Context

The United States Census Bureau’s international dataset provides estimates of country populations since 1950 and projections through 2050. Specifically, the dataset includes midyear population figures broken down by age and gender assignment at birth. Additionally, time-series data is provided for attributes including fertility rates, birth rates, death rates, and migration rates.

Querying BigQuery tables

You can use the BigQuery Python client library to query tables in this dataset in Kernels. Note that methods available in Kernels are limited to querying data. Tables are at bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.

Sample Query 1

What countries have the longest life expectancy? In this query, 2016 census information is retrieved by joining the mortality_life_expectancy and country_names_area tables for countries larger than 25,000 km2. Without the size constraint, Monaco is the top result with an average life expectancy of over 89 years!

standardSQL

SELECT age.country_name, age.life_expectancy, size.country_area FROM ( SELECT country_name, life_expectancy FROM bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.mortality_life_expectancy WHERE year = 2016) age INNER JOIN ( SELECT country_name, country_area FROM bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.country_names_area where country_area > 25000) size ON age.country_name = size.country_name ORDER BY 2 DESC /* Limit removed for Data Studio Visualization */ LIMIT 10

Sample Query 2

Which countries have the largest proportion of their population under 25? Over 40% of the world’s population is under 25 and greater than 50% of the world’s population is under 30! This query retrieves the countries with the largest proportion of young people by joining the age-specific population table with the midyear (total) population table.

standardSQL

SELECT age.country_name, SUM(age.population) AS under_25, pop.midyear_population AS total, ROUND((SUM(age.population) / pop.midyear_population) * 100,2) AS pct_under_25 FROM ( SELECT country_name, population, country_code FROM bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.midyear_population_agespecific WHERE year =2017 AND age < 25) age INNER JOIN ( SELECT midyear_population, country_code FROM bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.midyear_population WHERE year = 2017) pop ON age.country_code = pop.country_code GROUP BY 1, 3 ORDER BY 4 DESC /* Remove limit for visualization*/ LIMIT 10

Sample Query 3

The International Census dataset contains growth information in the form of birth rates, death rates, and migration rates. Net migration is the net number of migrants per 1,000 population, an important component of total population and one that often drives the work of the United Nations Refugee Agency. This query joins the growth rate table with the area table to retrieve 2017 data for countries greater than 500 km2.

SELECT growth.country_name, growth.net_migration, CAST(area.country_area AS INT64) AS country_area FROM ( SELECT country_name, net_migration, country_code FROM bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.birth_death_growth_rates WHERE year = 2017) growth INNER JOIN ( SELECT country_area, country_code FROM bigquery-public-data.census_bureau_international.country_names_area

The World's Top Military Strength Dataset is a comprehensive compilation of data gathered from various reliable sources, providing a detailed analysis and comparison of the military capabilities of countries worldwide. This dataset serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, defense analysts, and military enthusiasts, enabling them to assess and understand the relative strength and capacities of different nations' armed forces.

The dataset encompasses a wide range of parameters that are crucial in evaluating military power. It includes both quantitative and qualitative metrics, capturing factors such as defense budget, personnel strength, equipment inventory, technological advancements, research and development investments, logistical capabilities, and more. By incorporating multiple dimensions, the dataset offers a comprehensive view of a country's military prowess.

Data within the dataset has been meticulously scraped and curated from reputable websites, government publications, defense journals, and international reports. Rigorous efforts have been made to ensure data accuracy and consistency, minimizing errors and biases to provide users with reliable information.

