Description

This dataset provides the sampling locations and identifications for a total of 60 larvae collected near deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields and used in a microbiome study by Carrier et al. (2020, submitted). The larvae were collected near hydrothermal vent fields on the East Pacific Rise (EPR 9°50'N vent field), on the Mariana Back-Arc Spreading Center (near Snail and Archaean vent fields), and in Pescadero Basin (Auka vent field) in the Gulf of California. This dataset is derived from a dataset in the Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) repository (Beaulieu et al., 2021, doi:10.26008/1912/bco-dmo.839476.1) with the addition of two Darwin Core terms recommended for the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF; countryCode and kingdom). See the dataset in BCO-DMO for acquisition description, data columns removed that were not in the Darwin Core standard (e.g., Lowest_level_taxon_name_or_morphotype, microbiome_16S_Dryad), and associatedMedia. Note that the use of the Darwin Core term habitat differs from the standard definition; we describe the habitat as "hydrothermal vent" ENVO term http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ENVO_00000215 for those taxa for which we are confident that the adults live at a hydrothermal vent, otherwise NotDetermined. Funding to collect specimens was from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) OCE-0424953 and OCE-1028862 and the Dalio Explore Fund, and funding to standardize these data to Darwin Core for sharing through the Ocean Biodiversity Information System was from NSF DEB-1558904 and OCE-1829773.

Data Records

The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 60 records.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
