Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) macrofaunal biomass in mudflat and saltmarsh habitats
The dataset details macrofaunal biomass across 6 intertidal sites in the winter and summer of 2013. The data provide a quantitative measure of the biomass of individual invertebrate species present within the top 10cm of sediment. Three sites were located in Essex,...
Predicted soil erosion rates, nutrient fluxes and topsoil lifespans, modelled for Kenya at a 30 metre resolution
This dataset presents predicted soil erosion rates (t ha-1 yr-1) and its impact on topsoils, including lifespans (yr) assuming erosion rates remain constant and there is no replacement of soil; flux rates of soil organic carbon via erosion (t SOC ha-1 yr-1); flux rates...

Boulder movement in two debris flow channels and a landslide in the Bhote Koshi catchment, Nepal, May to October 2019
The data contains location and x,y,z accelerometer readings from trackers embedded into 23 boulders in the upper Bhote Koshi catchment, Nepal before the 2019 monsoon season. The data was transmitted in real time via a long-range wide-area network (LoRaWAN®) gateway...
Electrical resistance of trees and soil in Ankasa forest, Ghana, 2019
Measurements of tree resistance to ground and adjacent soils in the Ankasa Conservation Area located in southwestern Ghana. Tree species were selected as representative of the dominant species with diameter at breast height (DBH) ranging from 17.8 to 77.8 cm. The selected...
Dissolved Oxygen concentrations from Durleigh Reservoir, 2018
This dataset contains Dissolved oxygen concentrations from two different locations in Durleigh Reservoir in Somerset, England. Two miniDOT oxygen loggers were fitted with miniWIPERs and deployed at two locations in Durleigh on 30 May 2018. Both sensors were collected...
Dielectric measurements in soils and granular media for determining moisture
The data set contains laboratory measurements of the apparent permittivity (dielectric constant) of granular media and soils as a function of volumetric water content. Measurements include wetting, drainage, or both. In addition, there are measurements for granular...
