Surface and Meteorological Data of Protodune Dynamics at Helga's Interdune Area, Gobabeb, Namib Desert, Namibia, 12th September 2023

This dataset includes raw point cloud data from repeat terrestrial laser scans (TLS) for early-stage protodunes migrating and eroding on a gravel surface in the Helga's Interdune Area, Gobabeb,...

Surface and Meteorological Data of Protodune Dynamics at Helga's Interdune Area (north), Gobabeb, Namib Desert, Namibia from September to December 2023

This dataset includes raw point cloud data from repeat terrestrial laser scans (TLS) for measuring early-stage protodunes developing, migrating and eroding on a gravel surface in the Helga's...

Detrital zircon U-Pb ages from the Taklamakan Desert, the Yellow River, and the Chinese Loess Plateau. (NERC grant NE/I009248/1)

The dataset contains detrital zircon U-Pb ages from a large scale detrital provenance study of modern and recent sand and silt from the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) and its proposed sources in the...

Surface and Meteorological Data of Protodune Dynamics at Helga's Interdune Area, Gobabeb, Namib Desert, Namibia on 13th September 2022 (NERC Grant NE/R010196/1)

This dataset includes raw point cloud data from repeat terrestrial laser scans (TLS) for a field of protodunes that initiated and developed on a desert gravel interdune surface close to Helga's...

U-Th chronology results of Siberian and Mongolian speleothems, data used as the basis of a scientific paper. (NERC Grant NE/G013829/1)

The data presented in the Table 1 are U-Th chronology results of Siberian and Mongolian speleothems. This data is a basis for a scientific paper of Vaks, A. et al. (2013) "Speleothems Reveal...

Half hourly fluxes of sensible heat, latent energy and carbon, observed by eight eddy covariance towers in the Northern Chihuahuan Desert, North America, 2018-2019

Half-hourly data from eight eddy covariance towers deployed in the Sevilleta Refuge (New Mexico, USA). The main sensors deployed were sonic anemometer, relative humidity sensor and carbon dioxide...

Heavy mineral and bulk petrography data from modern, Quaternary and Cenozoic loess, sand and river sediment samples from northern China (NERC grant NE/I008837/1)

Files contain heavy mineral (HM) and framework petrography data for samples taken from sediments across Northern China, from Tarim in the west to Ordos in central north China. The data come from...

Morphology and migration data of protodunes and barchans on Mars and Earth

This dataset includes measurements of protodune and barchan height, length and migration on both Mars and Earth. Earth measurements were calculated from high resolution Terrestrial Laser Scans...

Chemical contaminants in White-tailed sea eagle eggs - Predatory Bird Monitoring Scheme (PBMS)

Data from analyses of addled and deserted sea eagle eggs collected by licensed collectors in Scotland. Contaminants reported include polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organochlorine pesticides or...

Chemical composition of Central Asian forage plants

The database of chemical composition of Central Asian forage plants contains just under 1000 desert and steppe species with information such as Latin and Russian names and family and related...

A Cellular Automaton Model for Investigating Landscape Development in Vegetated Aeolian

Vegetation plays an important role in landscapes that are shaped by wind-driven (aeolian) sand transport, such as coastal dunes and semi-arid regions. We have a good knowledge of how and why...

The Dalradian 'Snowball Earth' - Use of Stable Isotopes to Correlate Glacial Events and Neoproterozoic Stratigraphy of Scotland and Ireland

The 'snowball Earth' theory has been the subject of widespread media attention, particularly its lively defence by key proponent, Prof. Paul Hoffman. This period of earth history from 750 to 540...
