United Kingdom Butterfly Monitoring Scheme: collated indices 2021
Collated indices are a relative measure of butterfly abundance across sites monitored as part of the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme. Data from all survey sites (standard UKBMS transects, Wider Countryside Survey transects and targeted species surveys such as timed,...
Seedlings growth in a fertilized forest in Central Amazonia (2019 – 2020)
Data are presented showing seedling height, diameter at ground height (DGH), total number of leaves, number of leaves with herbivory damage and leaf mortality, from a plot based fertilisation experiment. The experiment was carried out at the Biological Dynamics of Forest...
Invertebrate herbivory data across a natural soil temperature gradient in Iceland from May-July 2017
This is a dataset of environmental data, vegetation cover, and community- and species-level invertebrate herbivory, sampled at 14 experimental soil plots in the Hengill geothermal valley, Iceland, from May to July 2017. The plots span a temperature gradient of 5-35...
Palm frond damage from herbivory in Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function in Tropical Agriculture (BEFTA) plots, Kandista and Ujun Tanjung estates, Indonesia
Data comprise counts of damage to palm fronds in mature oil palm (2013-2015), and mature and replanted oil palm (2016-2017) plots as part of a large-scale ecological experiment programme (the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function in Tropical Agriculture project, established...
Understory herbaceous plant cover in secondary woodlands on the Isle of Wight, 2021
A species by quadrat matrix showing the percentage cover of understory herbaceous plants in ancient and recent woodlands varying in age and isolation. Percentage cover was calculated for each species individually. The data was collected on the Isle of Wight, woodlands...
Morphological and morphometric data on the axial skeletons of vertebrates from museum specimens
Computed tomography (CT) scans of 212 museum specimens, including mostly cartilaginous and bony fishes as well as several reptiles and amphibians, were obtained to quantitatively study vertebral column morphology and regionalisation. The specimens are housed in the...
United Kingdom Butterfly Monitoring Scheme: site indices 2018
Site indices, as a relative measure of the actual population size, for UK butterfly species calculated from data from the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme (UKBMS). Site indices are a relative rather than an absolute measure of the size of a population, and have been shown...
Sedimentological, ecological and physical data collected from UK saltmarsh sites by the Carbon Storage in Intertidal Environments (C-SIDE) project
This data collection comprises sedimentological, ecological and physical data from the Carbon Storage in Intertidal Environments (C-SIDE) project. The C-SIDE project delivers discovery science that informs policy via the integrated study of blue carbon in UK saltmarsh...
Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) in saltmarsh and mudflat habitats
The Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) dataset details surface reflectance measured as NDVI. NDVI provides a proxy for the amount and/or the relative 'greenness' of vegetation. Data collection was carried out at six intertidal sites in the winter and summer...
Eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide, energy and water fluxes at a cropland, Yorkshire, UK, 2021-2023
The dataset includes 30-minute observations of land-atmosphere exchange of net ecosystem carbon dioxide exchange and sensible and latent heat measured over two years in a cropland in Yorkshire, UK. Fluxes were measured using the eddy covariance method.
Carbon and nutrient data for rainfall fractions in the Peruvian Amazon
Aquatic carbon (dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and particulate organic carbon and the carbon isotopic composition of DIC) and nutrients (calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, total soluble phosphorus and silica) in rainfall fractions...
Hydrological and meteorological data for three plots with different vegetation near Andasibe, Madagascar, 2014-2015
Hydrological and meteorological data were collected for three plots (each 50 x 50 m in size) near Andasibe village in the Corridor Ankeniheny-Zahamena (CAZ) in eastern Madagascar. The plots differ in terms of land cover: semi-mature forest, reforested tree fallow (i.e.,...
