Forest inventory and lightning strikes data from Ankasa Conservation area, Ghana, 2018-2021
This dataset contains includes measurements of trees and lianas stem diameters and status (e.g. alive, dead), and lightning strike data for forest areas within the Ankasa Conservation Area, collected between June 2018 and July 2021. We investigated tree mortality drive...
Nitrous oxide and methane fluxes from different understory treatments in oil palm plantations in Riau, Indonesia 2018-2019
This dataset contains terrestrial fluxes of nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and ecosystem respiration (carbon dioxide (CO2)) calculated from static chamber measurements in mature oil palm plantations on mineral soil, managed by Sinar Mas Agro Resources and Technology...
River planform dynamics in the Beas and Sutlej catchments, India, 1847 and 1989-2018
The data was produced as part of a study to determine human impacts on river planform change within the context of short- and long-term river channel dynamics. To this end, the Himalayan Sutlej-Beas River system was used as a case study to (i) systematically assess...
Canopy height measured by LiDAR during the 2015-16 El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event in Malaysian Borneo
The dataset contains top-of-canopy height before and after the 2015-15 El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event across a human-modified tropical landscape in Malaysian Borneo. The derived changes in top-of-canopy height from 36,655 repeated measurements were investigated....
Population dynamics of evolving bacterial populations in liquid media, 2020
This data was collected from co-evolving bacterial populations containing Pseudomonas fluorescens strain SBW25 and a plasmid, pQBR57. The composition of the community was tracked using flow cytometry to distinguish 1) an unlabelled wild type strain 2) a dTomato compensated...
Physiological responses of marine phytoplankton to acute and chronic thermal stress
These data comprise the physiology-based measurements made on the cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. and Synechococcus sp., the pennate diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum, and the coccolithophore Emiliana huxleyi. A variety of experimental manipulations were carried out...
Building, infrastructure, and river channel reaches in Chamoli district, India, following the ice-debris flow, February 2021
These data are GIS shapefiles which contain geospatial information describing the location and condition of bridges, buildings and roads in Chamoli District, Uttarakhand, India, following the 7th February 2021 avalanche and debris flow hazard cascade (the so-called...
United Kingdom Butterfly Monitoring Scheme: site indices 2021
This dataset comprises individual site indices for UK butterfly species calculated from data from the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme (UKBMS). Site indices are a relative rather than an absolute measure of the size of a population, and have been shown to relate closely...
Tree canopy cover and height data at 10m resolution for the Elenydd landscape, Wales, 2023
This dataset provides information on tree canopy cover percentage and mean canopy height, both at a 10m resolution, for the Elenydd landscape in mid-Wales. The data was derived from LiDAR analysis, which was used to create a vegetation height model for the region. From...