For over five decades since attachment theory was first introduced by John Bowlby (1969), it has garnered substantial academic interest, including its application to student-teacher relationships. Various efforts have been made to assess student-teacher relationships, one of which is the development of the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS). This scale was originally developed by Pianta & Nimetz, (2001) to assess teachers' closeness with students from preschool through third grade. In this scale, the student-teacher relationship is linked to three dimensions of attachment: closeness, conflict, and dependency. Over time, several academics have examined and revalidated Pianta & Nimetz's STRS across different relationships and cultural settings. For example, Koomen et al., (2012) assessed teachers' perspectives on their relationships with students aged 3-12, specifically measuring the dimensions of closeness, conflict, and dependency among teachers and students in the Netherlands by adding additional items to the dependency indicator. However, previous studies have predominantly developed instruments limited to measurements based on teachers’ perspectives within elementary education settings. This highlights a substantial need for further research to re-examine the factor structure and validity of this measurement tool from another perspective—that of middle school students. As the study of student-teacher relationships progresses, there remains a lack of suitable instruments for use in Indonesia, and few studies specifically address student-teacher relationships, such as Mint Husen Raya et al., (2023). Additionally, it is essential to test the validity of STRS in higher age groups, particularly within the context of Indonesian middle school culture, considering that Indonesia is an archipelagic country with the world’s fourth-largest population (>275 million) and diverse ethnicities and cultures across its regions. Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to adopt and validate the STRS by Koomen et al., (2012) through Rasch Model analysis on a sample of Indonesian middle school students. The study will test the scale based on measurements of age, gender, and ethnicity, and adapt it from a teacher's perspective to a student's perspective. Key analyses will include checking for misfit items, internal consistency reliability, and separation indices, as well as unidimensionality and local dependency, item and person measures, item bias through DIF analysis, and rating scale diagnostics. Finally, we will present a comprehensive correlation between our scale (STRS-Student) and similar scales developed by other academics. An additional objective is to popularize and disseminate this scale throughout Indonesia.

This data collection consists of transcripts from 12 focus group discussions on themes related to social equality in Russia. The focus group discussions were conducted by the Institute of Applied Politics in Moscow, directed by Dr Kryshtanovskaya; using a discussion guide written by the Investigators. They were held in 12 cities chosen to represent different regions of the country, with an emphasis on provincial cities: Ufa, Kaliningrad, Ekaterinburg, Tiumen, Saratov, Ulyanovsk, Volgograd, Ivanovo, Irkutsk, Obolensk, Vladivostok and Protvino. The respondents included a mix of ages, genders, blue and white collar workers. The focus groups in Protvino and Ulyanovsk were held only for respondents age 18-29. The focus group discussions dealt with household and national economic change, perceptions of social fairness, and welfare values. Specifically, respondents were asked about the state of the national and local economies, their household economy, how they define rich and poor people and how they position themselves in relation to these categories. They were asked about whether they perceived differences in wealth between individuals, regions and between urban and rural areas as fair, and whether such differences are increasing or decreasing. Finally they were asked about whether the rich should take more responsibility for the welfare of the poor, about their own personal responsibility and that of the state and businesses, as well as about progressive income taxes and the degree to which the state should control the economy. The discussion guide is provided in Russian and English. Basic information about the respondents, including gender, age, and occupation are provided at the top of each focus group transcript. Each participant is identified by their given name only. The transcripts are provided in Russian. The Russian text was transcribed by the Institute of Applied Politics from audio files. A parallel set of focus groups was conducted in China and are available as the collection Social equality forum China: Focus group transcripts (see Related Resources). Taken together, Russia and China account for 41 per cent of the total territory of the BRICs and 63 per cent of their GDP/PPP. On Goldman Sachs projections China will be the world’s largest economy by 2050, and Russia its sixth largest. The project will seek to examine the following propositions: (1) that these two BRIC countries are becoming increasingly unequal; (2) that within them, political power and economic advantage are increasingly closely associated; (3) that their political systems have increasingly been employed to ensure that no effective challenge can be mounted to that combination of government position and economic advantage; (4) that set against a broader comparative perspective, an increasingly unequal society in which government is effectively immune from conventional challenge is likely to become increasingly regressive, or unstable, or both. Evidence will be drawn from official statistics, interviews with policy specialists and government officials, two dozen focus groups, and an analysis of the composition of the management boards of the largest companies in both countries. A final part of the analysis will employ crossnational evidence to test a series of hypotheses relating to the association between inequality and political instability on a more broadly comparative basis. Focus group discussions held in 12 Russian cities with 6 participants each drawn from a range of ages, both genders and different professions. Two focus groups were held for respondents age 18-29 only.

Summary

This dataset accompanies the publication "Flock size and structure influence reproductive success in four species of flamingo in 540 captive populations worldwide" published in Zoo Biology. It contains anonymised data from 540 captive flamingo populations, and includes the four species: Phoeniconaias minor, Phoenicopterus chilensis, Phoenicopterus roseus and Phoenicopterus ruber. Data were sourced from the Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS), operated by Species360 (https://www.species360.org/). ZIMS is the largest real-time database of comprehensive and standardized information spanning more than 1,200 zoological collections globally, and provides the number of institutions currently managing each flamingo species and both their current and historic population sizes. These data were used to investigate the relationship between reproductive success and both flock size, and structure, on a global scale.

