This dataset provides a list of surnames that are reliably Irish and that can be used for identifying textual references to Irish individuals in the London area and surrounding countryside within striking distance of the capital. This classification of the Irish necessarily includes the Irish-born and their descendants. The dataset has been validated for use on records up to the middle of the nineteenth century, and should only be used in cases in which a few mis-classifications of individuals would not undermine the results of the work, such as large-scale analyses. These data were created through an analysis of the 1841 Census of England and Wales, and validated against the Middlesex Criminal Registers (National Archives HO 26) and the Vagrant Lives Dataset (Crymble, Adam et al. (2014). Vagrant Lives: 14,789 Vagrants Processed by Middlesex County, 1777-1786. Zenodo. 10.5281/zenodo.13103). The sample was derived from the records of the Hundred of Ossulstone, which included much of rural and urban Middlesex, excluding the City of London and Westminster. The analysis was based upon a study of 278,949 adult males. Full details of the methodology for how this dataset was created can be found in the following article, and anyone intending to use this dataset for scholarly research is strongly encouraged to read it so that they understand the strengths and limits of this resource:

The UK and Ireland have many native pony breeds, yet there is a lack of comprehensive research investigating their genetic diversity and phylogenetic interrelationships. Many studies contain a limited number of pony breeds, or small sample sizes for these breeds. This may result in erroneous grouping of pony breeds that otherwise have intricate interrelationships with each other and are not evaluated correctly when placed as a token subset of a larger dataset. This is the first study that specifically investigates the genetic diversity within and between British and Irish native pony breeds using large sample numbers from locations of their native origin. This study used a panel of microsatellite markers and sequence analysis of the mitochondrial control region to analyse the genetic diversity within and between 11 pony breeds from Britain and Ireland. A large dataset was collected and previously published data were used to place the British and Irish ponies in a global context. The native ponies of Britain and Ireland were found to have had a complex history and the interrelationships between the breeds were revealed. Overall, high levels of genetic diversity were present, including maintenance of rare ancient matrilines in the Welsh and Fell breeds. In contrast the Dartmoor showed limited maternal diversity. A number of unexpected shared ancestral origins were elucidated between some breeds. The data generated herein provides valuable information to guide and implement the conservation of increasingly rare native genetic resources.

Extreme Sea Level values is part of Coastal Design/Extreme Sea Levels, a GIS dataset and supporting information providing design / extreme sea level and typical surge information around the coastline of the UK, including England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Isle of Man and Jersey. The information is relevant under present day (year 2018) conditions and does not account for future changes due to climate change, such as sea level rise. This is a specialist dataset which informs on work commenced around the coast ranging from coastal flood modelling, scheme design, strategic planning and flood risk assessments. Extreme Sea Level values describes the extreme sea levels for 16 different annual probabilities of exceedance. Confidence levels relating to the 5% and 95% lower and upper bounds of confidence are included. Mean High Water Spring (MHWS) and Highest Astronomical Tide (HAT) predicted tide levels are also included in the dataset for some sites but may not be used for navigational purposes. This 2018 update to the Coastal Design Sea Levels dataset was carried out in partnership for the UK Coastal Flood Forecasting partnership, which includes the Environment Agency (EA), Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and the Department for Infrastructure Northern Ireland (DfINI). The main project outputs include: Coastal flood boundary conditions for the UK: technical summary report Coastal flood boundary conditions for the UK: user guide Coastal design sea levels – coastal flood boundary surge shapes (2018) GIS output in British National Grid projection The main project outputs are available at the UK open data portal – see link below (https://data.gov.uk/dataset/73834283-7dc4-488a-9583-a920072d9a9d/coastal-design-sea-levels-coastal-flood-boundary-extreme-sea-levels-2018) The surge shape spreadsheet is also available at the link below (https://environment.data.gov.uk/dataset/84c97c5e-d465-11e4-afbd-f0def148f590) This dataset is an extract from the overall UK wide project that contains GIS output covering Northern Ireland. For convenience, this GIS dataset has been re-projected to Irish Grid.

