This set of data describes resilience in microbial communities in samples taken at the Sourhope experimental site in 2001 by the Scottish Crop Research Institute, the University of Aberdeen and Cranfield University. Data were collected during a project funded under...
Woodland structural data derived from LiDAR for the year 2011 in the Isle of Wight
This dataset contains height, foliage height diversity, mean crown area, tree count, bedrock, elevation, age, aspect and slope data for woodlands under 1ha in size that were also covered by Defra’s LiDAR survey in the year 2011 in the Isle of Wight. These data were...
Nectar consumption, metabolic rate and activity datasets for bumblebees exposed to ecologically relevant radiation dose rates
This dataset contains information on the volume of nectar consumed, metabolic rate and activity of bumblebees that were exposed to environmentally relevant dose rates of ionising radiation at the University of Stirling. Data is for two connected experiments collected...
Survey data of greenspace users' preference scores for planted urban meadows and demographic data, Bedford and Luton, UK, 2014
The data comprise outcomes from questionnaire surveys conducted with greenspace users on their perceptions of experimentally manipulated urban meadows (varying levels of diversity and vegetation height of sown wildflower meadows), and associated socio-economic data...

High resolution European Monitoring and Evaluation Program Model for the UK (EMEP4UK) annual vegetation specific atmospheric deposition of oxidised sulphur, oxidised nitrogen, and reduced nitrogen for 2018
This dataset is a model output from the European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme (EMEP) model applied to the UK (EMEP4UK) driven by Weather and Research Forecast model meteorology (WRF). It provides annual averages of vegetation specific atmospheric deposition of...
Ash transport by surface runoff using a laboratory flume–based experiment
This dataset describes measurements of transport of ash by surface runoff using a laboratory setup (flumes). In the experiment, three inflow rates (0.25, 1 and 2 L/min) were applied to two typical ash depths found after wildfires (1 and 3 cm). Variables measured include...
Occurrence data at 10km resolution for terrestrial mammals in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, 1960-1992 and 2000-2016
This dataset contains 10km summarised occurrence data for terrestrial mammals as mapped in the Atlas of Mammal of Great Britain and Northern Ireland published by the Mammal Society in 2020. For each species 10km grid squares were categorised based on whether the species...
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...
Ozone flux, dynamic global vegetation, and carbon storage modelled data of tropical forests using the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES), 1900-2015
This dataset includes spatially-explicit input, output and summary data from the use of dynamic global vegetation model, the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES V5.6). This includes the spatial extent of extant, current-secondary and potential- secondary forests,...
Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) projected area of vegetation in saltmarsh habitats
