1025 Projects
Media are grouped by projects created by users. Projects tend to contain media tied together by a theme. A project might represent the dataset for a single peer-reviewed paper, the results of a collections digitization project, or data for a digital lesson plan.
Projects can be used to share media ownership and access between project members, and projects can also be used to publish assortments of media and specimens for access and discovery by the public. If you want to share media ownership and access with multiple users across multiple projects, consider creating a user team. Projects can be managed by teams, and users with access to that team also gain access to any projects managed by that team.

Display all details of oMeso PEN | This project is a collection of squamate and amphibian specimens scanned at the University of Colorado Materials Instrumentation and Multimodal Imaging Core (MIMIC) Facility in collaboration with the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History (UCM) and funded by the US National Science Foundation (NSF). The oMeso project is an NSF Partner to an Existing Network (PEN) award to the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History to join the openVertebrate (oVert) Thematic Content Network. oMeso employs 2D and 3D specimen imaging technologies to facilitate exploration of structural and functional diversity in Mesoamerican reptiles and amphibians. The unique ecology and geology of Mesoamerica has fostered the rapid evolution of multiple species adapted for a variety of habitats and life modes. Computed tomography (CT) scans of internal anatomy paired with high resolution photos of external traits provide complimentary image datasets to create an accessible resource for one of the world’s most hyperdiverse regions.See linked occurance records to view 2D images hosted on the iDigBio portal. | 648 | 575 | ||

Display all details of The mode of life and feeding strategies of psammosteids (Vertebrata: Pteraspidomorphi) with insights from body-shape reconstructions of Middle Devonian Pycnosteus and Tartuosteus (Baltic Region) | To clarify the functional morphology and the feeding strategy of psammosteid heterostracans (Vertebrata: Pteraspidomorphi) were used their dermal plates from the Middle Devonian sandstones of the Baltic region, as they are three-dimension preserved and retain traces of lifetime abrasion on the bottom substrate. The method of the 3D reconstructions makes it possible to better understand the relative position and proportions of the plates, and, consequently, to refine the life form of animals significantly. | Dmitry Grigoriev | 25 | 25 |
