Contribute to CAML's Barcoding initiative

 You can contribute to CAML barcoding by submitting your sequences and / or accession numbers, along with associated data (such as lat / long and depth of collection and voucher number) to CAML. All submitted sequences will be properly acknowledged. Please contact acant at bas dot ac dot uk to submit your sequences. 

If you have none at present but will have sequences in future, please register by email with CAML (racant at bas dot ac dot uk) to let us know what you are sequencing.... ]]></description>

Synonymy was resolved by consulting the Register of Antarctic Marine Species (RAMS), that is accessible via internet and that compiles the most recent information about Antarctic asteroid taxonomy (Danis & Jangoux, 2007), delivering us in this way the valid species names.... ]]></description>

	   <description><![CDATA[ This project aims to assess the vulnerability of and risks to habitats in Australian fisheries in the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)/Australian Fishing Zone (AFZ) of the Southern Ocean to impacts by different demersal gears - trawl, longline and traps. The project which is a collaborative initiative between the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD), the Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA), industry and research partners, and substantially funded by the Fisheries Research and Development Corporation, was developed in order to resolve outstanding questions relating to the potential impacts and sustainability of demersal fishing practices in the AFZ at Heard Island and the McDonald Islands (HIMI). It will also help resolve similar outstanding questions for other fisheries in the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) in which Australian industry participates and provide technology for use in other fisheries to address similar questions.... ]]></description>

	   <description><![CDATA[ International Society of Environmental Bioindicators(ISEBI) publishes the Environmental Bioindicators journal, which explores the scientific bases and uses of bioindicators and biomarkers of environmental stressors as they relate directly to specific measurable effects in ecological (both floral and faunal) and human populations. Emphasis is placed on the application of these indicators as tools to help in understanding the probability that the presence of a stressor in the ambient environment may produce an adverse effect in exposed receptors or populations, the degree of harm that may be indicated, and the integration of these data to characterize environmental health. Submitting manuscripts and data to the journal is herewith encouraged!... ]]></description>

	   <description><![CDATA[ We at the Secretariat of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility are pleased to announce the release of GBIF Training Manual 1: Digitising Natural History Collections Data.

GBIF Training Manual 1: Digitising Natural History Collections Data brings together in one volume a number of GBIF publications that have been well received by the community. There are, in addition, new materials, such as a GBIF Glossary and Acronym Expansion, and a number of important GBIF documents such as the Data Use and Data Sharing agreements.

The result is a complete package of background information and guidance for the curators and collections managers of natural history collections and herbaria.

GBIF hopes that this Manual (the first in a planned series) will assist potential providers of collections-based biodiversity data to help GBIF reach its 1 Billion Records goal.... ]]></description>
