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 on antibiotic use in humans and animals, poultry keeping practices, waste disposal and hygiene in Bangladesh (2017)
A cross-sectional, interviewer-administered survey was conducted in 2017 in rural households, poultry farms and urban food markets. Survey data for each setting comprise three datafiles. The rural households and poultry farms (broiler chickens) were located in Mirzapur,...
Dung beetle abundance data from a before-and-after El Niño experiment in the Brazilian Amazon
This data set includes longitudinal abundance of dung beetles at dung-baited pitfall traps, recorded in 2010, 2016 and 2017 (around six years before, six months after and 18 months after the 2015-16 El Niño event, respectively) in the Brazilian Amazon region. Dung...
Chick behavioural responses to 3D-printed insect replicas, featuring combinations of traits from wasps and flies
These data describe individual behaviour during an experiment investigating chick responses to different trait combinations in 3D-printed insect replicas. Replicas were based on various combinations of shape, pattern, colour and size traits taken from either non-mimetic...
European Monitoring and Evaluation Program Model for the UK (EMEP4UK) monthly atmospheric deposition of oxidised sulphur, oxidised nitrogen, and reduced nitrogen for 2002-2021
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 UK estimates monthly averaged atmospheric deposition of oxidised...

Modelled surface nitrogen dioxide (NO2) for the grassland growing season in the UK and USA in 2018
This dataset consists of a vector layer (based on 1 by 1° grid), of modelled daily surface nitrogen dioxide (NO2, ug m-3). A seasonal average value per grid cell was calculated for the grassland growing season (mid-April to mid-July), for the USA and UK, in 2018.
210Pb-dated historical lake sediment metal concentrations from Norfolk, UK (mid-19th century to 2009)
Measurements of sediment properties (including organic and carbonate content), radionuclides (210Pb, 137Cs, 241Am) and elements (including mercury, nickel, copper, zinc, and lead) in lake sediment successions. Radionuclide dating provides a reliable chronology of sediment...
Caterpillar counts from grass margins and hedgerows under streetlights, Oxfordshire, UK, 2018-2020
This dataset contains information about moth caterpillar abundance at sites lit by streetlights (LED; high pressure sodium and low-pressure sodium) and unlit control sites. Caterpillars were sampled at 26 matched pairs of lit and unlit sites between 2018 and 2020 as...
