Topsoil physico-chemical properties from the UKCEH Countryside Survey, Great Britain, 2020, v2
This dataset consists of measures of topsoil (0-15 cm) physico-chemical properties from soils sampled from 48 x 1-km squares across Great Britain in 2020 as part of a rolling soil and vegetation monitoring program of 500 1-km squares repeated every 5 years. The properties...
Soil biological activity in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, Ukraine, September 2005 and spring 2016
Data comprise site location, soil chemistry (pH, soil moisture), soil radionuclide activity concentrations (the isotopes measured were: Americium-241, Caesium-137, Plutonium-238, -239 and -240, Strontium-90 (K-40 and U-238 activity concentrations were estimated from...
Carbon and nitrogen content in soils and vegetation from calcareous grassland, heathland and woodland sites in Dorset, 2017-2018
This dataset contains carbon and nitrogen data from soils and vegetation from 13 calcareous grassland, 13 heathland and 12 woodland sites within Dorset, UK. The sites were selected to represent a range of habitat types across a condition gradient as measured by levels...
National Plant Monitoring Scheme survey data (2015-2023)
This data resource provides plot-level plant occurrence data for the first nine years (2015-2023) of the National Plant Monitoring Scheme (covering the UK, the Channel Islands, and the Isle of Man). Data consist of individual observations of plants, and other habitat...
United Kingdom Butterfly Monitoring Scheme: species trends 2023
This dataset provides linear trends, over varying time periods, for the Collated Indices of individual butterfly species across the UK. The main statistical values derived from a linear regression (slope, standard error, P-value) are presented for the entire time series...
Surface temperature, surface oxygen, water clarity, water chemistry and phytoplankton chlorophyll a data from Bassenthwaite Lake, 2014 to 2018
This is part of an ongoing long-term monitoring dataset of surface temperature, surface oxygen, water clarity, water chemistry and phytoplankton chlorophyll a from fortnightly sampling by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH) at Bassenthwaite Lake in Cumbria,...
