Programs for the analysis of animal social structure (SOCPROG)

SOCPROG is a series of MATLAB programs written by Hal Whitehead for analyzing data on the social structure, population structure and movements of identified individuals. The programs are designed to be easy to use, most input is done through graphical user interfaces (i.e. windows with things to click on), and most things can be done without any knowledge of MATLAB (although this helps for custom options, figuring out errors, making your own extensions, etc.). The programs are also designed to b... [More]

PubMed Central

PubMed Central is a free digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature at the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH), developed and managed by NIH's National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in the National Library of Medicine (NLM). With PubMed Central, NLM is taking the lead in preserving and maintaining unrestricted access to the electronic literature, just as it has done for decades with the printed biomedical literature. PubMed Central aims to fill the role... [More]

PWRC Software Archive

The following programs were developed at PWRC and elsewhere for the analysis of animal populations for wildlife biologists/managers.

Pythagoras - Cetacean Theodolite Tracking

The program interfaces with a digital theodolite and provides a dynamic and user-friendly interface. The system collects, manages and analyzes theodolite data and calculates distance, bearing, and location information in real-time. It was designed to store theodolite station information (such as the observation height, geographical position of the station, and reference azimuth) for multiple stations. Pythagoras allows researchers to define their “fix type” objects, such as dolp... [More]

Quantum GIS

QGIS is a user friendly Open Source Geographic Information System (GIS) that runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OSX, and Windows. QGIS supports vector, raster, and database formats. It lets you browse and create map data on your computer. It supports many common spatial data formats (e.g. ESRI ShapeFile, geotiff). QGIS supports plugins to do things like display tracks from your GPS. QGIS is Open Source software and its free of cost.

Raven Pro

Raven is a software program for the acquisition, visualization, measurement, and analysis of sounds.

ReefBase

ReefBase gathers available knowledge about coral reefs into one information repository. It is intended to facilitate analyses and monitoring of coral reef health and the quality of life of reef-dependent people, and to support informed decisions about coral reef use and management.

ReefBase is the official database of the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network (GCRMN), as well as the International Coral Reef Action Network (ICRAN). The ReefBase Project is housed at the WorldFish Center ... [More]

Resources for Digital Media Tools

This website is a basic guide to digital media resources to help you get the most out of disseminating your information to a wider public. The particular focus is on geospatial technologies such as Google Earth and GPS, but additional technologies and software are also covered or will be added in the future.

Run Deep, But Not Silent

Mar. 16, 2005 - A new tagging device lets scientists 'go along for the ride' into the underwater world of whales

Scripps Institution of Oceanography Library

Offering much more than an ocean view and a great place to study, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Library is the largest oceanography library in the world, offering unparalleled resources in marine and earth sciences.

SeaLifeBase

A FishBase-like information system for marine organisms. It provides, for each species included, the biological information necessary to conduct biodiversity and ecosystem studies, taking advantage of lists of species already available on paper and electronically, and using the scientific names they provide as ‘hook’ to organize biodiversity information.

Shedding Light on Light in the Ocean

Oct. 15, 2004 - New research is illuminating an optically complex environment

Society for Marine Mammalogy

The Society for Marine Mammalogy, founded in 1981, aims to: 1) evaluate and promote the educational, scientific and managerial advancement of marine mammal science, 2) gather and disseminate to members of the Society, the public and public and private institutions, scientific, technical and management information through publications and meetings; and 3) provide scientific information, as required, on matters related to the conservation and management of marine mammal resources.

Software for population analysis

A fairly complete list of available software and related information to perform population analysis, particularly in terms of estimation of abundance, and both survival and recruitment rates (using both capture-recapture and recovery models).

Star-Oddi Ltd

Star-Oddi manufactures technology for researches on the oceans and its living resources, including archival tags, temperature and depth loggers, salinity data loggers. Submersable data loggers and underwater temperature recorders have been used in fish tags and tagging other marine animals and within the fields of fisheries research and oceanography.

Tethys Research Institute

The Photo Albums section of the web site features extensive photo collections of Mediterranean cetaceans.

The Environment Directory

The Environment Directory is one of the largest exclusively environmental organization directories on the web and includes sites from over 100 countries.

The Sea Around Us Project

The Sea Around Us Project investigates the impact of fisheries on the world's marine ecosystems. This is achieved by using a Geographic Information System (GIS) to map global fisheries catches from 1950 to the present, under explicit consideration of major critical habitats of fish, marine invertebrates, marine mammals and other components of marine biodiversity.

UNEP’s World Conservation Monitoring Centre

The United Nations Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) is the biodiversity assessment and policy implementation arm of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the world's foremost intergovernmental environmental organization. The centre has been in operation since 1989, combining scientific research with practical policy advice. UNEP-WCMC provides objective, scientifically rigorous products and services to help decision makers recognize the value of bi... [More]

Utila Centre for Marine Conservation

Research at UCME focuses on identifying and studying the factors that create, maintain and influence the islands bio-diversity. Whilst the range of topics and types of investigations vary, the underlying philosophy remains consistent; that UCME investigations provide information which can guide management decisions and underpin effective conservation. UCME is currently involved in research within the following areas: Coral reef health & population ecology,
Reef fish and fisheries, Popul... [More]
