Monthly maps of Warm Core Ring Occupancy and occurrences of Salinity Maximum Intrusions in the Slope Sea (1990-2019)

<p>This dataset presents two important variables across the shelfbreak in the Northwest Atlantic: (i) Warm Core Ring Occupancy in the Slope sea proximate to the shelfbreak; and (ii) locations of Salinity maximum intrusions in the shelf. Monthly fields of both of these fields together are presented for the period 1990-2019 with file name format&nbsp;<em>smax_ring_mm_yyyy.jpg.&nbsp;</em>The gray and red dots on the shelf represent locations of profiles taken from the Ecosystem Monitoring Program&rsquo;s (EcoMon) hydrographic data (available from the National Centers for Environmental Information World Ocean Database accessible at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/world-ocean-database">www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/world-ocean-database</a>). Red dots show locations of profiles which contained mid-depth salinity maximum intrusions, gray dots are profiles without any mid-depth salinity maximum intrusion. Profiles with intrusions were identified using the methodology of Gawarkiewicz et al., 2022. The ring occupancy was calculated from a Warm Core Ring Tracking dataset with ring tracks from 2000-2010 and 2011- 2020 available from Zenodo (<a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6436380">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6436380</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7406675">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7406675</a>) and ring trajectories from&nbsp;1978 through 1999 available from the Bedford Institute of Oceanography, Canada. To calculate the ring occupancy the region was sub-divided into 0.1 by 0.1 degree bins. Ring trajectories and approximate geographical range (calculated from the ring area, assuming the ring is a perfect circle) were overlain on this region and the days rings are present in each bin are counted in units of ring days. A ring day is the presence of one single ring in a bin during a given day. These ring day counts were converted to percentages, dividing by days in the given month and multiplying by 100. For more details see Silver et al., 2022 and Salois et al., 2023. From these figures one can see the spatial relationship between Warm Core Rings and Salinity Maximum Intrusions, with clusters of intrusions occurring in areas adjacent to high ring occupancy.&nbsp;</p> <p>An animation of two particular years is also presented in&nbsp;<em>movie_smax_ring_1993_2012.gif</em>&nbsp;to highlight this relationship: Low ring year (1993) leading to fewer Smax intrusion and high ring year (2012) leading to more intrusions.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Gawarkiewicz, G., Fratantoni, P., Bahr, F., &amp; Ellertson, A.

Data from: Area of habitat maps and validated occurrences for neotropical birds of conservation concern

<p>Understanding species distributions is essential for advancing bird conservation, especially in the rapidly changing landscapes of the Neotropics, where habitat loss and degradation are accelerating. Area of Habitat (AOH) maps offer valuable spatial tools for illustrating species distributions by highlighting potentially suitable habitats within their geographic range. In this study, we generated AOH maps for 713 neotropical bird species of conservation concern, which includes species listed as globally or nationally threatened, endemic, or with restricted ranges. Using primary biodiversity data and a structured geospatial workflow, we refined approximately 2.5 million occurrence records through a flagging process and validated 50,743 records manually.<strong> </strong>This unparalleled effort led to the creation of high-quality AOH maps, along with altitude-corrected Extent of Occurrence (EOO-DEM) and Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) range maps.&nbsp; Our AOH maps significantly improved species distribution predictions for 82% of species, over EOO-DEM maps. The validated occurrences and AOH maps produced in this study have wide-ranging applications, providing a valuable basis for the development of new species distribution models and for evaluating species&rsquo; natural history, extinction risk, and habitat threats. They also support the identification of priority areas for strategic conservation investments. Importantly, these maps played a key role in systematic conservation planning analyses for the Conserva Aves initiative, which is facilitating the creation of more than 80 new protected areas across Latin America, safeguarding 2 million hectares and improving the management of an additional 2 million hectares (<a href="https://conserva-aves.org/">https://conserva-aves.org/</a>).</p>

