Welcome to the ESA Data Registry. This is a publically accessible registry
48
describing scientific data sets on ecology and the environment.

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>
52
This project is a cooperative effort of the 
53
<a href="http://www.esa.org">Ecological Society of America</a>, 
54
the <A href="http://www.esa.org/longterm/">Long-Term Studies Section (LTSS)</a> 
55
of the ESA, and the <a href="http://www.nceas.ucsb.edu">National Center for 
56
Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS)</a>.  The Data Registry is based 
57
on software developed by the 
58
<a href="http://knb.ecoinformatics.org">Knowledge Network for Biocomplexity 
59
(KNB)</a>, and houses metadata that are compliant with 
60
<a href="http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/software/eml/">Ecological Metadata 
61
Language (EML)</a>.

Credit for the datasets in this registry goes to the investigators who
66
collected the data -- see each individual registry entry for citation and
67
attribution information as well as usage rights.

      The registry search system is used to locate data sets of interest
76
      by searching through existing registered data sets.  
77
      Presently the search covers all fields, including
78
      author, title, abstract, keywords, and other documentation
79
      for each dataset.  (More sophisticated search capabilities, 
80
      including boolean field searches, will be available in future.)

87
      The registration page is used to submit information about a <b>new</b>
88
      data set associated with ESA research.  The documentation about the
89
      data set will be submitted to the Registry.  You can return to the entry
90
      at a later point in time to add to or correct the description.  You can
91
      also use other tools such as 
92
      <a href="http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/morphoportal.jsp">Morpho</a> 
93
      to further document the set of data and directly attach the data to 
94
      the registry entry.

107
      so that they can maintain their entries in the future.
