  11. Data resource: 1921 Onwards Occupied Swift Nests, UK

    The dataset is intended to be a comprehensive inventory of occupied common swift (Apus apus) nests (where swifts were observed using a nest site cavity). It includes records collected as part of various swift mapping projects including The Swift Inventory, The Swift Survey and The Swift Mapper. The aim of these projects was to better understand the reasons for the decline in swifts in the UK, and to help target conservation of swift nest sites. They collated data from a variety of sources, primarily a public request for information and local surveys. Between 2009-2015, records were collected as part of the ‘Swift Inventory’. This was a cooperative project involving the support of Concern for Swifts - Scotland, London's Swifts, Northern Ireland Swifts, the RSPB, Swift Conservation and UK Swifts. The ‘Swift Survey’ then ran from 2016 -2019. This was a national survey, including a website developed by Environmental Resource Management (ERM) to collect data from the public on nesting swifts. From 2020 onwards the ‘Swift Mapper’ tool has been used to collect records. The Swift Mapper is a mapping tool involving RSPB, Natural Apptitude, Swift Conservation, Action for Swifts and Swifts Local Network. Records prior to 2009 were provided by swift conservation groups and RSPB surveys. Accompanying datasets of nest boxes, previously occupied nests and low-level screaming swifts (probable breeders) are also available on the NBN. This dataset will be updated annually.

  12. Data resource: 1921 Onwards Swift Screaming Parties, UK

    This dataset contains reports of common swifts (Apus apus) flying at rooftop level, calling with their characteristic screaming sound. This behaviour indicates that swifts are probably nesting nearby. It includes records collected as part of various swift mapping projects including The Swift Inventory, The Swift Survey and The Swift Mapper. The aim of these projects was to better understand the reasons for the decline in swifts in the UK, and to help target conservation of swift nest sites. They collated data from a variety of sources, primarily a public request for information and local surveys. Between 2009-2015, records were collected as part of the ‘Swift Inventory’.

This dataset will be updated annually.

  13. Data resource: 1938-1941 Cole, HA Essex Estuary Urosalpinx cinerea records - Version 2.0

    This dataset is an amalgamation of ad-hoc sightings made by HA Cole from 1938 to 1941 of Urosalpinx cinerea in the oyster beds of the Essex estuaries.

  14. Data resource: 1949-1998 Great Britain Non-Native Species Information Portal (GBNNSIP) United Kingdom Collated record of historic distributions of marine non-native species from literature - Version 2.0

    This is the data from two surveys, the UK distribution records of Clymenella torquata and a survey of intertidal sites in Southampton water.

  15. Data resource: 1955-2022 Capercaillie Casual Records, Scotland

    This dataset contains casual sightings of capercaillie from a variety of observers (including capercaillie staff, stakeholders and general public) throughout the year, including through the Cairngorms Capercaillie Project app (from 2021-2023). Most of the records are from 1989 onwards. Casual sightings of signs during the National Surveys are recorded here but the records of bird seen during these surveys are found in separate National Survey datasets.

  16. Data resource: 1960 E. Naylor Swansea First UK record of Dyspanopeus sayi (Say's Mud Crab) - Version 2.0

    A record of Dyspanopeus sayi (Smith, 1869) in Swansea. The first known recorded in the UK.

  17. Data resource: 1960-1970 Barnes, RSK and Coughlan, J Blackwater Estuary Bottom Fauna Dredge Survey - Version 2.2

    A number of additions and corrections are made to the Blackwater Estuary fauna list. Distribution patterns revealed by a survey of the benthic fauna of the Blackwater Estuary in May 1970 are described, and changes in the frequency of occurrence of a number of species between 1960 and 1970 are discussed. It is concluded that the fauna of the region has, to a large extent, recovered from the severe winters of 1961-62 and 1962-63.

  18. Data resource: 1966-1986 T.G. Skinner Solway Firth Occurrence of some prominent zooplankton

    Three surveys were carried out by T.G. Skinner in the Solway Firth Areas. Surveys were carried out with plankton nets and a count of the species captured were carried out. This is the first survey: Observation on Solway Hydromedusae (Glasg. Nat. 19: 189-197 (1975)). Three surveys were carried out by T.G. Skinner in the Solway Firth Areas. Surveys were carried out with plankton nets and a count of the species captured were carried out. This survey is the second survey: Winter Occurrence of Solway Hydromedusae (Glasg. Nat. 20 Part 5: 439-450 (1984)). Three surveys were carried out by T.G. Skinner in the Solway Firth Areas. Surveys were carried out with plankton nets and a count of the species captured were carried out. This survey is the third survey and is documented in the following three papers: The Seasonal Occurence of Some Prominent Zooplankton Species in Rough Firth between March 1984 to March 1986. I. Scyphomedusae (Glasg. Nat. 22 Part 5: 471-484 (1995)), The Seasonal Occurence of Some Prominent Zooplankton Species in Rough Firth. II. Chaetognatha (Glasg. Nat. 22 Part 5: 479-484 (1995)), and The Seaonal Occurence of Some Prominent Species in Rough Firth. III. Decapod Larvae. (Glasg. Nat. 23. Part 1: 51-56 (1996)).

  20. Data resource: 1975 University of London Kent Ficopomatus enigmaticus collections

    A monthly sampling programme was carried out in 1975 of an intertidal population of Ficopomatus enigmaticus at Greenhithe, Kent. Greenhithe is on the south side of the Thames Estuary, and the study site (O.S. TQ 59367548), beneath a disused jetty belonging to Empire Paper Mills, is immediately opposite the large power station at West Thurrock, and 33-8 km below London Bridge, the normal limit for sea water ingression.
