This dataset gives axiophyte score for plants in Great Britain, based on Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland (BSBI) published lists of axiophytes for 24 counties in Great Britain. Axiophytes have been defined as 'worthy plants', that is, species that are indicative...

This dataset includes stream and rainfall hydrochemistry of the Plynlimon (Pumlumon in Welsh) research catchments in Mid Wales. The data cover the period from March 2023 to March 2024. Sampling was carried out every four weeks by a team of researchers from UK Centre...

This dataset provides annual estimates of species occupancy and species trend estimates in the form of growth rates for 5,293 UK invertebrate, bryophyte and lichen species for the period 1970 to 2015. Estimates are provided at the country level for England, Scotland,...

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...

Saturated hydraulic conductivity, bulk density and soil organic carbon content were determined on soil samples extracted from the upper 50 cm of the soil profile for three paired upland woodland and grassland sites in northern England. The site pairs consisted of new...

The dataset contains monitoring data for plants (surveyed using quadrats), sward insects (surveyed using suction samplers), insect pollinators (surveyed using transects) and sward structure (surveyed using drop disk height) across 60 calcareous grassland restoration...

Data are of speed and accuracy of decision making in stickleback fish of different personalities. A laboratory population of three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) were repeatedly tested in a T-maze. The work was carried out between March 2012 and February...

This dataset maps the risks of Phytophthora ramorum infection for 79062 larch fragments identified in Scotland, of which 79060 were assigned a risk score. Two fragments without climate and/or habitat suitability scores were excluded. Fragment risk scores integrate multiple...

The dataset contains information on six functional traits of woody plants, including Leaf Area, Specific Leaf Area (SLA), Leaf Dry Matter Content (LDMC), Leaf Thickness (Lth), Wood Density (WD), Bark Thickness (BT). It also includes data on concentrations of C, N, P,...

This dataset contains height, foliage height diversity, mean crown area, tree count, bedrock, elevation, age, aspect and slope data for woodlands under 1ha in size that were also covered by Defra’s LiDAR survey in the year 2011 in the Isle of Wight. These data were...

Data comprise location (zone of interest, village name, site code, longitude, latitude, altitude and slope), local tree species name, tree code and tree diameter class of trees selected for direct measurements in the Ankeniheny Zahamena forest corridor, the remains...

This dataset provides linear trends, over varying time periods, for the Collated Indices of individual butterfly species across the UK. The main statistical values derived from a linear regression (slope, standard error, P-value) are presented for the entire time series...

This is a 25m pixel data set representing the land surface of Northern Ireland, classified into 21 UKCEH land cover classes, based upon Biodiversity Action Plan broad habitats. It is a three-band raster in GeoTiff format, produced by rasterising three properties of...

The dataset comprises the field soil organic matter content as a percentage at three depth zones (roughly 0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-30 cm), measured from bulk density soil samples taken within each 1metre x 1metre quadrat. Prior to measurement of bulk density all soil...

Data are presented for soil state and environmental parameters of soil samples collected from paired intensive and extensive grassland systems, including low and high pH parent soils, from 32 sites across the United Kingdom. The samples were collected during winter...

This 1 km summary pixel data set represents the land surface of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, classified using two classification schemas, target and aggregate classes. The target class schema comprise 21 UKCEH land cover classes based upon Biodiversity Action...

This dataset consists of plant species presence and abundance in different sizes of plots recorded from 259 1km squares across Great Britain in 2022 and 2023, as part of a rolling soil and vegetation monitoring program of 500 1km squares, beginning in 2019 and repeated...

Counts of caterpillars arising from a short-term experiment that installed lighting rigs in previously unlit areas to test for a change in nocturnal feeding behaviour. Caterpillars were counted from lit and control transects at two locations in Oxfordshire during January...

This dataset shows the collected information on species presence and activity in the city of Exeter, Devon, UK using recordings from static bat detectors placed strategically around the city. The dataset were collected between July and September 2022. Classifications...
