Soil protozoa data from Sourhope field experiment site, Scotland [NERC Soil Biodiversity Programme]
This set of data describes protozoa abundance and diversity in samples taken at the Sourhope experimental site in 1999 and 2000 by the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology and the University of Glasgow. Data were collected during a project funded under the NERC Soil Biodiversity...
Ecosystem productivity data from wetland sites in the Pastaza-Marañón Basin, Amazonian Peru, 2018-2020
Ecosystem productivity data primarily from two forest census plots, NYO-03 and VEN-02, located in the Pastaza-Marañón Basin in Amazonian Peru. Site NYO-03 is a peatland pole forest, and Site VEN-02 is a palm swamp. The aim of the measurements was to estimate and compare...
Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) measurements over UK farmlands, April-September 2021
Repeat electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) measurements were conducted over four sites to capture the changing resistivity of the soil throughout the agricultural growing season, with measurements taken in Spring, Summer, and Autumn to detect the change between...
The Predatory Bird Monitoring Scheme (PBMS)
This is a collection of data in which the PBMS has contributed expertise, knowledge, techniques and samples (e.g. to PhD studies that have published data). The PBMS is a long-term, national monitoring scheme that quantifies the concentrations of contaminants in the...
Bird Vocalisation Activity (BiVA) database: annotated soundscapes from the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone
Data comprise audio files captured using a Wildlife Acoustics SM3 Songmeter located on an overgrown unpaved road close to several abandoned houses with deciduous trees (including fruit trees in former gardens) in the abandoned village of Buryakovka in the Chernobyl...
Fruit yield of the raspberry (Rubus idaeus) under different pollination treatments, Reading, England, 2019-2021
This data is the fruit set and marketable fruit set (percentage and success: failure) of commercial raspberry plants under four different pollination treatments. The data also includes fruit measurements (weight in grams and length and width in mms) of these fruit and...
Geochemistry and grain size of terrestrial sediments collected across a stream network, Swineshaw Moor, UK, 2018
This dataset contains details of sediment geochemistry, loss-on-ignition and sediment median particle size for terrestrial sediment samples collected across the stream network of Harehill and Swineshaw Moors, Stalybridge, Tameside, Manchester. Samples were collected...
UK moth trends from Rothamsted Insect Survey light-trap network (1968 to 2016)
The dataset contains national trends for 432 species of moths (mostly macro-moths) estimated using the moth data collected by Rothamsted Insect Survey (RIS) from their national light-trap network between the years 1968 and 2016. The trends were calculated using a Generalised...

Global gridded monthly mean Leaf Area Index (LAI) for five Plant Functional Types (PFTs) derived from the Global LAnd Surface Satellite (GLASS) products for the period 2000-2014
A new monthly long term average (climatology) of Leaf Area Index (LAI) has been developed for use as ancillary data with the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) Land Surface Model and the UK Met Office Unified Model. It is derived from an improved version of...
Bed level change within the Tollesbury managed realignment site, Blackwater estuary, Essex, UK between 1995 and 2007
Bed level data are presented from transects at the Tollesbury Managed Realignment site, after the managed breaching of the sea wall in August 1995. Twenty measurements were taken at fixed positions along transects relative to an aluminium bar placed across a pair of...

European Monitoring and Evaluation Program Model for the UK (EMEP4UK) daily atmospheric composition and flux output data, UK, 1960-2020
This dataset is a model output from the European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme (EMEP) model applied to the UK (EMEP4UK) driven by Weather and Research Forecast model meteorology (WRF). It provides daily mean atmospheric compositions and fluxes of the UK on a 3x3...
Code and UK observation-based historical climate input data for the Rainfall and Weather GENerator (RWGEN) stochastic model
This dataset contains the stochastic Rainfall and Weather GENerator (RWGEN) model and observational historical climate inputs for UK applications. The model simulates one or more stochastic realisations of any length for rainfall (mm), temperature (°C) and potential...
Soil biodiversity, carbon cycling and crop plant biomass responses to experimental biochar amendment of agricultural soil (Dundee, UK)
These data describe the results of a three year (2011-2013) factorial experiment using plant-soil mesocosms testing the effects of biochar on soil biodiversity and soil carbon fluxes. The experimental design comprised three treatments: (1) biochar (absence or presence...

Extractable phosphorus and microbial biomass phosphorus from two UK grassland soils under elevated CO2, 2018-2020
This dataset contains information on bio-available phosphorus and microbial biomass phosphorus from two UK grassland soils and how this is affected by elevated CO2 (eCO2). The soils are from naturally phosphorus limited grasslands in the Peak District National Park,...
Land Cover Map 2019 (land parcels, GB)
This is the land parcels (polygon) dataset for the UKCEH Land Cover Map of 2019 (LCM2019) representing Great Britain. It describes Great Britain's land cover in 2019 using UKCEH Land Cover Classes, which are based on UK Biodiversity Action Plan broad habitats. This...