In 1703 territorial waters were defined as extending out to three nautical miles of the coast - the distance that could be covered by a cannon shot. In 1958 the Geneva Convention introduced the concept of baselines from which all other measurements would begin. Baselines were to be smooth and parallel too, rather than following the detailed indentations of the coast. Baselines join headlands and may run to the low-water mark of islands. All waters - marine and transitional (estuarine) on the landward side of baselines - are part of the internal (inland) waters of the State. The territorial sea extends out to 12 nautical miles from the baselines. The Irish Republic territorial sea covers an area of 27,487 km squared. The area covered by internal waters is 13,650 km squared.

Species Groups recorded: bird Dataset Status: The dataset available through Biodiversity Maps is for the island of Ireland but is only a subset of the larger British and Irish dataset held by the BTO. It was used to produce the first British Trust for Ornithology /Irish Wildbird Conservancy (now BirdWatch Ireland) winter bird atlas published as Lack, P. (1986) The Atlas of Wintering Birds in Britain and Ireland. T. & A.D. Poyser, Calton. Additional Information: Full details of the methods used in the field, how fieldwork was organised and the interpretation of the maps is provided in the published atlas Lack, P. (1986) The Atlas of Wintering Birds in Britain and Ireland. T. & A.D. Poyser, Calton, or from the British Trust for Ornithology website at www.bto.org/birdatlas/previous/old_methods.htm. Specific queries as they relate to the Republic of Ireland should be made to BirdWatch Ireland at info@birdwatchireland.ie
The aims of the research project from which this digital resource arose were to facilitate more effective research into the history of Anglo-Irish relations in the Middle Ages, with special emphasis on the economic and social aspects of these relations, and to broaden the knowledge base of scholars working on economic relations between England and Ireland in the medieval period. The objectives were to identify Irish material from TNA which already existed in print and assess the reliability of these publications in order to decide whether researchers should be advised to consult the original documents, to publish previously unpublished Irish records, and to indicate to researchers where more unpublished Irish material might be found. Historians working on late medieval Ireland have tended to concentrate on a small number of series kept in TNA in search of relevant material. This project should encourage them to cast their nets much wider in the realistic hope of profitable catches. It has also proved difficult in the past to know which TNA documents have appeared in print, and how much reliance to place on these published transcripts and calendars. This project goes a long way towards removing this difficulty. In terms of new documents brought to light, the project should stimulate renewed interest in the fifteenth century, which has been relatively neglected in the past, partly because of the assumption that little surviving manuscript material remained. The digital resource consists of two files. One made up of documents relating to Ireland from series catalogued by TNA as 'Ancient Deeds', the other of Irish material from series of inquisition material. Most of the 64,000 documents in the Ancient Deeds series concern conveyances of land between private individuals or those pertaining to religious houses in England, which had subsequently been acquired by the Crown through forfeiture, purchase, escheat upon death without heir, or the dissolution of the monasteries. Others relate to transactions concerning individuals or ecclesiastical establishments in Scotland, Wales and Ireland, while a sizeable and significant miscellany of exchequer bills, writs and receipts, bonds and indentures, letters patent of appointment, attorney and indulgence, and wills and testaments supply the remainder. They thus constitute one of the most important resources for the study of landholding within the medieval British Isles. An inquisition was a legal enquiry held at the command of the king to provide answers to specific questions concerning the rights of the Crown. The different kinds of inquisition shared important features: they were conducted before officers of the Crown in or near the locality with which they were concerned; they heard evidence from local witnesses; they relied upon juries of local men to answer the questions asked.
The 'End of the Pier' Menai Strait data set is a collection of biogeochemical and physical parameters (including temperature, salinity, transmittance and attenuation of the water column) measured in the Menai Strait since 1955.The aim is to concatenate data both historical and current, preventing the loss of valuable information and creating a time series for a variety of parameters in a unique environment. Data have been extracted from Ph.D. and M.Sc. theses undertaken at the School of Ocean Sciences (SOS) at Bangor University, in addition to published sources. In all cases data has undergone a very thorough quality audit and sufficient detail is provided so that the original source may be located. Data collection is ongoing but the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) only holds data up to 2003.

