Project portal for publishing, citing, sharing and discovering research data. Software, protocols, and community connections for creating research data repositories that automate professional archival practices, guarantee long term preservation, and enable researchers to share, retain control of, and receive web visibility and formal academic citations for their data contributions. Researchers, data authors, publishers, data distributors, and affiliated institutions all receive appropriate credit. Hosts multiple dataverses. Each dataverse contains studies or collections of studies, and each study contains cataloging information that describes the data plus the actual data files and complementary files. Data related to social sciences, health, medicine, humanities or other sciences with an emphasis in human behavior are uploaded to the IQSS Dataverse Network (Harvard). You can create your own dataverse for free and start adding studies for your data files and complementary material (documents, software, etc). You may install your own Dataverse Network for your University or organization.

Passive and active source waveform data, event (earthquake) catalog, channel response data is available. This comprehensive data store of raw geophysical time-series data is collected from a large variety of sensors, courtesy of a vast array of US and International scientific networks, including seismometers (permanent and temporary), tilt and strain meters, infrasound, temperature, atmospheric pressure and gravimeters, to support basic research aimed at imaging the Earth's interior. IRIS also provides data and software for educational purposes. This consortium of over 100 US universities is dedicated to the operation of science facilities for the acquisition, management, and distribution of seismological data. IRIS programs contribute to scholarly research, education, earthquake hazard mitigation, and verification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. Data is stored at the IRIS Data Management Center in Seattle, Washington. They currently manage a large archive from over tens of thousands of seismic stations and ship hundreds of terabytes of data yearly.

Model repository and data related to earth-surface dynamics modeling. The CSDMS Modeling Tool (CMT) allows you to run and couple CSDMS model components on the CSDMS supercomputer in a user-friendly software environment. Components in the CMT are based on models, originally submitted to the CSDMS model repository, and now adapted to communicate with other models. The CMT tool is the environment in which you can link these components together to run new simulations. The CMT software runs on your own computer; but it communicates with the CSDMS HPCC, to perform the simulations. Thus, the CMT also offers you a relatively easy way of using the CSDMS supercomputer for model experiments. CSDMS deals with the Earth's surface - the ever-changing, dynamic interface between lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere. They are a diverse community of experts promoting the modeling of earth surface processes by developing, supporting, and disseminating integrated software modules that predict the movement of fluids, and the flux (production, erosion, transport, and deposition) of sediment and solutes in landscapes and their sedimentary basins. CSDMS: * Produces protocols for community-generated, continuously evolving, open software * Distributes software tools and models * Provides cyber-infrastructure to promote the quantitative modeling of earth surface processes * Addresses the challenging problems of surface-dynamic systems: self-organization, localization, thresholds, strong linkages, scale invariance, and interwoven biology & geochemistry * Enables the rapid development and application of linked dynamic models tailored to specific landscape basin evolution (LBE) problems at specific temporal and spatial scales * Partners with related computational and scientific programs to eliminate duplication of effort and to provide an intellectually stimulating environment * Supports a strong linkage between what is predicted by CSDMS codes and what is observed, both in nature and in physical experiments * Supports the imperatives in Earth Science research

MiMi Web gives you an easy to use interface to a rich NCIBI data repository for conducting your systems biology analyses. This repository includes the MiMI database, PubMed resources updated nightly, and text mined from biomedical research literature. The MiMI database comprehensively includes protein interaction information that has been integrated and merged from diverse protein interaction databases and other biological sources. With MiMI, you get one point of entry for querying, exploring, and analyzing all these data. MiMI provides access to the knowledge and data merged and integrated from numerous protein interactions databases and augments this information from many other biological sources. MiMI merges data from these sources with deep integration into its single database with one point of entry for querying, exploring, and analyzing all these data. MiMI allows you to query all data, whether corroborative or contradictory, and specify which sources to utilize. MiMI displays results of your queries in easy-to-browse interfaces and provides you with workspaces to explore and analyze the results. Among these workspaces is an interactive network of protein-protein interactions displayed in Cytoscape and accessed through MiMI via a MiMI Cytoscape plug-in. MiMI gives you access to more information than you can get from any one protein interaction source such as: * Vetted data on genes, attributes, interactions, literature citations, compounds, and annotated text extracts through natural language processing (NLP) * Linkouts to integrated NCIBI tools to: analyze overrepresented MeSH terms for genes of interest, read additional NLP-mined text passages, and explore interactive graphics of networks of interactions * Linkouts to PubMed and NCIBI's MiSearch interface to PubMed for better relevance rankings * Querying by keywords, genes, lists or interactions * Provenance tracking * Quick views of missing information across databases.

http://www.isi.edu/integration/karma/

An information integration software tool that enables users to integrate data from a variety of data sources including databases, spreadsheets, delimited text files, XML, JSON, KML and Web APIs. Users integrate information by modeling it according to an ontology of their choice using a graphical user interface that automates much of the process. Karma learns to recognize the mapping of data to ontology classes and then uses the ontology to propose a model that ties together these classes. Users then interact with the system to adjust the automatically generated model. During this process, users can transform the data as needed to normalize data expressed in different formats and to restructure it. Once the model is complete, users can publish the integrated data as RDF or store it in a database.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. The Catalog of Fishes is the authoritative reference for taxonomic fish names, featuring a searchable on-line database. The Catalog of Fishes covers more than 53,000 species and subspecies, over 10,000 genera and subgenera, and includes in excess of 16,000 bibliographic references. The Catalog of Fishes consists of three hardbound volumes of 900-1000 pages each, along with a CD-ROM. The online database is updated about every 8 weeks and is now about twice the size of the published version. It is one of the oldest and most complete databases for any large animal group. References are over 30,000. Valid species are over 30,000. This work is an essential reference for taxonomists, scientific historians, and for any specialist dealing with fishes. Entries for species, for example, consist of species/subspecies name, genus, author, date, publication, pages, figures, type locality, location of type specimen(s), current status (with references), family/subfamily, and important publication, taxonomic, or nomenclatural notes. Nearly all original descriptions have been examined, and much effort has gone into determining the location of type specimens. The Genera are updated from Eschmeyer''s 1990 Genera of Recent Fishes. Both genera and species are listed in a classification using recent taxonomic schemes. Also included are a lengthy list of museum acronyms, an interpretation of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, and Opinions of the International Commission involving fishes.
