Atmospheric fluxes of mineral dust-derived soluble trace elements to the ocean using thorium isotopes (ThorMap) project data

This dataset comprises of atmospheric aerosol, rainwater, seawater and soil data for soluble major ions, and soluble and total trace elements. Data were collected from land-based stations on Carcass Island, Falkland Islands (2010/11 and 2011/12), and Tudor Hill, Bermuda (samples to be confirmed), as well as on sea-going research cruises, M121 (2015), PS132 (2022), and DY157 (2023). Analyses were conducted using ion chromatography, Inductively Coupled Plasma - Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Inductively Coupled Plasma - Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES), depending on the element of interest. The data were collected to quantify the inputs of dust and its associated micronutrients to the ocean, and produce dust-flux maps, improving understanding of how bio-limiting elements such as iron (Fe) are made available in the open ocean. The analyses are still ongoing and therefore are not currently all made available. These data were collected and/or analysed by the University of East Anglia under the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Discovery Science project, Atmospheric fluxes of mineral dust-derived soluble trace elements to the ocean using thorium isotopes (ThorMap) (grant reference NE/V001213/1).

MicroRESPIRE - A global dataset of marine pelagic microbial respiration

This dataset includes measurements of marine microbial respiration and associated environmental variables contributed before July 2025 and collated within the UK research project MicroRESPIRE and the international working group Respiration in the Mesopelagic Ocean (ReMO). Measurements of prokaryote production and abundance are also included. Environmental variables include dissolved oxygen, temperature, phytoplankton chlorophyll, inorganic nutrients and dissolved and particulate carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus. The data are available in ASCII, Excel and Ocean Data View formats, with error values where available. Metadata include details of the methods used such as volume sampled, incubation time and temperature, equations used to derive oxygen consumption at in situ temperature and details of any filtration step. Data providers (with ORCID), links to the data centre where the original data are held and publications describing the data and methods are also included. The aim is for the dataset to be as easy to use as possible by field going scientists and modellers investigating the flux of carbon from the surface to the deep ocean, with a particular focus on the mesopelagic zone between 200 and 1000m.

Hazardous chemicals in cetaceans obtained from existing data and post-mortem examinations on stranded cetaceans in the UK (1991 - 2020)

These datasets contain chemical analysis data from stranded cetaceans, generated as part of the ChemPop NERC (Natural Environment Research Council) grant (NE/S000100/1) Marine Work Package. The stranded cetaceans were located along the UK coastline, from July 1991 to December 2020. The datasets include variables relating to where and when the animal stranded (National_Reference, Species, Date stranded, Latitude, Longitude, Location). The data also include variables that were collected during post-mortem (PM) examination (Sex, Length, Age Group, Condition at PM, Cause of Death Category, Cause of Death Class, Body Weight, Girth, Dorsal blubber thickness, Lateral blubber thickness and Ventral blubber thickness). The variable 'Tissue' is included to state which tissue underwent chemical analysis. 80 harbour porpoises and 83 common dolphins were analysed in total. For harbour porpoises, there are variables for each of the trace elements, determined by Cefas (Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science), using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). For the trace element data, there is also a variable for Total Solids so the metal concentrations can be converted from a wet weight to a dry weight. For common dolphins, there are variables for each of the 25 PCB (polychlorinated biphenyls) congeners, determined by Cefas, using gas-chromatography electron capture detection (GC-ECD). For the PCB data there is also a variable on lipid percentage as the sum. These data were collected with the aim to determine the burdens and impacts of hazardous chemicals on cetaceans. The data were collected as part of the collaborative UK Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme (CSIP), which has been running since 1990, funded by Defra and the Devolved Administrations.

Reconstructed annual mean fishing mortality data for 21 important North Sea stocks since 1850

Reconstructed annual mean North Sea fishing mortality 1850-2020 for 21 North 
Sea stocks. Further details can be found in the README file.

Sandeel, Norway pout, sandeel, herring, sole, whiting, plaice, haddock, cod, 
saithe are data-rich stocks with full ICES assessments. Horse mackerel and 
mackerel have assessments with lower levels of information behind them; poor 
cod, dab, long rough dab, lemon sole, witch, grey gurnard, starry ray, cuckoo 
ray, monkfish are data-poor.

Fishing mortality is in reciprocal years (yr-1), being the negative log of the 
fraction of the stock left after one year of fishing at this intensity. So if 
1/4 of the stock was fished out in a year, the mortality would be -log(1 - 
1/4) or ~0.29.

The relation between the annual harvest rate (H - 25% in the above case) and 
fishing mortality (F) in reciprocal years is given by:

F = - log ( 1 - H )

Fish stomach contents data 1893 - 2012

In recent years considerable emphasis has been placed on finding 
'ecosystem-based' approaches to fisheries management and multispecies models 
are seen as crucial for addressing this new agenda. However, there are 
currently, very few long-term datasets within the European context available 
for parameterising such models.

DAPSTOM (Integrated Database and Portal for Fish Stomach Records) is an 
ongoing initiative (supported by Defra and the EU) to digitize and make 
available fish stomach content records spanning the past 100 years. The online 
database contains information (over 225,000 records) on 188 predator species 
(most of those occurring in northern European groundfish surveys) and can be 
searched by predator name or by prey name for given sea areas and years. CSV 
data files can be outputted containing all records from a particular query. 
The current database contains information spanning 1893 - 2012.

2019 South Skye Seas Initiative Underwater marine life observation in Loch Scavaig

Survey to detect seagrass presence or absence using BlueRov2 from survey boat. Water Linked Underwater GPS used; however GPS location determined from survey boat location as underwater GPS system not working.  The GPS accuracy therefore reflects the maximum error -  the maximum distance the ROV could be from the boat is the 150m tether.

HMRC Business Plan Indicator and Quarterly Data Summary

NOTE: Since reporting year 2025 to 2026, these data are now published as HTML attachments. From January 2026, the data are now published monthly rather than quarterly.

Business plan indicators are initial management information to provide an indication of HMRC's performance, and are therefore subject to revision and audit. Final performance figures will be made available when the annual audited accounts and departmental report are published.

The quarterly data summary (QDS) is designed to fit on a single page to provide a quarterly snapshot on how each department is spending its budget, the results it has achieved and how it is deploying its workforce. Before using this data people should ensure they take full note of the caveats noted in the measurement annex and treat it with necessary caution.

At the moment, people should not be using this QDS data to make direct comparisons between departments for several reasons. Firstly, the business of each department is unique and it does not make sense to compare some measures across all departments. Secondly, many of the measures are not directly comparable because they do not have common definitions, time periods, or data collection processes.

UPDATE: From Q1 2013/14, the Cabinet Office now publish this QDS data on the Government Interrogation Spending Tool (GIST) website http://www.gist.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/.

UPDATE: The link for Quarter 3, 2023 to 2024 has been updated to reflect Digital Assistant interactions correction.
