  1. NON-ELECTRONIC SOURCES OF BIOGEOGRAPHICAL DATA Daphne G. Fautin Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and KU Natural History Museum and Biodiversity Research Center

  2. Electronic data are essential in addressing important oceanographic questionsamong them those involving ecologyincluding biodiversity and biogeography

  3. Oceanographic data acquired electronically Lack taxonomic resolution Differ fundamentally from biological data Lack historical dimension To put into electronic form taxonomically and geographically resolved data Requires human intervention In the field In museums In publication/capture from publication Is no more costly than remote sensing Is essential to many scientific and societal issues

  4. May explain organism distribution but does not show organisms

  5. “Two beautiful SeaWiFS satellite images of blooms off Newfoundland in the western Atlantic, the left-hand on 21st July 1999, the right-hand one on 16th July 2000.” http://www.soes.soton.ac.uk/staff/tt/eh/satbloompics.html

  6. “Two more stunning SeaWiFS satellite images of a probable (no ships have ever taken water samples to confirm them there) coccolithophore bloom cradling the Falkland Islands (Patagonian Shelf), the left-hand one on 29th November 1999, the right-hand one two weeks later on 13th December. Provided by the SeaWiFS Project, NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center and ORBIMAGE.” http://www.soes.soton.ac.uk/staff/tt/eh/satbloompics.html

  8. Current Potential Coral Reef Bleaching Hot Spots http://www.osdpd.noaa.gov/PSB/EPS/SST/climo&hot.html

  9. DID CORALS BLEACH ?? WHICH TAXA ?? TO WHAT EXTENT ?? TO WHAT DEPTH ??

  10. biologically meaningful questions involving biogeography and biodiversity environmental data AND data on distribution of (identified) organisms

  11. Oceanographic data acquired electronically Lack taxonomic resolution Differ fundamentally from biological data Lack historical dimension To put into electronic form taxonomically and geographically resolved data Requires human intervention In the field In museums In publication/capture from publication Is no more costly than remote sensing Is essential to many scientific and societal issues

  12. Discontinuous/discrete Heterogeneous

  14. SOURCES OF DATAon identified, georeferenced organisms – back in timeMUSEUM SPECIMENS PUBLISHED LITERATURE

  15. An On-line Atlas of Marine Diversity National Science Foundation grant OCE 00-03970 (NOPP)

  16. Swedish Museum of Natural History California Academy of Sciences

  17. Substantial changes in data hardly affected trends

  18. Oceanographic data acquired electronically Lack taxonomic resolution Differ fundamentally from biological data Lack historical dimension To put into electronic form taxonomically and geographically resolved data Requires human intervention In the field In museums In publication/capture from publication Is no more costly than remote sensing Is essential to many scientific and societal issues

  19. “Two beautiful SeaWiFS satellite images of blooms off Newfoundland in the western Atlantic, the left-hand on 21st July 1999, the right-hand one on 16th July 2000. Humanity has invested billions of dollars putting satellites into space; these images are part of the reward. Provided by the SeaWiFS Project, NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center and ORBIMAGE.” http://www.soes.soton.ac.uk/staff/tt/eh/satbloompics.html

  20. Sensing and receiving equipment Development Installation Maintenance Data Processing Serving Archiving Expenses the community has agreed to share

  22. What/where ECONOMIC fisheries areas (open and closed) dive sites CONSERVATION invasive species protected areas ACADEMIC centers of diversity -- in space and time habitat preferences
