This dataset contains the transcripts of interviews and discussion groups on the current soya production from ten villages in the Gurue district, Zambezia province, Mozambique. The ten villages were selected from different stages of a land scarcity gradient running...

This dataset entails two components: 1) an agricultural soil survey on fields covered with plastic mulch film to determine drivers of microplastic enrichment and identify microplastic types in China, Egypt, India, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam; 2) an inter-laboratory comparison...

Gridded potential evapotranspiration over Great Britain for the years 1961-2019 at 1 km resolution. This dataset contains two potential evapotranspiration variables calculated using the Penman-Monteith equation parameterised for well-watered short grass: daily total...

This dataset contains information on the location of the count, some environmental variables, and the number of insects of each type counted for the Flower-Insect Timed Count survey as part of the UK Pollinator Monitoring Scheme (PoMS). It covers the years 2017 to 2022...

This dataset contains information on activity parameters obtained from automated radiotelemetry data collected on individual birds of six passerine species (European robin, Eurasian blackbird, great tit, blue tit, dunnock, common chaffinch). Birds were caught via mistnetting...

This is part of an ongoing long-term monitoring dataset of surface temperature, surface oxygen, water clarity, water chemistry and phytoplankton chlorophyll a from fortnightly sampling at Blelham Tarn in Cumbria, England, that began in 1945 for some variables. The data...

Regular temperature, rainfall and other weather data, as collected between February 1999 and September 2002 from an on-site Automatic Weather Station, located on experimental plots at Sourhope, Scotland. Data were collected as part of the NERC Soil Biodiversity Thematic...

This resource contains anonymised interviews with community members in Chundu Ward, Hurungwe District, Zimbabwe, conducted to further our understanding of how the local community interacts with tsetse. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with key informants in...

The data consist of observations of cover of plant species in permanent quadrats in a nitrogen deposition experiment on a peat bog. The experiment was located at Whim Moss in central Scotland, between 2002 and 2016. Recording of cover was by visual assessment in 40...

This information product contains gridded estimates of Ellenberg vegetation indicator scores for four different indicators: fertility (N); pH/reactivity (R); light availability (L) and moisture (F) at 1km2 resolution. Both cover-weighted (cwt) and non-cover weighted...

This dataset contains soil biogeochemical data collected along gradients of windthrow disturbance in Kielder Forest, Northumberland, England, in summer 2022 as part of the Monitoring Underground Disturbance (MUD) BioBank. We established ~200 m transects at 10 sites...

Soil organic carbon pools, soil water content, and soil respiration were modelled throughout the soil profile under both control and drought conditions, as well as various drought scenarios, utilizing the ECOSSE model (Estimate Carbon in Organic Soils - Sequestration...

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...

The dataset details surface sediment colloidal carbohydrate concentrations across six intertidal sites in the winter and summer of 2013. Colloidal carbohydrate concentrations in surface sediments (top 2mm) provide a quantitative measure of the extracellular polymeric...

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...

This dataset contains Leptospirosis case numbers for a number of place studies in Brazil, Malaysia, Philippines, Argentina, China and Sri Lanka. Leptospirosis case numbers are provided as weekly or monthly case numbers and cover the period 1978 to 2020, although timelines...

This dataset contains daily soil moisture estimates using prototype cosmic ray neutron sensors. The sensors were deployed in a centre-pivot irrigation site in the state of Bahia, Brazil, and measurements were taken hourly between June and December, 2023. The dataset...

The dataset contains spectrophotometrically measured chlorophyll absorbance data from lake and river samples incubated with different nitrogen, phosphorus, silica or combined nutrients, as bioassays, either ex situ for phytoplankton or in situ for periphyton. These...

The dataset provides raw infrared temperature data from a thermal camera at the Birmingham Institute for Forest Research Free Air CO2 Enrichment (BIFoR-FACE) experimental site from July 2021 to September 2023. The variable recorded is surface temperature, predominately...

This dataset contains high-resolution (5-minute) discharge, turbidity, suspended sediment concentration, and total phosphorus concentration data measured at three stream sites in the Littlestock Brook catchment (a tributary of the River Evenlode) from 2017 to 2021....
