Stand-scale multiproxy palaeoecological data from Cambusurich Wood, Scotland
This dataset contains information about multiple palaeoecological proxies – pollen, non-pollen palynomorphs, spores, microcharcoal, plant macrofossils and macrocharcoal – generated from stand-scale (forest hollow-based) analyses of Cambusurich Wood Site of Special Scientific...
Extent and tree species composition from a Scottish deciduous woodland survey, 1976-1979
A survey of the extent and species composition of the deciduous woodlands of Scotland (including those with some admixture of conifers) was undertaken between 1976 and 1979, by the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology, funded by the Natural Environment Research Council...
Eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide, energy and water fluxes at a winter wheat field, Lincolnshire, UK, 2012
This dataset contains time series observations of surface-atmosphere exchanges of net ecosystem carbon dioxide exchange (NEE), sensible heat (H) and latent heat (LE), and momentum (τ) measured at a field of winter wheat in Lincolnshire, UK during the 2012 growing season....