The primary goal of the Irish Groundfish Survey is to develop estimates of juvenile abundance for important fish species. Measurements of the abundance of juvenile fish are a critical measure of the health of a stock, serving as an annual indication of recruitment (the number of newly spawned fish which enter the population each year) success or failure. Most importantly, they allow forecasting of future commercial abundance. In addition, the Irish Groundfish Survey provides data on the distribution and biology of commercial and non-commercial species of ecological interest, as well as hydrographic and environmental observations. When these data are combined with annual recruitment indices they can help identify the possible causes driving year-class success or failure, and allow us to see long-term changes in populations that may have been caused by fishing, pollution, or climate change. This spatial dataset comprises the haul station location from the trawl survey. The Irish Groundfish Survey feeds into the International Bottom Trawl Survey [ie. IBTS] for international reporting. The first survey took place in 1990 and is an annual survey since. This dataset covers from 2003-2009 period. This spatial dataset is a web viewer service which provides the user with the opportunity to choose the species, survey, and strata parameters and download the results to their own system.

The Shelf Sea Biogeochemistry (SSB) data set comprises hydrographic data, including measurements of temperature, salinity and currents, complemented by bathymetric and meteorological data. The study area is located in the Celtic Sea, shelf seas and shelf-edges around the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. The data were collected by a combination of research cruises that spanned from March 2014 to September 2015. Shipboard data collection involved the deployment of conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) packages in the study area. Continuous measurements of current velocities (using vessel mounted ADCPs, VMADCPs), bathymetry and surface ocean and meteorological properties were collected throughout each cruise. Moorings were deployed in the Celtic Sea in early 2014 and provided approximately two years worth of hydrographic time series data. The SSB programme aims to increase the understanding of the cycling of nutrients and carbon and the controls on primary and secondary production, and their role in wider biogeochemical cycles, which in turn will significantly improve predictive marine biogeochemical and ecosystem models over a range of scales. SSB brings together UK researchers from Bangor University, Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS), Meteorological Office, National Oceanography Centre (NOC), Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML), Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS), University of Aberdeen, University of East Anglia (UEA), University of Edinburgh, University of Liverpool, University of Oxford, University of Portsmouth and University of Southampton. It also has UK and Irish partners, as Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI), Marine Institute and Marine Scotland Science. The programme was divided into five work packages, having Jonathan Sharples as the Principal Investigator for work package 1 (CANDYFLOSS), Martin Solan as Principal Investigator for work package 2 (Biogeochemistry, macronutrient and carbon cycling in the benthic layer), Peter J. Statham as Principal Investigator for work package 3 (Supply of iron from shelf sediments to the ocean), Icarus Allen as Principal Investigator for work package 4 (Integrative Modelling for Shelf Seas Biogeochemistry) and Keith Weston as Principal Investigator for work package 5 (Blue Carbon – How much carbon is stored in UK shelf seas, what influences storage and could it be used in carbon trading?). All data will be managed by the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC).

Reports, images, GIS and gridded products describing the Palaeozoic geology and conventional petroleum systems of parts of the UK offshore from the greater Irish Sea area. Carboniferous rocks were the focus in areas from the Firth of Clyde, Solway Basin, Manx-Peel Basin to the East Irish Sea Basin and surrounding areas (Quadrants 110-126). The peer-reviewed products were produced for the 21CXRM Palaeozoic Project by BGS for DECC/OGA, Oil and Gas UK and oil company sponsors between November 2014 and May 2016, to improve regional digital datasets and knowledge of the underexplored Palaeozoic petroleum systems, and to stimulate exploration. The petroleum systems analysis was based on new interpretations of well, seismic, gravity-magnetic and source rock datasets, integrated with petrophysical studies, basin modelling and UK onshore knowledge. Released data were collated and interpreted, and interpretations of unreleased data were included with agreement of the data owners. Unreleased raw data is excluded. The datasets are applicable for use at scales between 1: 750,000 to 1: 3,000,000.
