Welcome to the NCEAS Data Registry. This is the primary source for
49
comprehensive information about scientific and research data sets collected
50
within or under the auspices of NCEAS.

Welcome to the NCEAS Data Repository. This repository contains information 
49
about the research data sets collected and collated within or under the 
50
auspices of NCEAS' funded activities.  Some of the data are synthetic
51
data sources that originated from the efforts of many contributors, while
52
others might have originated from a single investigator.  Credit for the
53
datasets in this repository goes to the investigators who collected the data,
54
and also to the NCEAS working groups and scientists who compiled the data
55
for synthetic purposes. See each data package for a list of the people and
56
institutions involved.

This project is an effort of the <a href="http://www.nceas.ucsb.edu">National 
55
Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS)</a> and
56
is based on software developed by the
57
<a href="http://knb.ecoinformatics.org">Knowledge Network for 
58
Biocomplexity (KNB)</a>, and houses metadata that are compliant with 
59
<a href="http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/software/eml/">Ecological Metadata 
60
Language (EML)</a>.

<p>Data documentation can be contributed to the repository in several ways,
60
each with its own strengths.  The 
61
<a href="@cgi-prefix@/register-dataset.cgi?cfg=nceas">Register New Dataset</a>
62
web form is a simple way to get started with providing metadata about the
63
existence of a dataset.  But it can not be used for fully documenting the
64
data, nor can you upload the data objects themselves through this form.
65
For a more complete description of data, we recommend the
66
<a href="http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/morphoportal.jsp" target="_top">Morpho</a> 
67
software application which is fully compatible with this repository.
