Several forest inventories in mangroves were conducted in different places and on different dates. Inventories take place at 6 main locations : Iracoubo, Sinnamary, Macouria, Cayenne, Petit Cayenne and Kaw. 1. at Iracoubo, forest inventories were carried out in 2003 and cover an area of 4800 m², 2. at Sinnamary, forest inventories were conducted in 1997, 2003 and 2004 on 9440 m², 3. at Macouria, 2824 m² were inventoried in 2006, 4. in the south-west of Cayenne, 10800 m² were inventoried in 1993, 5. at Petit-Cayenne, forest inventories were conducted in 2011 on 10000 m², 6. and in the Area of Kaw, three inventories in 2002, 2004 and 2005 cover an area of 34925 m². During the forest inventories, the collected data concern DBH, overall height or 1st branch height, the inter-trees distance in a forest plot, sometimes the surface salinity and state of the tree (living/dead).

The site Crique Bastien is composed of two 3km-transects (20m wide). 2608 trees with dbh>=20cm have been recorded by Office national des forêts (ONF). No fauna inventories available. No under-storey plants inventories are available. Soils have been described using 3 samples (1.20m depth max.). No laboratory analysis available for soils.

This dataset is based on the digital (vector) version of the Soils of Scotland 1:250,000 maps and the Land Cover of Scotland 1988. The topsoil carbon percentage in this data set has been computed using data from the Scottish Soils Knowledge Base (SSKIB).

Guyadiv is a network of permanent forest plots installed in French Guiana. The site of Guyadiv in Counami is composed of 19 1200sq.m-plots. A complete inventory has been made on these plots, during 3 inventory sessions in 2000, 2001 and 2002. 1743 trees have been inventoried, with 92,2% to 100% of trees identified to species level. We only have the point coordinates and not the precise demarcation of the sample plots. In order to calculate the bounding box for these plots, we have expanded the point location 500 meters in each direction.

This dataset contains a depth grid with 100 meters spacing, built on sounding information from the hydrographic surveys in the Arelho mouth. The depth values are referred to the Hydrographic Zero (ZH).

Indexes and data records for Regional gravity observations on the UK mainland, Northern Ireland, offshore islands, tidal estuaries and seabed. Records include station identities, position, gravity reading and reduced gravity values. Most of the surveys were carried out by the BGS but the database includes data originally acquired by other organisations and subsequently given to the BGS to be managed as part of the national archive. Complete coverage of the UK mainland with a station density of 1-2 stations per square kilometre.

This is the digital dataset which was created by digitising the Soils of Scotland 1:25,000 Soil maps and the Soils of Scotland 1:25,000 Dyeline Masters. The Soils of Scotland 1:25,000 Soil maps were the source documents for the production of the Soils of Scotland 1:63,360 and 1:50,000 published map series. The classification is based on Soil Associations, Soil Series and Phases which reflect parent material, major soil group, and soil sub-groups, drainage and (for phases), texture, stoniness, land use, rockiness, topography and organic matter. Phases are not always mapped. In general terms this dataset primarily covers the cultivated land of Scotland but also includes some upland areas . Not all of the available source documents have been digitised. Should there be a requirement for other areas to be captured, the Internal Contact should be contacted in the first instance. Attribute definitions: The attributes on each map (coverage) are specific to that map sheet, but in general terms the following categories are mapped: soil association, soil series, parent material, soil complexes, soil phases, skeletal soils, alluvial soils, organic soils, miscellaneous soils, mixed bottom land, built-up area, quarries/disturbed ground, collieries/bings, golf courses.

The site Sables Blancs is composed of two 2.5km-transects (20m wide). 1627 trees with dbh>=20cm have been recorded by Office national des forêts (ONF). No fauna inventories. No under-storey plants inventory. No soil sample has been made on this site. No laboratory analysis available for soils.

The coupling between the REMO atmosphere model and the MPI-OM ocean model was carried out using the OASIS coupler. OASIS is used for variables exchange and for coupling time synchronization only. A conservative bilinear interpolation routine is integrated in the MPIOM model to interpolate fields between REMO and MPIOM model grids. The HD model makes its own interpolation for REMO fields. REMO calculates heat, freshwater and momentum fluxes for each grid box and receives in turn SST, sea ice thickness and compactness from the ocean model. The atmosphere-ocean coupling frequency is set to 2 hours and the calculation of the river routing is every 24 hours.

The Marine Hard Substrate dataset maps areas of rock or hard substrate outcropping or within 0.5m of the sea-bed. The interpretation was based on a variety of data sourced from within the British Geological Survey and externally. Data consulted includes archive sample and seismic records, side scan sonar, multibeam bathymetry and Olex datasets. The distribution of hard substrate at the seabed, or within 0.5 m is important in dictating the benthic assemblages found in certain areas. Therefore, an understanding of the distribution of these substrates is of primary importance in marine planning and designation of Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs) under the Marine and Coastal Access Act, 2009. In addition, a number of other users will value these data, including marine renewable companies, aggregate companies, the fishing and oil and gas industries. In order to address this issue it was necessary to update British Geological Survey sea-bed mapping to delineate areas where rock, boulders or cobbles are present at, or within 0.5m of the sea-bed surface. A polygon shape file showing areas of rock or hard substrate at, or within 0.5m of the sea-bed has been developed. The dataset has been created as vector polygons and are available in a range of GIS formats, including ArcGIS (.shp), ArcInfo Coverages and MapInfo (.tab). More specialised formats may be available but may incur additional processing costs.
