* Repository for research data underlying scientific publications, incl. plenty of ecological data: www.datadryad.org
* Biotechnology
** NCBI, National Center for Biotechnology Information, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
** NCBI is mostly for biomedical and biotechnological data; however, some of the datasets in the SRA (Sequence Read Archive - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra) are ecological in nature, meaning that they contain DNA/RNA data gathered from habitats. However, it is some work to find out which datasets are helpful for us
* Animals
** Global database for tracking data of animals by MPI, www.movebank.org
* Plants
** Curated global database for plant traits by MPI, www.try-db.org
* Light pollution
** Global Light Pollution Data http://ngdc.noaa.gov/eog/viirs.html (is currently down because of the US government shutdown)
* Microbial
** Different Large-Scale Microbial Ecology Projects (with very spotty data, and usually no timeseries):
** Tara Oceans: Microbial Ecology data from Oceans https://oceans.taraexpeditions.org/en/m/about-tara/les-expeditions/tara-oceans/ and https://www.ebi.ac.uk/services/tara-oceans-data
** Earth Microbiome Project http://www.earthmicrobiome.org/data-and-code/
