Species point records from 1990 FSCRC Cosheston Pill littoral sediment survey

The field work was carried out at low tide on the 12th February 1990. Five sample stations were established, three of which were located in an area where Shelduck are known to congregate and two in...

Settling behaviour of sand through a non-Newtonian colloidal mud suspension: Implications for turbidity current motion and turbidite deposition - Data

Deposition in many Ocean Margin settings involves settling of non-cohesive grains ('sand') through a non-Newtonian suspension of colloidal ('mud') particles. Although sand or mud-only settling is...

Pressure effect on anelasticity of pyrope. (NERC grant NE/K002902/1)

Radiographic images of pyrope samples synthesised at pressures of 4-15 GPa, all collected at 2.5GPa and temperatures from 773 to 1573K. The samples are deformed sinusoidally at strains of up to 5...

Pollinator effectiveness in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) in relation to behavioural and morphological characteristics
