Plant biodiversity and associated environmental data for a tropical savanna following invasion by Urochloa decumbens, Cerrado region, Brazil, 2019-2021

The data comprise measurements of abundance of invasive species, illuminance, air temperature, air humidity, specific leaf area, species richness, species diversity, vegetation cover, biomass,...

The Scaling Behaviour of Fluid Flow in Rock Fractures

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. Fluid flow through natural fractures depends upon the scaling behaviour of their fractually rough surfaces. We have developed techniques for imaging fluid flow in...

Plant and soil animal diversity measurements from a disturbance and nitrogen addition experiment in an upland grassland site [NERC Soil Biodiversity Programme]

Data comprises abundance measures of mites, collembola and plant biomass collected from a field experiment based at Sourhope. Experimental plots varied in nitrogen addition treatment and level of...

Baseline soil pH data from Sourhope field experiment site, Scotland, 1999-2002 [NERC Soil Biodiversity Programme]

This data set details soil pH values and soil moisture values from experimental plots at a field site at Sourhope, Scotland, between 1998 and 2002. Data were collected as part of the NERC Soil...

Reproductive output and adult lifespan of 308 invertebrate species subjected to temperature variations, from a meta-analysis of published literature

[This dataset is embargoed until December 31, 2024]. This dataset contains extracted data from studies reporting the effect of temperature on animal reproduction and adult lifespan. To identify...

Responses of soil nitrogen mineralization, root exudation, decomposition, mycorrhiza turnover and root uptake preference for N under elevated CO2 enrichment of a mature temperate oak forest, Staffordshire, UK, 2020-2022

The data set was generated at the University of Birmingham Free Air CO2 Enrichment (BIFoR-FACE) facility where the responses of nutrient transformation processes, litter decomposition, mycorrhizal...

Daily plot level (micro meteorological) data at Climoor field site in Clocaenog Forest 2022-2023

This dataset presents daily data from temperature and soil moisture sensors in each experimental plot (n=9 plots) at the Climoor field site. Soil temperature is measured at 5 cm and 20 cm soil...

Degree attainment by socioeconomic background: UK, 2017/18 to 2020/21

This study supplies experimental statistics on the association between degree attainment (i.e. the proportion of first degree qualifiers awarded a first or upper second class) and our area-based...

The Groves - Low Traffic Neighbourhood Trial

In June 2020, the decision was taken to implement a low traffic neighbourhood trial in The Groves. For more information on the trial please visit [__City of York Council's...

[THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN]. This dataset includes litterfall data from the experimental plots at the Climoor field site in the Clocaenog forest, NE Wales. Litterfall (natural senesced plant...

Developing Hydropyrolysis to Generate Molecular Biomarker Signals for Solving Key Problems in Oil Exploration where Conventional Biomarkers Fail (NER/T/S/2001/01153)

The aim is to realise the potential of hydropyrolysis (pyrolysis assisted by high hydrogen gas pressures) as a means to provide reliable molecular fingerprints for severely biodegraded oils,...

Developing Hydropyrolysis to Generate Molecular Biomarker Signals for Solving Key Problems in Oil Exploration Where Conventional Biomarkers Fail - Final Report

The aim is to realise the potential of hydropyrolysis (pyrolysis assisted by high hydrogen gas pressures) as a means to provide reliable molecular fingerprints for severely biodegraded oils,...

Comparison of available population estimates
