Welcome to the ESA Data Registry. This is a publically accessible registry
123
describing <b>scientific data sets on ecology and the environment</b>.  In this
124
context, we refer to a data set as the collection of data tables and objects
125
that are associated with a study, experiment, or monitoring program.  Exactly
126
what constitutes a data set is determined by each submitter.
127
Credit for the data sets in this registry goes to the investigators who
128
collected the data -- see each individual registry entry for citation and
129
attribution information as well as usage rights.

describing <b>scientific on ecology and the environment</b>.  The
124
data sets registered here are associated with articles published in the
125
journals of the Ecological Society of America.  They are registered here
126
in order to facilitate communication and data sharing by scientists.  See
127
individual registry entries for citation information as well as usage rights.
