Summary Data: Monitoring and Observations Effort by Marine Ecoregion

Created 07/06/2025

Updated 07/06/2025

Summary of marine environmental monitoring and observation effort by networks associated with three Australian National Research Infrastructures from 2010 to the present organised by State/Territory, IMCRA bioregion, feature type and year. Metadata records were aggregated from biodiversity survey events from the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA, https://ala.org.au/), marine observations collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS, https://imos.org.au/) and site-based monitoring and survey efforts by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN, https://tern.org.au/). See Aggregated Data: Environmental Monitoring and Observations Effort for information on the metadata included. The elements in this dataset are as follows: 1. Year in which activity occurred (2010 to present) 2. State/Territory 3. IMCRA4.0 mesoscale marine bioregion 4. Feature ID from EcoAssets Earth Science Features vocabulary 5. Feature name associated with feature ID 6. Feature facet 1 – high-level facet based on feature ID – a top-level GCMD Earth Science category (6 terms) 7. Feature facet 2 – intermediate-level facet based on feature ID – second-level GCMD/ANSL category (29 terms) 8. Feature facet 3 – lower-level facet with more fine-grained taxonomic structure based on feature ID – typically a third-level GCMD/ANSL category (36 terms) 9.
