Overview

Search HF Datasets

Datasets may be searched using the options below. All searches are case insensitive. General Search tests if the submitted string is contained in the specified fields. By ID Number looks for a matching number (HF and leading zeros may be omitted). The other searches require an exact match.

  • General Search - search by ID number, title, abstract, methods, keyword, location name, investigator, or contact (EML alternateIdentifier, title, abstract, methods, keyword, geographicDescription, creator, associatedParty, or contact)
  • by ID Number - search by ID number (EML alternateIdentifier)
  • by Investigator - search by investigator's last name (EML creator or associatedParty)
  • by Keyword - search by keyword (EML keyword)
  • by Taxon - search by single Latin name, genus and species, or common name (EML taxonomicRankValue or commonName)
  • by Year - search by start year and/or end year (EML beginDate and endDate)

Browse HF Datasets

Datasets may be browsed using the options below. Note that datasets may have more than one research topic, study type, and LTER core area.
