Biogeochemical and edaphic data from burned peat soil on the Stalybridge estate (UK), October 2018

This dataset contains biogeochemical and edaphic information from burned peat soil on the Stalybridge estate located near Manchester (UK), commonly referred to as Saddleworth moor. This study was...

Soil Series occurrence within Landuse types

All possible series, landuse group combinations with an indication of whether it occurs in England and Wales.

Daily soil moisture maps for the UK (2016-2023) at 2 km resolution

The data consist of daily maps of volumetric soil moisture predicted by a model based on a network of cosmic-ray neutron sensors (COSMOS-UK), the National River Flow Archive (NRFA) and...

Carbon and nitrogen stocks in soil organic matter fractions along grassland-to-forest conversion chronosequences across Scotland in 2018

This dataset contains the carbon and nitrogen content of soil organic matter fractions collected along grassland-to-forest conversion chronosequences. Four chronosequences of grassland-to-forest...

Invertebrate herbivory data across a natural soil temperature gradient in Iceland from May-July 2017

This is a dataset of environmental data, vegetation cover, and community- and species-level invertebrate herbivory, sampled at 14 experimental soil plots in the Hengill geothermal valley, Iceland,...

Soil fauna abundance under birch and willow vegetation in girdled and non-girdled plots, subarctic Sweden, 2019

Data comprise numbers of soil microarthorpods (mesofauna) extracted over 10 days from soils in northern, subarctic Sweden sampled on 29th July 2019. Soils were sampled from treeline mountain birch...

Soil physical, chemical and biological measurements in the Conwy Catchment (North Wales) 2013 and 2014

The data consist of general physical, biological and chemical parameters for soil samples taken in the Conwy catchment in North West Wales. Samples were collected between 2013 and 2014 across a...

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;...

Greenhouse Gas exchange data from Flanders Moss forest with associated temperature and soil water data

The effect of tree (lodgepole pine) planting with and without intensive drainage on soil greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes was assessed after 45 yr at a raised peatbog in West Flanders Moss, central...

Soil biological properties from a digestate experiment on winter wheat at North Wyke and Henfaes Farm, UK (2017)

The data consist of nitrogen gene data, soil biodiversity indices and microbial community composition for three soil depths (0-15, 15-30 and 30-60 cm) from a winter wheat field experiment located...

Soil hydrological characteristics for three areas in the Corridor Ankeniheny-Zahamena (CAZ), Madagascar

We determined the soil hydrological characteristics for 51 sites located in three regions in the Corridor Ankeniheny-Zahamena (CAZ) in Madagascar. The sites differed in terms of land use and land...
