Roboflow</a> and exported in YOLOv8 training dataset format.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

ZooBase: A global synthesis of marine zooplankton species occurrences.

<p><em><strong>Description of the methods used to implement the present ZooBase dataset (extarct from Section A.2 from the Methods of Benedetti et al., 2021).</strong></em></p> <p>A new dataset of global zooplankton species occurrences was compiled in a comparable fashion to that put together for phytoplankton (Righetti et al., 2020). Prior to retrieving the occurrence data online, we first identified the phyla (Order/Class/Family) that comprise the bulk of extant oceanic zooplankton communities: Copelata (i.e. appendicularians), Ctenophora, Cubozoa (i.e. box jellyfish), Euphausiidae (i.e. krill), Foraminifera, Gymnosomata (i.e. sea angels, pteropods), Hydrozoa (i.e. jellyfish), Hyperiidea (i.e. amphipods), Myodocopina (i.e. ostracods), Mysidae (i.e. small pelagic shrimps resembling krill), Neocopepoda, Podonidae and <em>Penilia</em> <em>avirostris</em> (i.e. cladocerans), Sagittoidea (i.e. chaetognaths), Scyphozoa (i.e. jellyfish), Thaliacea (i.e. salps, doliolids and pyrosomes), Thecosomata (i.e. pteropods), and four families of pelagic Polychaeta (i.e. worms) that are often found in the zooplankton and whose species are known to display holoplanktonic lifecycles (Tomopteridae, Alciopidae, Lopadorrhynchidae, Typhloscolecidae). The presence data associated with species belonging to these groups were retrieved from OBIS and GBIF between the 12/04/2018 and the 18/04/2018 using online queries via the R packages RPostgreSQL, robis and rgbif. Since the Neocopepoda infra-class comprise several thousands of benthic and parasitic taxa (https://copepodes.obs-banyuls.fr/en/), a preliminary selection of the non-parasitic planktonic species had to be carried out prior to the online downloading using the species list of Razouls et al. (https://copepodes.obs-banyuls.fr/en/) as a reference. The spatial distributions of the groups cited above were first inspected using GBIF&rsquo;s and OBIS&rsquo;s online mapping tools to evaluate the potential number of overlapping observations between the two databases. As a result of their relatively low contributions to total observations/diversity, and very high overlap between databases, the occurrences of Cladocera and Polychaeta were retrieved from OBIS only (which usually harbours more occurrences). On top of the data collected from OBIS and GBIF, the copepod occurrences from Cornils et al. (2018) and the pteropod occurrences from the MAREDAT initiative (Buitenhuis et al., 2013) were added to the dataset. We discarded records that: (i) presented at least one missing spatial coordinate, (ii) were associated with an incomplete sampling date (d/m/y), (iii) were associated with a year of collection older than 1800, (iv) were not associated with any sampling depth, (v) were not identified down to the species level. Occurrences associated with grid cells shallower than 10m were removed (bathymetry data from ETOPOv1 at a 15min resolution, downloaded using the &#39;marmap&#39; R package). Finally, every species name was then carefully examined and compared to the taxonomic reference list of the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS; <a href="http://www.marinespecies.org">http://www.marinespecies.org</a>) for all taxa. The AphiaID and the Status were retreived from WoRMS based on the ScientificName. To remove the duplicate occurrences due to the highly overlapping source archives (GBIF and OBIS), a unique occurrenceID was given to each record based on rounded spatial coordinates (closest 0.1&deg;x0.1&deg;), rounded depth layer (10m depth layers), month and year of the occurrence and the acccpted species name (e.g., AphiaID).</p> <p><strong>This project has received funding from the European Union&rsquo;s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 862923.
