Geochemical Baseline Survery of the Environment for the UK [G-BASE]
Natural abundances of chemical elements in stream sediments, stream water and soil samples systematically collected since 1968. The average sample density for stream sediments and water is about one site per 1.5-2km square, and for soils one site per 2km square. The...
EA Manual River Flow Measurements
Manual River Flow Measurements, a.k.a. spot or instantaneous flows, is a dataset of flow measurements carried out by visits to river sites. This output contains the calculated flow for each gauging, rather than the detailed measurements and calculations used to produce...
Continuous measurements of conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature and water level in rivers (2002-2007) [LOCAR]
Continuous measurements of conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature and water level from the Frome Piddle; Pang Lambourn and Tern catchments, recorded between 2002 and 2007. YSI sondes were installed at 16 sites in these catchments to record continuous measurements...

EA Water Management Areas: administrative boundaries
Administrative boundaries of EA Water Management Areas at 1:10000 scale for England and Wales. These consist of 2 discrete data layers showing: (1) Water Management Areas and (2) Public Face Areas. Both layers are attributed with the name and address for each head office....
Scottish Integrated Administration and Control System (SIACS)
The EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) requires the Scottish Government to set up an Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) to support schemes covered by the Single Application Form and other farm subsidy applications. The Single Application Form is a...
EDINA Agricultural Census for England, Wales and Scotland [Agcensus]
EDINA agcensus data provides agricultural census data for England, Scotland and Wales at 2km, 5km or 10km grid square resolution. The Agricultural Census is conducted in June each year by the government departments dealing with Agriculture and Rural Affairs for Scotland,...
River Obstructions
Location of manmade barriers, mostly weirs, and natural features, such as waterfalls, on river courses in England and Wales. This dataset is known as "Potential Sites of Hydropower Opportunity" and has been created under the EA project "Opportunity and environmental...
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,...
Environment Agency Water Quality Archive data for England (2000 onwards)
The Water Quality Archive provides data on water quality measurements taken from sampling points around England and then analysed to measure aspects of the water quality and / or the environment at that point. This record is for the Water quality data archive homepage...
Micro-organic herbicides data from rivers [LOIS]
Micro-organic herbicide levels in river water for various sites within the Humber and Tweed catchments collected as part of the Land Ocean Interaction Study project (LOIS). The dataset contains data for Phenyl urea and Phenoxy acid herbicides, measured as 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic...
INCA-P (Integrated Catchments Model - Phosphorus dynamics)
INCA-P operates at a daily time step, tracking the stores and fluxes of water, sediment, dissolved and particulate P in both the land and in-stream phases of a river catchment. The model is spatially ‘semi-distributed’: the water course is split into reaches with associated...
Climate hydrology and ecology research support system potential evapotranspiration dataset for Great Britain (1961-2015) [CHESS-PE]
1km resolution gridded potential evapotranspiration over Great Britain for the years 1961-2015. This dataset contains time series of two potential evapotranspiration variables. The first is potential evapotranspiration (PET) (mm/day) calculated using the Penman-Monteith...

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),...
Annual pollution deposition grids for the UK for multiple pollutants (2004-2014)
Yearly pollutant data for individual for the UK since 2004. The data has a spatial resolution of 5x5km. The pollutants include: total deposition of oxidised sulphur (non-seasalt), wet deposition of sulphate (non-seasalt), dry deposition of sulphur dioxide, total deposition...
Pesticide Usage Survey (1986 -2015)
This survey by Fera is commissioned to conduct agricultural, horticultural and amenity pesticide usage surveys by the Chemicals Regulation Directorate (CRD) of the Health and Safety Executive. The reports have many important uses such as informing pesticide risk assessment...
OS MasterMap Water Network
Three-dimensional topologically connected watercourse network of Great Britain. The data represents the approximate central alignment of watercourses and includes inland rivers, tidal water, lakes and canals attributed with watercourse name, flow direction, gradient,...
Harmonised world soil database
30 arc-second grid database with over 16,000 different soil mapping units that combines existing regional and national updates of soil information worldwide (SOTER, ESD, Soil Map of China, WISE) with the information contained within the 1:5,000,000 scale FAO-UNESCO...
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,...

Case Study 4: Effectiveness of pollution control measures under scenarios of future climate and land cover change at the catchment scale.
Despite the uncertainty in future climate and land use, large-scale measures put in place today to improve water quality are likely to remain effective in the future in northeast Scotland. Dynamic models can provide useful indications of the likely lag time between...
