Dune migration measurements on the South Saskatchewan River, Canada, 2017
Data were collected in 2017, to provide information on spatial patterns of dune migration rates and associated water flow characteristics, at locations on the South Saskatchewan River, Canada. Dune migration rates were measured using repeat aerial imagery. Bedform crests...
Topsoil physico-chemical properties from the UKCEH Countryside Survey, Great Britain, 2018-2019
This dataset consists of measurements of topsoil (0-15 cm) physico-chemical properties from soils sampled from the first 106 1-km squares across Great Britain in 2018 and 2019 as part of a rolling soil and vegetation monitoring program of 500 1-km squares repeated every...
Daily and sub-daily hydrometeorological and soil data (2013-2019) [COSMOS-UK]
This dataset contains daily and sub-daily hydrometeorological and soil observations from COSMOS-UK (cosmic-ray soil moisture) monitoring network from October 2013 to the end of 2019. These data are from 51 sites across the UK recording a range of hydrometeorological...

Soil microbial potential enzyme activities in fertilised plots in the Central Amazon, 2018
The data consists of potential activity of enzymes released by microorganisms in soils of old growth forests in the Central Amazon. Soils were sampled in January 2018, seven months after nutrient addition in a large-scale nutrient fertilisation experiment. Enzyme activities...
CEH Land Cover plus: Pesticides 2012-2016 (England and Wales)
This data product maps pesticide applications across England and Wales. It is produced at a 1km resolution with units of kg active ingredient applied per year. Pesticide application rates (kg/km2/yr) are calculated for each of the crops grown in each 1km square, with...

Mealworm predation rates in Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function in Tropical Agriculture (BEFTA) plots, Kandista and Ujun Tanjung estates, Indonesia
Data comprise mealworm predation rates measured after 24 hours exposure to invertebrates in mature oil palm (2014), and mature and replanted oil palm (2016-2017) plots as part of a large-scale ecological experiment programme (the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Function...
Traits data for the butterflies and macro-moths of Great Britain and Ireland, 2023
Here, we present a comprehensive traits database for the butterflies and macro-moths of Great Britain and Ireland. The database covers 968 species in 21 families. Ecological traits fall into four main categories: life cycle ecology and phenology, host plant specificity...
Water chemistry and organic matter composition in UK and Faroe Island surface waters, 2018-2020
The dataset shows the results of water chemistry and organic matter composition analysis, from water samples collected from surface waters in the UK and Faroe Islands. The water samples were collected from 2018-2020.
Fine root nutrient concentration in fertilised plots in the Central Amazon, 2018
The data consists of carbon, micro and macro nutrient concentrations in fine roots (<2mm diameter) in old growth forests in Central Amazon. Fine roots younger than three months were sampled using the ingrowth core technique in a large-scale nutrient fertilisation experiment....
Vegetation plot data from the UKCEH Countryside Survey, Great Britain, 2020 and 2021
This dataset consists of plant species presence and abundance in different sizes of plots recorded from 159 1km squares across Great Britain in 2020 and 2021, as part of a rolling soil and vegetation monitoring program of 500 1km squares, beginning in 2019 and repeated...
Input to Yield Ratio (IYR) maps for wheat farming in England, 2010-2017
These maps show the Input to Yield Ratio (IYR) of wheat farming in England, calculated as the ratio of agrochemical inputs to agricultural reward as yield. We assess the IYR at a 1km resolution for wheat grown in England over the period the period 2010-2017, considering...
Ecological, dietary, and socio-economic data from 10 smallholder farming villages in Jumla District, Nepal, 2021-2022
