Data on bone assemblages was collected from all published zooarchaeological reports from the southern Levant which discuss either the presence or the number of identified specimens (NISP) of ungulates.
Fish assemblage data was collected during a period between 2003 and 2011 at 99 sampling sites.
The samples analyzed in this study were taken from our Malagasy assemblage, which was collected in field seasons 2007-2008.
Surface sediment assemblages and environmental variables were collected along the U.S. coastline at 191 sample sites, which were classified by lake and geomorphic type: high-energy (HE), embayment (EB), coastal wetland (CW), riverine wetland (RW), protected wetland (PW), and open water (OP).
After 720 hours of automatic trap sampling effort, 11,660 adult specimens (73 species) were collected from the mosquito assemblages.
The assemblage of hand axes, picks and other cutting tools was collected, mostly in the 1990s, by French archaeologists led by Hélène Roche of the National Center for Scientific Research in France.
In addition to the hominids, 209 nonhuman fossil specimens were collected that represent a macro fauna assemblage that existed in Africa between 2.36 and 1.50 million years ago.
Of the 76 species listed by GAP for which data were collected, 33 were found to be correctly listed within their respective assemblages, 13 were found to be listed for the wrong assemblage, and 30 were below percentages of co-dominants of any assemblage.
Within each stratum, benthic grab samples were collected from ten random sites for analysis of sediment composition and contaminants and macrobenthic assemblages.
It is noteworthy that here, one coral sample was collected from a uniform location on each coral colony to allow for comparison of Symbiodinium assemblages among coral colonies.
