This wiki supports the ESA 2015 Ignite Session: '''Enhancing Ecological Research with iDigBio Specimen Data''' at the Ecological Society of America 2015 Conference in Baltimore, Maryland, on August 12th, 2015.

Ten talks in this Ignite Session highlight iDigBio, and the creation of and access to quality specimen data, with current examples of ecological research uses of natural history museum specimen data. Amber Budden from DataONE joins us to talk about data issues and tips for creating robust, re-usable data.

'''Abstract.'''<br/>
What’s in a 42,534,444+ record database at iDigBio for ecologists to mine (with over 11,000,000 images)? Natural history museum specimen data provides opportunities for niche modeling for climate change, tissue culture for improving genetic robustness, geographical patterns of diversification in a species complex, investigating phenological change, enhanced historical biodiversity baseline distributions knowledge, and examining speciation hypotheses. Discover data for your research, classroom, education, outreach, and citizen science initiatives. Who is using natural history collections data? How are the data being used? What are the challenges? You, as an ecologist, can be part of this nationwide initiative. Join us to find out how.
