Soil microbial potential enzyme activities in fertilised plots in the Central Amazon, 2018

The data consists of potential activity of enzymes released by microorganisms in soils of old growth forests in the Central Amazon. Soils were sampled in January 2018, seven months after nutrient...

Plant biodiversity and associated environmental data along an invasion gradient of Urochloa decumbens following prescribed burnings in a tropical savanna, Cerrado region, Brazil, 2019-2021

[THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN]. The data comprise measurements of the impact of two prescribed annual burnings on the ecological properties of an invasion gradient by Urochloa decumbens in a...

Water table depth data from Climoor fieldsite in Clocaenog Forest 2009 - 2015

This dataset includes manual measurements in centimetres from the surface of the soil of water table depth at the Climoor fieldsite in the Clocaenog Forest, north-east Wales. Water table depth was...

Fine root arbuscular mycorrhizal colonisation in fertilised plots in Central Amazon, 2018

The data consists of total arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonisation in fine roots in old growth forests in Central Amazon. Fine roots younger than three months were sampled using the ingrowth core...

Zinc tolerance measurements for Silene uniflora populations in the UK and Ireland, 2021

The dataset contains: (i) estimates of zinc tolerance for 50 populations of Silene uniflora in the UK and Ireland generated between 03/2021 and 09/2021. The data were collected using cuttings from...

Concentrations of plant growth promoting compounds in soils and hydroponics due to the interaction of plants and earthworms

Data comprise phytohormone concentrations (plant growth hormones: adenosine, zeatin, isopentenyladenosine, indole-3-acetic acid and abscisic acid) measured during plant growth experiments in soil...

Response of seed germination to smoke water solutions in Cerrado plant species collected between 2013 and 2020

This dataset contains information about how seeds collected from Brazilian Cerrado plant species germinate in smoke water and control water solutions. Seeds were collected from site across the...

Meteorological and soil data from Whim Bog, Scotland, UK, 2003–2023

This dataset contains information about meteorological conditions, soil parameters and water table depth at Whim Bog, an ombrotrophic heather-dominated bog near Edinburgh, Scotland. Meteorological...

Element ratios of seawater and of aragonite precipitated in vitro from seawater at 25°C over variable pH and seawater saturation state and in the presence and absence of amino acids (aspartic acid, glutamic acid and glycine)

Strontium/calcium, magnesium/calcium, lithium/calcium and boron/calcium ratios of 107 aragonite samples precipitated in vitro using a pH stat titrator using the constant composition technique...

EU Project: Publications: CO2QUEST – Impact of the Quality of CO2 on Storage and Transport

Coordinated by Haroun Mahgerefteh at UCL, the EC funded FP7 CO2QUEST project addressed the main challenges associated with determining the optimal composition and purity of CO2 product streams...

Geophysical, hydraulic and mechanical properties of synthetic versus natural sandstones under variable stress conditions. (NERC grant NE/R013535/1)

The use of synthetic samples for rock physics experiments in the lab is a common practice for reservoir characterization and reservoir studies. This dataset gather ultrasonic P- and S-wave...

Laboratory Scale-up, Optimisation, and Characterisation of Ce-based Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs) for CO2 Capture Applications

Provided here are the experimental data for the synthesis and characterisation of crystallinity and CO2 capture performance of Ce-based metal-organic frameworks. For more details on this material,...

Biometric data illustrating species-specific growth response of coccolithophores to Palaeocene-Eocene environmental change (NERC Grant NE/H017291/1)

These data were produced within the objectives of the NERC grant (alongside collaborator Gibbs at NOC, Southampton) and predominantly comprise biometric data collected under light microscope at...

Deformation and acoustic emission of Neapolitan Yellow Tuff

These data represent a series of analyses exploring the seismic behaviours of low-cohesion volcanic sediments – in this case the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff - under varying strain rates. The data...

Species point records from 1989 MNCR Whiteness Voe survey

Whiteness Voe was selected in 1987 as a Marine Consultation Area. The Voe was chosen as a representative site for one of the few voes in Shetland for which there was a presumption against fish...

Species point records from 1983 Smith Mull littoral survey

31 sites were surveyed on Mull. Further work is recommended, as Mull is a large area. The authors admit that algae, sponges, smaller crustacean and bryozoa in particular were under-recorded, with...
