  • This dataset contains ecotoxicological measurements of coastal plant species Plantago coronopus, following exposure to microplastics and seawater inundation. The variables measured include mortality, growth, reproductive output, necrosis and photosynthetic efficiency, recorded over a total duration of 64-days. This dataset was created as part of an experiment to investigate the effects of exposure to commercial pre-production biodegradable (polybutylene adipate terephthalate, PBAT) and conventional (Polyethylene terephthalate, PET) microplastics (0.2 % w/w). Work was supported by the NERC funded BIO-PLASTIC-RISK project, grant NE/V007556/1.

  • This dataset contains acute and chronic ecotoxicology measurements of Eisenia fetida earthworms exposed to different types and concentrations of bio-based textile-derived microfibres. Acute test (72 hours) measured earthworm mortality across a range of fibre concentrations, following OECD TG 207 standard guidelines. Chronic tests (following OECD TG 222 guidelines), using one fibre concentration were conducted over 28-days and measured mortality, growth, reproductive output (number of egg cocoons and juveniles), oxidative stress and elemental composition of earthworms. Data were collected in order to establish lethal thresholds and sub-lethal effects of different textiles microfibres (bio-based and conventional). This research is part of the BIO-PLASTIC-RISK project, funded by Natural Environment Research Council through the grants NE/V007556/1 and NE/V007246/1.

  • This dataset contains ecotoxicology measurements of Eisenia fetida earthworms exposed to different types of bio-based teabags, at four concentration levels. Variables measured include mortality, growth, reproductive output (number of egg cocoons and juveniles) and were collected over a 28-day period. This research is part of the BIO-PLASTIC-RISK project, funded by Natural Environment Research Council through the grants NE/V007556/1 and NE/V007246/1.

  • This dataset contains a range of measurements associated with the degradation of Polylactic acid (PLA)-cellulose based teabags, buried in soil. Degradation measurements were calculated following a 7-month burial period from November 2021 to June 2022. Variables measured include: mass change, mass change of PLA, crystallinity change, and pyrolysis gas chromatography-Mass spectroscopy (GCMS) data for each teabag type. This research is part of the BIO-PLASTIC-RISK project, funded by Natural Environment Research Council through the grants NE/V007556/1 and NE/V007246/1.

  • The dataset contains information on the crystallographic orientation and on the grain size of minerals in the brittle-viscous shear zones. The methodology used to generate it is polarized light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD)

  • This dataset (1.5 GB) comprises SO2 emission data (SO2 camera and DOAS) of parts of the active 2013 phase from Colima, as well as Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and microprobe data of the collected ash from explosions and lava and dome rock. These data were used in the following paper: Cassidy, M., Cole, P.D., Hicks, K.E., Varley, N.R., Peters, N., Lerner, A. 'Rapid and slow: Varying ascent rates as a mechanism for Vulcanian explosions' Earth and Planetary Science Letters. 420: 73-84. doi:10.1016/j.epsl.2015.03.025

  • Stable Isotope and trace element analyses (Ca, Sr, Mg, Fe and Mn concentrations) derived from Cretaceous Belemnites including Duvalia tornajoensis, D. cf. lata constricta, D. binervia, D. cf. emericii, Hibolithes, H. cf. jaculoides, Berriasibelus, Castellanibelus and Pseudobelus.

  • Clumped isotope analyses, raw data, replicates and temperatures calculated using the empirical calibration of Wacker et al. (2014), recalculated using the [Brand] isotopic parameters.

  • Data from the IODP Expedition will be archived by the International Ocean Discovery Program, including all data generated during the shipboard palaeomagnetic and magnetic anisotropy analyses and all of the logging data (FMS tool, GBM data), plus associated explanatory notes. Shore based palaeomagnetic and magnetic anisotropy data, FMS---based reorientation parameters, and downhole magnetizations inferred from modelling of the GBM borehole magnetometer data will be made available to the international community via appropriate IODP Data Reports (in addition to primary journal articles). Data Includes: Shipboard cryogenic magnetometer data Shipboard and shore based discrete sample remanence data Shipboard and shore based magnetic anisotropy data FMS---based reorientation parameters Magnetic parameters modelled using borehole magnetometer data

  • This dataset contains measurements from smart sensors and cameras monitoring the movement of a single wooden dowel moving downstream in a flume. The following values in the x, y, and z directions are provided: velocity, linear acceleration, angular velocity, and filtered angular velocity. The quaternion components are also included. Four uniform flow conditions were tested, and the experiments were repeated about 50 times.
