This dataset contains information about the pairwise food web relationships between three trophic groups in montane deciduous forest in Western Sichuan, China: (i) Chinese tree species in the family Fagaceae; (ii) herbivorous Cynipid gallwasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Cynipini) collected from the tree species; & (iii) parasitoid wasps reared from the Cynipid galls. The records are for samples collected between November 2017 and June 2022 from two sites (Emeishan and Mianning) in Sichuan Province. The dataset contains 9 tables: Three are tables of relationships between galls and trees, at each of Emeishan and Mianning, and for both sites combined. Three are tables of relationships between parasitoids and trees, at Emeishan, Mianning, and for both sites combined. And three are tables of relationships between galls and parasitoids, at Emeishan, Mianning, and for both sites combined. The data were collected during individual tree-level surveys funded by a NERC Discovery grant (NE/T000120/1): ‘TRICOMM: Structure, assembly and evolution of natural tritrophic communities’.

These spatial layers map the suitability of climate conditions for infection of Phytophthora ramorum and Phytophthora kernoviae across the UK. The model is based on laboratory data of environmental responses of these pathogens and hourly temperature and relative humidity regimes between 2007 and 2011, and focuses on how many times infection could have been completed within running 48 hour periods through the year. Average suitability of conditions are mapped for the whole period and for individual years from 2007 to 2011. This research was funded by the Scottish Government under research contract CR/2008/55, 'Study of the epidemiology of Phytophthora ramorum and Phytophthora kernoviae in managed gardens and heathlands in Scotland' and involved collaborators from St Andrews University, Science and Advice for Scottish Agriculture (SASA), Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH), Forestry Commission, the Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA) and the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH). This dataset forms part of a series. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/a13d5821-824f-41ba-a930-26a5f0f4d2a6

Data comprise concentration ratios for lead and 210Pb in terrestrial wildlife and plants, and residual maximum likelihood (REML) model values for taxons (order, family and genus). Pb was used as an example of the derivation and application of a REML model for terrestrial wildlife species. The model outputs consists of a mean value for each taxa on a common scale after REML adjustment (referred to as the ‘REML mean’) taking account of the random factor (i.e. site). The REML mean value represents a relative scaling value. Funding for preparing this data set was provided by the TREE project (http://www.ceh.ac.uk/tree) funded by the NERC, the Environment Agency and Radioactive Waste Management Ltd. under the RATE programme.
