This dataset comprises observations from treatments comparing conventional (LDPE) and biodegradable (PLA/PBAT) plastic mulch films in both new and field-weathered conditions. The dataset was generated from a controlled mesocosm experiment designed by researchers to...

This dataset contains information about the development of a paper analytical device for the detection of the microcystin toxin. Water samples were collected weekly from Rostherne Mere and Tatton Park Lake, Cheshire between 20/07/2022 and 12/10/2022. Samples were analysed...

These data were collected from surface sediments (0-5 cm) at sites located along the Athens Riviera and Salamina coastline, Greece. The sediments came from both oil-contaminated (via Agia Zoni II oil-spill) and uncontaminated sites and were first collected between September...

This dataset contains the annual flow data of organic waste and nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) in the region of Leicester City and Leicestershire Country in the UK, for the year of 2019.

These datasets contain information about the physicochemical properties of water samples taken from Pondicherry and Chennai in 2023 and 2024. Water samples were collected from river, lake, canal and tank water bodies in Pondicherry and Chennai, with locations selected...

The data contain metrics of risk to earthworms, springtails, lacewings, parasitic wasps, bumblebees, honeybees and two solitary bees (Osmia bicornis and Osmia cornuta) from exposure to pesticides applied to arable crops in 5 Km grid cells in England every other year...

This dataset contains information about predicted future erosion hazards to electricity transmission towers at a site in the Mersey River valley. River channel change and floodplain erosion rates were simulated under 6 hypothetical flow scenarios, covering the years...

Projections of global changes in water scarcity with the current extent of croplands were combined to identify the potential country level vulnerabilities of cropland land to water scarcity in 2050. The data relate to an analysis of the impact changes in water availability...

This dataset contains flammability metrics for fuel types that are commonly involved in wildfires in the UK. Flammability data were obtained by cone calorimetry, and include measures of ignitibility (time to ignition), peak heat release rate, total heat release, and...

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...

This dataset contains fuel moisture contents and flammability metrics for samples of common heather (Calluna vulgaris) collected across the United Kingdom between 15th April and 20th May 2023. A total of 830 samples were used to measure fuel moisture content (FMC),...

This dataset scores the relative risks of Phytophthora x alni infection for 50034 fragments in Scotland identified as containing any of the three alder species susceptible to the pathogen (common alder, Italian alder and grey alder). Fragment risk scores integrate climate...

This dataset describes an experimental test of potential over yielding effects on fruit set and average fruit size for tomato plants grown in the presence of three pollinator combinations: (1) the bumblebee Bombus terrestris (2) Lasioglossum spp. and (3) and additive...

Here, we present the Global Multi-Index Drought (GMID) dataset, which includes some of the most used and widely recommended standardised drought indices: the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), the Evaporative Drought Demand Index (EDDI), the Standardized Precipitation...

Data comprise plot details and radionuclide activity concentrations for Sr-90, Cs-137, Am-241, Pu-238, Pu-239 and Pu-240 in ‘grassy’ vegetation and soil. These radionuclide activity concentrations have been used to make estimations of total weighted absorbed doses to...

This dataset contains biogeochemical and edaphic information from burned peat soil on the Stalybridge estate located near Manchester (UK), commonly referred to as Saddleworth moor. This study was conducted after a wildfire fire on the Saddleworth moor in June 2018. The...

This dataset contains measurements from a 12-month field experiment in the UK assessing the degradation, microplastic generation, and environmental impacts of seven plastic mulch films exposed above and below ground, alongside associated soil, environmental, and material...

This product consists of maps of predicted annual application rates (kg/km2/yr) of three different inorganic chemical fertilisers - nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) - in England across a seven-year period (2015-2021). Annual estimates, along with their...

This dataset contains morphological data from the isopod crustacean, Asellus aquaticus collected from Chernobyl affected areas of Belarus and Ukraine in 2015. This data was collected to calculate fluctuating asymmetry, a measure of developmental stability, in organisms...

This dataset contains information relating to the temporal and geographic distribution of clinically relevant bacterial pathogens on waste materials (plastics, fabrics, organics) within urban waste piles, in Blantyre, Malawi. The data was collected between June 2022...
