Tolerance of ash, oak and beech seedlings grown within woodlands to herbicides for the control of bramble (Alice Holt)

The effect of dormant season applications of triclopyr on the growth and survival of young trees was investigated in two experiments using transplants grown for one season beneath a canopy of...

Joule II Project Report: The underground disposal of carbon dioxide : Final Report

The purpose of Joule II Project Number CT92-0031 'The Underground Disposal of Carbon Dioxide' was to examine the potential for reducing CO2 emissions to the Earth's atmosphere from fossil fuel...

Spatial prioritisation of catchments suitable for using Natural Flood Management

This dataset concerns the spatial prioritisation of catchments suitable for reducing flood risk using Natural Flood Management or land use management and land use change within the Environmental...

Soil properties and soil greenhouse gas emissions in biochar-amended bioenergy soils undergoing long term field incubation

Data collected during field and laboratory experiments to investigate the long-term effects of biochar application to soil on greenhouse gas emissions in a bioenergy plantation (Miscanthus X....

Trial of biodegradable mulch materials (Kent 2012)

Mulches are materials applied to the soil surface to control the growth of competitive weeds. The durability, practicality, and weed control efficacy of a range of mulch materials was tested for...

Data from the experimental management of arable field options for rare plants

This dataset consists of vegetation abundance data from four experiments investigating the management of arable field options for rare plants. These experiments consisted of a margin management...

Scotland River Temperature Monitoring Network (SRTMN) - Tree planting prioritisation for shading rivers

River temperature is an important control on the health of fish populations. Under climate change it is expected that river temperature will rise with negative consequences for fish populations....
