The Knowledge Network for Biocomplexity

The Knowledge Network for Biocomplexity (KNB) is a national network intended to facilitate ecological and environmental research on biocomplexity. For scientists, the KNB is an efficient way to discover, access, interpret, integrate and analyze complex ecological data from a highly-distributed set of field stations, laboratories, research sites, and individual researchers.

National Biological Information Infrastructure

The National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII) is a broad, collaborative program to provide increased access to data and information on the nation's biological resources. The NBII links diverse, high-quality biological databases, information products, and analytical tools maintained by NBII partners and other contributors in government agencies, academic institutions, non-government organizations, and private industry.

Organization of Biological Field Stations

The OBFS Data Registry is the primary source for comprehensive information about scientific and research data sets collected within or under the auspices of the Organization of Biological Field Stations. This project is a cooperative effort of OBFS, the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS), the UC Natural Reserve System, and the LTER Network Office. The Data Registry is based on software developed by the Knowledge Network for Biocomplexity (KNB), and houses metadata that are compliant with Ecological Metadata Language (EML). Credit for the data sets in this registry goes to the investigators who collected the data, and also to the OBFS sites and system for providing an effective and pleasant environment for research and education at the individual research stations.

USGS Water Resources Division

The USGS investigates the occurrence, quantity, quality, distribution, and movement of surface and underground waters and disseminates the data to the public, State and local governments, public and private utilities, and other Federal agencies involved with managing our water resources. This website provides access to water-resources data collected throughout Florida. This data is collected by the U.S. Geological Survey with support from Federal, State, and local cooperators.

NOAA Tides and Currents

NOAA Tides and Currents, managed by the Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS), is the portal to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's vast collection of oceanographic and meteorological data (historical and real-time), predictions, and nowcasts and forecasts.

Atlantic Oceanographic & Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), Hurricane Research Division (HRD) Hurricane Data

NOAA's Hurricane Research Division has a variety of data sets that have been collected during their annual Hurricane Field Program. This consists mostly of data collected by NOAA aircraft flying into and around hurricanes, but also includes wind field analyses, land based radar loops, and data archived from U.S. Air Force reconnaissance flights.