This dataset also contains climatic data provided by WorldClim, which were used to assess the influence of climatic variables on captive flamingo reproductive success globally. The WorldClim database averages 19 different climatic variables derived from monthly temperature and rainfall values at a 1 km spatial resolution for the period 1970-2000. Using geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) we calculated several climatic metrics for each institution.

Description of the Dataset

One file is provided for each species (P. minor, P. chilensis, P. roseus and P. ruber) as a csv file. Each file contains the following 15 columns:

• Institution Code: An anonymous code used to identify individual zoological institutions.
• Country: The country where the institution is located.
• Year: Current year (t).
• Flock Size: Flock size in year t.
• Males: The number of males in the flock in year t.
• Females: The number of females in the flock in year t.
• Unsexed: The number of unsexed individuals in the flock in year t.
• Proportion of Females: The proportion of the flock made up of female individuals in year t.
• Proportion of Unsexed: The proportion of the flock made up of unsexed individuals in year t.
• Hatches: Number of birds hatched in year t.
• Proportion of Additions: The proportion of the flock in year t made up of additions from year t-1 (not including new birds hatched into the flock).
• MAP: Mean annual precipitation (mm).
• MAT: Mean annual temperature (°C).
• MAP Var: Mean annual variation in precipitation (MAP coefficient of variation).
• MAT Var: Mean annual variation in temperature (MAT standard deviation).

Note: Mean Annual Temperature (MAT) is provided by WorldClim as °C multiplied by 10, and similarly mean annual variation in temperature as MAT standard deviation multiplied by 100. In the corresponding publication, both were divided (by 10 and 100 respectively) prior to modelling to avoid confusion in the units used.

