Vegetation cover, vegetation carbon content and soil carbon content under five ecosystem restoration pathways for the 21st century modelled using JULES
The data are fractional coverage of plant functional/surface types, carbon content in vegetation, carbon content in soil. The data are the result of simulations conducted in the JULES land surface model, of several complementary pathways for increasing forest coverage...
Impacts of Argentine ant (Linepithema humile) on seed dispersal services in Iberian Peninsula
This data set describes the seed dispersal process of both invaded (presence of Linepithema humile) and non-invaded (absence of L. humile) ant communities. Data were collected from four field sites in and around Girona (41.9794° N, 2.8214° E), Northern Spain, during...
Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) meteorological data from Cartmel Sands, Morecambe
The meteorological data describes the air and soil temperatures, net radiation balance, down-welling photosynthetically active radiation, wind speed, wind direction and the vapour pressure deficit. Data collection was carried out at Cartmel Sands marsh from the 31st...
Motion-activated camera trap images from the ECN Cairngorm long-term monitoring site, 2010-2022
Motion activated camera traps were installed in pine woodland and regenerating heathland from 2010 as part of UK Environmental Change Network long-term monitoring in the Allt a'Mharcaidh catchment, Cairngorms National Park, Scotland. The image catalogue contains...
Zinc tolerance measurements for Silene uniflora populations in the UK and Ireland, 2021
The dataset contains: (i) estimates of zinc tolerance for 50 populations of Silene uniflora in the UK and Ireland generated between 03/2021 and 09/2021. The data were collected using cuttings from wild collected specimens. Root growth of cuttings in zinc rich media...
A systematic review of common measurement methods of global soil protease activity between 1970-2020
The dataset contains global soil protease activities and common methodological parameters (i.e. fluorometric and colorimetric analysis) used to measure soil protease activity between 1970-2020. The dataset also includes key environmental parameters that affect protease...
Caterpillar activity under experimentally manipulated light conditions, Oxfordshire, UK, winter 2019
Counts of caterpillars arising from a short-term experiment that installed lighting rigs in previously unlit areas to test for a change in nocturnal feeding behaviour. Caterpillars were counted from lit and control transects at two locations in Oxfordshire during January...

Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) greenhouse gas fluxes in saltmarsh and mudflat habitats
The dataset details greenhouse gas fluxes as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) across six intertidal sites in the winter and summer of 2013. Three of the sites were in Morecambe Bay, North West England and three of the sites were in Essex,...
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,...
Phenotypic measurements of Howea belmoreana and Howea forsteriana from a common garden experiment on Lord Howe Island
The dataset describes the effect of soil type, soil sterilisation and drought treatment on survival rate and growth of Howea belmoreana and Howea forsteriana, grown from seed in an experiment on Lord Howe Island for 30 months. The data describe the number of surviving...
Mark-recapture data of individual birds from ringing records, Glasgow, UK, 2014-2022
This dataset contains information on individual birds caught at nestboxes or via mistnetting at 20 sites along a 35 km urban gradient in Glasgow, Scotland, 2014-2022. For each capture, we recorded the ring number of the individual, morphological parameters, whether...
