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...
Numerical simulations of river bed dynamics for the South Saskatchewan River, Canada
Data were generated to investigate the influence of bed roughness on the dynamics of large sand-bed rivers like the South Saskatchewan, Canada. The influence of roughness was investigated by using a numerical model to simulate the evolution of the river bed for a hypothetical...
Technetium-99 (99Tc) transformations in aerobic soils following experimental addition of the radioactive anion 99TcO4-
The data comprise measurements of the 'soluble', 'adsorbed' and 'organically bound' 99Tc concentrations in a diverse set of soils following experimental addition of 99TcO4- and incubation in the laboratory under controlled temperature conditions for 897 days. The long...
Oil palm frond litter decomposition rates in Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function in Tropical Agriculture (BEFTA) plots, Kandista and Ujun Tanjung estates, Indonesia
Data comprise weight (grams) of dried oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) frond litter remaining in a variety of litter bags after 10, 30, 60 and 90 days buried under the litter layer in oil palm plantations located in Riau Province, Sumatra, Indonesia. The bags all initially...