We present the GLOBAL ROADKILL DATA, the largest worldwide compilation of roadkill data on terrestrial vertebrates. We outline the workflow (Fig. 1) to illustrate the sequential steps of the study, in which we merged local-scale survey datasets and opportunistic records into a unified roadkill large dataset comprising 208,570 roadkill records. These records include 2283 species and subspecies from 54 countries across six continents, ranging from 1971 to 2024.Large roadkill datasets offer the advantage ofpreventing the collection of redundant data and are valuable resources for both local and macro-scale analyses regarding roadkill rates, road and landscape features associated with roadkill risk, species more vulnerable to road traffic, and populations at risk due to additional mortality. The standardization of data - such as scientific names, projection coordinates, and units - in a user-friendly format, makes themreadily accessible to a broader scientific and non-scientific community, including NGOs, consultants, public administration officials, and road managers. The open-access approach promotes collaboration among researchers and road practitioners, facilitating the replication of studies, validation of findings, and expansion of previous work. Moreover, researchers can utilize suchdatasets to develop new hypotheses, conduct meta-analyses, address pressing challenges more efficiently and strengthen the robustness of road ecology research. Ensuring widespreadaccess to roadkill data fosters a more diverse and inclusive research community. This not only grants researchers in emerging economies with more data for analysis, but also cultivates a diverse array of perspectives and insightspromoting the advance of infrastructure ecology.MethodsInformation sources: A core team from different continents performed a systematic literature search in Web of Science and Google Scholar for published peer-reviewed papers and dissertations. It was searched for the following terms: “roadkill* OR “road-kill” OR “road mortality” AND (country) in English, Portuguese, Spanish, French and/or Mandarin. This initiative was also disseminated to the mailing lists associated with transport infrastructure: The CCSG Transport Working Group (WTG), Infrastructure & Ecology Network Europe (IENE) and Latin American & Caribbean Transport Working Group (LACTWG) (Fig. 1). The core team identified 750 scientific papers and dissertations with information on roadkill and contacted the first authors of the publications to request georeferenced locations of roadkill andofferco-authorship to this data paper. Of the 824 authors contacted, 145agreed to sharegeoreferenced roadkill locations, often involving additional colleagues who contributed to data collection. Since our main goal was to provide open access to data that had never been shared in this format before, data from citizen science projects (e.g., globalroakill.net) that are already available were not included.Data compilation: A total of 423 co-authors compiled the following information: continent, country, latitude and longitude in WGS 84 decimal degrees of the roadkill, coordinates uncertainty, class, order, family, scientific name of the roadkill, vernacular name, IUCN status, number of roadkill, year, month, and day of the record, identification of the road, type of road, survey type, references, and observers that recorded the roadkill (Supplementary Information Table S1 - description of the fields and Table S2 - reference list). When roadkill data were derived from systematic surveys, the dataset included additional information on road length that was surveyed, latitude and longitude of the road (initial and final part of the road segment), survey period, start year of the survey, final year of the survey, 1st month of the year surveyed, last month of the year surveyed, and frequency of the survey. We consolidated 142 valid datasets into a single dataset. We complemented this data with OccurenceID (a UUID generated using Java code), basisOfRecord, countryCode, locality using OpenStreetMap’s API (https://www.openstreetmap.org), geodeticDatum, verbatimScientificName, Kingdom, phylum, genus, specificEpithet, infraspecificEpithet, acceptedNameUsage, scientific name authorship, matchType, taxonRank using Darwin Core Reference Guide (https://dwc.tdwg.org/terms/#dwc:coordinateUncertaintyInMeters) and link of the associatedReference (URL).Data standardization - We conducted a clustering analysis on all text fields to identify similar entries with minor variations, such as typos, and corrected them using OpenRefine (http://openrefine.org). Wealsostandardized all date values using OpenRefine. Coordinate uncertainties listed as 0 m were adjusted to either 30m or 100m, depending on whether they were recorded after or before 2000, respectively, following the recommendation in the Darwin Core Reference Guide (https://dwc.tdwg.org/terms/#dwc:coordinateUncertaintyInMeters).Taxonomy - We cross-referenced all species names with the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) Backbone Taxonomy using Java and GBIF’s API (https://doi.org/10.15468/39omei). This process aimed to rectify classification errors, include additional fields such as Kingdom, Phylum, and scientific authorship, and gather comprehensive taxonomic information to address any gap withinthe datasets. For species not automatically matched (matchType - Table S1), we manually searched for correct synonyms when available.Species conservation status - Using the species names, we retrieved their conservation status and also vernacular names by cross-referencing with the database downloaded from the IUCNRed List of Threatened Species (https://www.iucnredlist.org). Species without a match were categorized as "Not Evaluated".Data RecordsGLOBAL ROADKILL DATA is available at Figshare27 https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.25714233. The dataset incorporates opportunistic (collected incidentally without data collection efforts) and systematic data (collected through planned, structured, and controlled methods designed to ensure consistency and reliability). In total, it comprises 208,570 roadkill records across 177,428 different locations(Fig. 2). Data were collected from the road network of 54 countries from 6 continents: Europe (n = 19), Asia (n = 16), South America (n=7), North America (n = 4), Africa (n = 6) and Oceania (n = 2).(Figure 2 goes here)All data are georeferenced in WGS84 decimals with maximum uncertainty of 5000 m. Approximately 92% of records have a location uncertainty of 30 m or less, with only 1138 records having location uncertainties ranging from 1000 to 5000 m. Mammals have the highest number of roadkill records (61%), followed by amphibians (21%), reptiles (10%) and birds (8%). The species with the highest number of records were roe deer (Capreolus capreolus, n = 44,268), pool frog (Pelophylax lessonae, n = 11,999) and European fallow deer (Dama dama, n = 7,426).We collected information on 126 threatened species with a total of 4570 records. Among the threatened species, the giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla, VULNERABLE) has the highest number of records n = 1199), followed by the common fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra, VULNERABLE, n=1043), and European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus, ENDANGERED, n = 440). Records ranged from 1971 and 2024, comprising 72% of the roadkill recorded since 2013. Over 46% of the records were obtained from systematic surveys, with road length and survey period averaging, respectively, 66 km (min-max: 0.09-855 km) and 780 days (1-25,720 days).Technical ValidationWe employed the OpenStreetMap API through Java todetect location inaccuracies, andvalidate whether the geographic coordinates aligned with the specified country. We calculated the distance of each occurrence to the nearest road using the GRIP global roads database28, ensuring that all records were within the defined coordinate uncertainty. We verified if the survey duration matched the provided initial and final survey dates. We calculated the distance between the provided initial and final road coordinates and cross-checked it with the given road length. We identified and merged duplicate entries within the same dataset (same location, species, and date), aggregating the number of roadkills for each occurrence.Usage NotesThe GLOBAL ROADKILL DATA is a compilation of roadkill records and was designed to serve as a valuable resource for a wide range of analyses. Nevertheless, to prevent the generation of meaningless results, users should be aware of the followinglimitations:- Geographic representation – There is an evident bias in the distribution of records. Data originatedpredominantly from Europe (60% of records), South America (22%), and North America (12%). Conversely, there is a notable lack of records from Asia (5%), Oceania (1%) and Africa (0.3%). This dataset represents 36% of the initial contacts that provided geo-referenced records, which may not necessarily correspond to locations where high-impact roads are present.- Location accuracy - Insufficient location accuracy was observed for 1% of the data (ranging from 1000 to 5000 m), that was associated with various factors, such as survey methods, recording practices, or timing of the survey.- Sampling effort - This dataset comprised both opportunistic data and records from systematic surveys, with a high variability in survey duration and frequency. As a result, the use of both opportunistic and systematic surveys may affect the relative abundance of roadkill making it hard to make sound comparisons among species or areas.- Detectability and carcass removal bias - Although several studies had a high frequency of road surveys,the duration of carcass persistence on roads may vary with species size and environmental conditions, affecting detectability. Accordingly, several approaches account for survey frequency and target speciesto estimate more