OMOP2OBO Condition Occurrence Mappings

<p><strong>OMOP2OBO Condition Occurrence Mappings V1.0</strong></p> <p>These mappings were created by the OMOP2OBO mapping algorithm (see links below).&nbsp;&nbsp;OMOP2OBO - the first health system-wide, disease-agnostic mappings between standardized clinical terminologies and eight Open Biomedical Ontology (OBO) Foundry ontologies spanning diseases, phenotypes, anatomical entities, cell types, organisms, chemicals, vaccines, and proteins. These mappings are also the first to be explicitly created using standard terminologies in the Observational Medical Outcomes (OMOP) common data model (CDM), ensuring both semantic and clinical interoperability across a space of N conditions (and N relationships curated in these ontologies).</p> <p>The mappings in this repository were created between OMOP standard condition occurrence concepts (i.e., SNOMED CT) to the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) and the (Mondo). The National Library of Medicine&#39;s Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) Semantic Types are first used to filter out all concepts that did not have a biological origin (accidents, injuries, external complications, and findings without clear interpretations). Then, the Semantic Type was used to prioritize the mapping of HPO concepts to findings and symptoms and Mondo to Semantic Types indicative of disease. For these&nbsp;OMOP domains, owl:intersectionOf (&ldquo;and&rdquo;), and owl:unionOf (&ldquo;or&rdquo;) constructors were used to construct semantically expressive mappings.</p> <p><br> <strong>Mapping Details</strong><br> Mappings included in this set were generated automatically using OMOP2OBO or through the use of a Bag-of-words embedding model using TF-IDF. Cosine similarity is used to compute similarity scores between all pairwise combinations of OMOP and OBO concepts and ancestor concepts. To improve the efficiency of this process, the algorithm searches only the top 𝑛 most similar results and keeps the top 75th percentile among all pairs with scores &gt;= 0.25.&nbsp;Manually created mappings are also included.</p> <p><strong><em>Mapping Categories</em></strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Automatic One-to-One Concept</strong>: Exact label or synonym, dbXRef, or expert validated mapping @ concept-level; 1:1</li> <li><strong>Automatic One-to-One Ancestor:</strong> Exact label or synonym, dbXRef, or expert validated mapping @ concept ancestor-level; 1:1</li> <li><strong>Automatic One-to-Many Concept: </strong>Exact label or synonym, dbXRef, cosine similarity, or expert validated mapping @ concept-level; 1:Many</li> <li><strong>Automatic One-to-Many Ancestor:</strong> Exact label or synonym, dbXRef, cosine similarity, or expert validated mapping @ concept-level; 1:Many</li> <li><strong>Manual One-to-One:&nbsp;</strong>Hand mapping created using expert suggested resources; 1:1</li> <li><strong>Manual One-to-Many:</strong>&nbsp;Hand mapping created using expert suggested resources; 1:Many</li> <li><strong>Cosine Similarity:</strong> score suggested mapping -- manually verified</li> <li><strong>UnMapped:</strong> No suitable mapping or not mapped type</li> </ul> <p><br> <em><strong>Mapping Statistics</strong></em><br> Additional statistics have been provided for the mappings and are shown in the table below.

