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 Frog Diversity The Blackburn Lab at the University of Florida's Florida Museum of Natural History is assembling a collection of CT scan data representing all extant families of frogs. This comparative dataset provides a library of anuran skeletons diversity that can be used in studies of diversity, evolution, comparative morphology, and paleontology. 1842 884

Display all details of Therapsid reflected lamina variation Early therapsids had a plate of bone attached to their jaw called the reflected lamina of the angular. This bone eventually became the ectotympanic bone in mammals, and it now holds the eardrum. The original function of the reflected lamina is unknown, and its shape varies widely across the Therapsida. I am collecting surface scans of the reflected laminae of different therapsids to assess how this structure varies and try to find clues for what its function was. 93 88

Display all details of Shark Spiral Intestines Looking to nature for inspiration has lead to many diverse technological advances. The spiral valve intestine of sharks has provided the opportunity to observe the efficiency of different valve systems. It is supposed that the spiral intestine present in sharks, skates, and rays slows the transit rate of digesta through the gut and provides increased surface area for the absorption of nutrients. In this investigation, we use a novel technique - creating 3D reconstructions from CT scans of spiral intestines - to describe the morphology of the spiral intestine of at least one species from twenty two different shark families. We discuss the morphological data in an evolutionary, dietary, and morphological context. We quantified the flow rate of material of various viscosities through the spiral intestine, demonstrating that it does slow the rate of digesta transit. Furthermore, as apex predators, many sharks play a role in the biodiversity of lower trophic levels that humans depend for dietary and economic resources. However, very little is known about the nutritional physiology of sharks and how it contributes to their overall physiology and ecology. These data are available to generate additional 3D morphometrics, create computational models of the intestine, as well as to further explore the function of the gastrointestinal tract of sharks in structural and physiological contexts.
