Owner Advantage in the fiddler crab, Uca mjoebergi. Are owners more...
School of Biological Sciences (SBS), University of Tasmania (UTAS)
Resource owners generally win contests against intruders, a phenomenon referred to as the 'Owner Advantage' (OA). Uca mjoebergi is a typical fiddler crab that is highly... -
Age vs Depth profile of core GC10, collected from the Capricorn Channel off...
National Institute of Water and Atmosphere (NIWA)
A gravity core (GC10) was collected from a depth of 335 mbsl within the Capricorn Channel, southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Isotopic values for 18O and 13C were obtained from... -
The use of claw colour and pattern for species recognition in the fiddler...
Australian National University
In the fiddler crab Uca mjoebergi, males attract females to their burrows by waving their enlarged yellow claw. Colour is clearly involved in species recognition in U.... -
Burrow tenure in the fiddler crab Uca capricornis
Australian National University
Crabs sometimes vacate their territories due to continued harassment by their neighbours. To determine whether male-female pairs were longer lasting than male-male pairs, we... -
Ocean temperatures over time estimated from planktonic foraminifera...
Australian National University
In recent years the term 'enhanced greenhouse effect' has become well known in modern society and yet aspects of this possible 'future climate' are poorly understood. The... -
The relative abundance (%) of planktonic foraminifera over time in core MD...
Australian National University
The advent of deep-sea drilling in the 1950's prompted the use of planktonic foraminifera (unicellular protozans) as palaeoceanographic indicators. They provide a natural... -
Oxygen isotope (18-O) values for 5 different foraminiferal species down the...
National Institute of Water and Atmosphere (NIWA)
A gravity core (GC12) was collected from a depth of 990.5 mbsl within the Capricorn Channel, southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The 18-O values of the different foraminiferal... -
Secchi Disc data measured during a high rainfall event in Port Jackson, 21...

A study of the response of phytoplankton to rainfall in Sydney Harbour on 21st October 2004 is reported here. Sydney Harbour is an important port and recreational region for the... -
Marine algal culture collection
School of BioSciences, The University of Melbourne
This dataset provides details of over 1700 marine algal samples collected throughout the world between 1964 and 2010. The algal samples are kept in laboratory cultures at the... -
Natural male-female interactions and territoriality in the fiddler crab Uca...
Australian National University
The behaviour of U. capricornis is not well-known. Consequently, observations were made for approximately 1100 hours over 4 seasons to obtain a general picture of their social... -

Age vs. Depth of core BAR 9403 (located off the coast of Sumatra). Age has...
Australian National University
The age with depth of core BAR9403 is calculated through 18O values, which are then correlated with the SPECMAP age-model. Based upon these measurements the age at the deepest... -