L4D - Probability map of giant trees occurrence (> 70 m) in the Brazilian Amazon

<p>The probability of&nbsp;giant trees occurrence (&gt; 70m) based on environmental conditions.&nbsp;The observations higher than 70 m were filtered out and used to adjust an envelope model based on maximum entropy. In its optimization routine, the algorithm tracked how much the model gain was improved when small changes were made to each coefficient value associated with a particular variable.&nbsp;The resulting map of predicted occurrence of the tallest trees in the Amazon from the MaxEnt model shows that the probability of maximum tree height occurrence is highest in the northeastern Amazon (Fig.&nbsp;6), more specifically in the Roraima and Guianan Lowlands. We considered&nbsp;18 environmental variables: (1) fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (FAPAR; in %); (2) elevation above sea level (Elevation; in m);&nbsp; (3) the component of the horizontal wind towards east, i.e. zonal velocity (u-speed ; in m s<sup>-1</sup>); (4) the component of the horizontal wind towards north, i.e. meridional velocity (v-speed ; in m s<sup>-1</sup>); (5) the number of days not affected by cloud cover (clear days; in days yr<sup>-1</sup>); (6) the number of days with precipitation above 20 mm (days &gt; 20mm; in days yr<sup>-1</sup>&nbsp;); (7) the number of months with precipitation below 100 mm (months &lt; 100mm; in months yr<sup>-1</sup>&nbsp;) ; (8) lightning frequency (flashes rate); (9) annual precipitation (in mm); (10) potential evapotranspiration (in mm); (11) coefficient of variation of precipitation (precipitation seasonality; in %); (12) amount of precipitation on the wettest month (precip. wettest; in mm); (13) amount of precipitation on the driest month (precip. driest; in mm); (14) mean annual temperature (in &deg;C); (15)&nbsp; standard deviation of temperature (temp. seasonality; in &deg;C); (16) annual maximum temperature (in &deg;C); (17) soil clay content (in %); and (18) soil water content (in %).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>The provided image is a theoretical map of giant tree density in the Amazon, generated from a spatial model based on the **Random Forest** algorithm. The map displays the spatial distribution of tree density, representing the number of trees taller than 60 meters per square kilometer (trees/km&sup2;). The model was developed using climatic, topographic, and soil variables to predict areas with higher concentrations of these giant trees.</p> <p>The areas are color-coded according to different density ranges, where:<br>- Lighter shades indicate lower tree density (&le; 5 trees/km&sup2;),<br>- Darker shades indicate higher density (up to 141 trees/km&sup2;).</p> <p>Biogeographic provinces within the Amazon biome, such as the **Guiana Shield**, **Xingu-Tapaj&oacute;s**, and **Roraima**, are highlighted, showing distinct density patterns across the Amazon region. This map is a valuable tool for understanding the spatial distribution of giant trees in the Amazon and plays a crucial role in conservation efforts and ecological monitoring in the region.</p>

Data from: Bedrock geological map predictions for Phanerozoic fossil occurrences

<p>This is the supplementary data repository of the <em>Paleobiology</em> paper titled <em>Bedrock Geological Map Predictions for Phanerozoic Fossil Occurrences</em>. Geographically-explicit, taxonomically resolved fossil occurrences are necessary for reconstructing macroevolutionary patterns and for testing a wide range of hypotheses in the Earth and life sciences. Heterogeneity in the spatial and temporal distribution of fossil occurrences in the Paleobiology Database (PBDB) is attributable to several different factors, including turnover among biological communities, socioeconomic disparities in the intensity of paleontological research, and geological controls on the distribution and fossil yield of sedimentary deposits. Here we use the intersection of global geologic map data from Macrostrat and fossil collections in the PBDB to assess the extent to which the potentially fossil-bearing, surface-expressed sedimentary record has yielded fossil occurrences. We find a significant and moderately strong positive correlation between geologic map area and the number of fossil occurrences. This correlation is consistent regardless of map unit age and binning protocol, except at period level; the Neogene and Quaternary have non-marine map units covering large areas and yielding fewer occurrences than expected. The sedimentary record of North America and Europe yields significantly more fossil occurrences per sedimentary area than similarly-aged deposits in most of the rest of the world. However, geographic differences in area and age of sedimentary deposits lead to regionally different expectations for fossil occurrences. Using the sampling of surface-expressed sedimentary units in North America and Europe as a predictor for what might be recoverable from the surface-expressed sedimentary deposits of other regions, we find that the rest of the globe is approximately 45% as well sampled in the PBDB. Using age and area of bedrock and sampling in North America and Europe as a basis for prediction, we estimate that over 639 thousand occurrences from outside of these regions would need to be added to the PBDB to achieve global geological parity in sampling. In general, new terrestrial fossil occurrences are expected to have the greatest impact on macroevolutionary patterns. </p>
