Field measurements of major ions, phosphorus, nitrogen fractions, alkalinity and pH (2010-2015) [Wensum DTC]
Field measurements of major ions, phosphorus, nitrogen fractions, alkalinity and pH from the Wensum Demonstration Test Catchment, in Norfolk, measured between 2010 and 2015. Water samples are collected at 7 sites (aka monitoring kiosk A, B, C, D, E, F, M) in this catchment...
Conwy catchment - Llyn Conwy water temperature profile data (2006-2008)
In-lake temperature data for a peatland headwater lake of the Conwy catchment, North Wales are presented from November 2006 until December 2008. The Lake for which the data represents is Llyn Conwy situated on the Migneint blanket bog within Snowdonia National Park....
Field measurements of alkalinity, chloride-ion, conductivity, pH and nutrients in rainwater (2004-2006) [LOCAR]
Rainwater alkalinity, chloride-ion, conductivity, pH and nutrients data from the Frome Piddle; Pang Lambourn and Tern catchments, recorded between 2004 and 2006. Rainwater samples were collected fortnightly at seven sites in these catchments and analysed for Alkalinity...
SAGIS (Source Apportionment GIS)
SAGIS was developed for UKWIR, with support from the Environment Agency, SEPA and Natural England, to analyse sources of chemicals at the river basin scale and identify measures to improve river, lake and estuary water quality. National data on the source of chemicals...
Diffuse agricultural pollution to rivers in Scotland
Modelled predictions of annual pollutant loads in rivers from agricultural source areas for Scotland, reported at Water Framework Directive (WFD) catchment scale. The modelled pollutants include total phosphorous, nitrate (NO3-N), faecal indicator organisms (FIOs),...
High resolution water quality, hydrological and ecological monitoring in the river Eden catchment (2011 - 2015) [DTC project]
The River Eden Demonstration Test Catchment (EdenDTC) monitored water quality, hydrology and ecology across 3 sub-catchments to assess the effectiveness of diffuse pollution mitigation measures. The focus areas are in the Thackthwaite, Newby and Pow catchments. Each...
Continuous measurements of rainfall (2002-2007) [LOCAR]
Continuous measurements of rainfall from the Frome Piddle; Pang Lambourn and Tern catchments, recorded between 2002 and 2007. Continuous recording rain gauges were installed at six sites in these catchments to record 15 minute rainfall data for differing periods at...
Antiviral, antibiotics and decongestants in wastewater treatment plants and receiving rivers in the Thames catchment
This dataset contains the concentration of eleven antibiotics (trimethoprim, oxytetracycline, ciprofloxacin, azithromycin, cefotaxime, doxycycline, sulfamethoxazole, erythromycin, clarithromycin, ofloxacin, norfloxacin), three decongestants (naphazoline, oxymetazoline,...

Conwy Catchment - Nant Y Brwyn Discharge dataset (2008-2011)
Discharge data and in-stream temperature for a peatland headwater stream of the Conwy catchment, North Wales are presented from March 2008 until July 2011. The stream for which the data represents is the Nant y Brwyn situated on the Migneint blanket bog within Snowdonia...
Case Study 1: Multiple pollutant and ecosystem services responses to land management policies and agri-environment interventions at the farm to catchment scale.
This case study examines potential trade-offs and co-benefits for a suite of ecosystem services at the farm to catchment scale that may be potential ‘by-products’ of an agri-environment scheme designed to reduce total multi-pollutant loads entering watercourses.
QUESTOR (Quality Evaluation and Simulation Tool for River Systems)
QUESTOR represents a river as a series of river reaches within which physical, chemical and biological processes operate.. The initial selection of reaches is based on the location of confluences, diffuse (catchment) sources, discharge points, abstraction points, monitoring...
Continuous measurement of rainfall (2010-2015) [Wensum DTC]
Continuous measurements of rainfall (in mm) from the Wensum Demonstration Test Catchment, in Norfolk, recorded between 2010 and 2015. Continuous recording rain gauges were installed at 6 sites in the catchment to record sub-hourly rainfall data, which has been aggregated...
Trace element data from rivers [LOIS]
Discrete data for trace elements for both the dissolved and acid available fractions for thirteen core sites in the Humber catchment over the period 1993 to 1997 and for three sites from the Tweed catchment over the period 1994 to 1997. Part of the Land Ocean Interaction...
High resolution water quality, hydrology and ecological monitoring data from the Hampshire Avon and Tamar (2011 - 2014) [DTC project]
High resolution datasets of ecological, hydrological and water quality monitoring at approx. 11 sites across the Hampshire Avon and Tamar Defra Test Catchment (DTC) sites between 2011 and 2014, for monitoring and assessing the effects of on-farm interventions on water...
National River Flow Archive Catchment Boundaries
Catchment boundaries for all the National River Flow Archive (NRFA) gauging stations. The National River Flow Archive provides access to flow data for 1500 gauging stations across the UK, as well as information on the gauging stations and their catchments, including...
FARMSCOPER (Farm Scale Optimisation of Pollutant Emission Reductions)
Farmscoper is a decision support tool that allows an assessment of the cost and effectiveness of agricultural mitigation methods on multiple pollutants. It incorporates meta-models of a number of different pollutant models which have previously been used for government...
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), chlorobenzenes (CB) and organochlorine pesticides (OC) data from rivers [LOIS]
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), chlorobenzenes (CB) and organochlorine pesticides (OC) data from river water collected at various sites within the Humber catchment area as part of the Land Ocean Interaction Study project (LOIS). Data were collected at regular weekly...
SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool)
SWAT is the product of over 40 years of research and is subject to ongoing development. The model is designed to simulate the effects of changes in land management practices, land use and climate on surface water and groundwater quality and quantity, sediments, nutrients,...