BackgroundIn India, the prevalence of overweight and obesity has increased rapidly in recent decades. Given the association between overweight and obesity with many non-communicable diseases, forecasts of the future prevalence of overweight and obesity can help inform policy in a country where around one sixth of the world’s population resides.MethodsWe used a system of multi-state life tables to forecast overweight and obesity prevalence among Indians aged 20–69 years by age, sex and urban/rural residence to 2040. We estimated the incidence and initial prevalence of overweight using nationally representative data from the National Family Health Surveys 3 and 4, and the Study on global AGEing and adult health, waves 0 and 1. We forecasted future mortality, using the Lee-Carter model fitted life tables reported by the Sample Registration System, and adjusted the mortality rates for Body Mass Index using relative risks from the literature.ResultsThe prevalence of overweight will more than double among Indian adults aged 20–69 years between 2010 and 2040, while the prevalence of obesity will triple. Specifically, the prevalence of overweight and obesity will reach 30.5% (27.4%-34.4%) and 9.5% (5.4%-13.3%) among men, and 27.4% (24.5%-30.6%) and 13.9% (10.1%-16.9%) among women, respectively, by 2040. The largest increases in the prevalence of overweight and obesity between 2010 and 2040 is expected to be in older ages, and we found a larger relative increase in overweight and obesity in rural areas compared to urban areas. The largest relative increase in overweight and obesity prevalence was forecast to occur at older age groups.ConclusionThe overall prevalence of overweight and obesity is expected to increase considerably in India by 2040, with substantial increases particularly among rural residents and older Indians. Detailed predictions of excess weight are crucial in estimating future non-communicable disease burdens and their economic impact.

Which county has the most Facebook users?

              There are more than 378 million Facebook users in India alone, making it the leading country in terms of Facebook audience size. To put this into context, if India’s Facebook audience were a country then it would be ranked third in terms of largest population worldwide. Apart from India, there are several other markets with more than 100 million Facebook users each: The United States, Indonesia, and Brazil with 193.8 million, 119.05 million, and 112.55 million Facebook users respectively.

              Facebook – the most used social media

              Meta, the company that was previously called Facebook, owns four of the most popular social media platforms worldwide, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Facebook, and Instagram. As of the third quarter of 2021, there were around 3,5 billion cumulative monthly users of the company’s products worldwide. With around 2.9 billion monthly active users, Facebook is the most popular social media worldwide. With an audience of this scale, it is no surprise that the vast majority of Facebook’s revenue is generated through advertising.

              Facebook usage by device
              As of July 2021, it was found that 98.5 percent of active users accessed their Facebook account from mobile devices. In fact, almost 81.8 percent of Facebook audiences worldwide access the platform only via mobile phone. Facebook is not only available through mobile browser as the company has published several mobile apps for users to access their products and services. As of the third quarter 2021, the four core Meta products were leading the ranking of most downloaded mobile apps worldwide, with WhatsApp amassing approximately six billion downloads.
