This dataset accompanies the publication "How Flat is Flat? Investigating the spatial variability of snow surface temperature and roughness on landfast sea ice using UAVs in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica".
The dataset consists of 1) processed orthomosaic of RGB values, snow topography (digital elevation model), and surface temperature, 2) topography-dependent irradiance map, and 3) point data of measured radiation and atmospheric parameters in the McMurdo Sound, October-December 2022. The data was collected as part of the New Zealand Marsden Fund Research Grant 21-VUW-103 "Can Snow Change the Fate of Antarctic Sea Ice?". Unprocessed data associated with this field campaign are published in 10.16904/envidat.633.
For the airborne measurements, we used a DJI Matrice 30T, a multi-rotor (quadcopter) UAV with self-heating batteries, suitable for operations in polar conditions (temperature range from -20 to +50 °C). The UAV has a wide-angle camera (12 megapixels) for RGB images and a thermal camera (Uncooled Vox Microbolometer, long-wave infrared spectrum 8-14 µm, 1.31 megapixels) for TIR images with an accuracy of ±2 °C or ± 2 %.
GNSS data includes high-precision location information (latitude, longitude, ellipsoidal height, receiver clock offset, and timestamps formatted in decimal hours and day-of-year notation).
WE calculated the distribution of received solar irradiance over the sea-ice surface using a terrain-corrected radiative transfer model and measured shortwave radiation components, accounting for surface roughness, aspect, slope, and solar position during the flight, while applying terrain shading and measured diffuse radiation.
The broadband radiation station data consists of shortwave (Sw) and longwave (Lw) radiation measurements (Kipp & Zonen CMP22 pyranometers and CGR4 pyrgeometers).
Surface temperature readings from cold, sediment, and hot targets were recorded using Apogee SI-121-SS sensors.
This dataset also contains automated weather station (AWS) data (air and snow surface temperatures, relative humidity, wind direction, and wind speed).

Title: Monitoring data set at A1 (test-site of Totalp), years 2018-2022
Provider: ZHAW - EKZ
Edition: Y.Frischholz, Laboratory of Cryospheric Sciences, EPFL
Last edition: 17.01.2024
File name structure:
The test site contains 6 segments named from A to F. The six files provided in the data/ subfolder follow the same naming convention (e.g. for segment A, the file name is: “A1_A.csv”). Refer to the publication for further details on the setups of the segments.
File format:
All files are provided in the CSV format.
Column headings:
	•	timestamp (datetime64): time stamp in format “YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss”, time-zone: UTC
	•	poa_front (double): front plane-of-array irradiation (W/m**2)
	•	poa_back (double): rear plane-of-array irradiation (W/m**2)
	•	mod_temp (double): module’s temperature (°C)
	•	P_AC (double): output AC power (W)
Preprocessing:
	Outliers:
	⁃	Quantiles Q1 and Q99 are computed for each variable
	⁃	Values below Q1 and above Q99 are considered outliers
	⁃	Outliers are replaced by NaNs.
	Missing data:
	⁃	Data holes of less than 3 hours are interpolated linearly for all variables
	⁃	Data holes of more than 3 hours are replaced using the monthly nan-mean of the considered hour if more than 50% of the qualifying data points are available. For instance, if the data point 2022-12-12 12:12:00, is missing for a given variable and is part of a data hole larger than 3 hours, then it is replaced by the mean of all data points with hour = 12 of the month of December 2022, if 50% of all the qualifying data points are not NaN. In case more than 50% of the qualifying points are missing, the data point remains as missing (NaN).
	Wiring losses :
	⁃	As described in [1] , the test-site setup caused abnormally large wiring losses, mainly due to the distance to optimisers and to the low installed power per DC-wire.
	⁃	The wiring losses comprised between 10% and 15%, are averaged hourly and added to the measured DC power.

	Misc.:
	⁃	P_AC is computed for each segment based on the measured DC power and the average inverter’s efficiency (96.1%).
	⁃	As described in [1], the peak power of the installed module, used to compute the final yield is slightly different from the values announced by the manufacturer.
Mean uptime:
	Raw:
	⁃	95.2%
	Processed:
	⁃	100%

Title: Monitoring data set at A2 (utility-scale power-plant Muttsee), months 10.2022-09.2023
Provider: AXPO - IWB Industrielle Werke Basel
Last edition: 17.01.2024
Editor: Y.Frischholz, Laboratory of Cryospheric Sciences, EPFL
File name structure:
The power-plant is made of 23 string boxes (GAK) and inverters (WR) named after their given number. One file per device is provided in the data/ subfolder, following the same naming convention (e.g. for the string box number 1, the file name is: “A2_GAK01.csv” and for the corresponding inverter, the file name is “A2_WR01.csv”). Refer to the publication for further details on the setup of the power plant.
File format:
All files are provided in the CSV format.
Column headings:
	String boxes and inverters (GAK & WR):
	⁃	device_name (string): name of the device (same as file name)
	⁃	timestamp (datetime64): time stamp in format “YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss”, time-zone: UTC
	String boxes (GAK):
	⁃	I_ (double): input current from the substring number (W)
	⁃	I_SUM (double): output current of string box (A)
	⁃	U_DC (double): output voltage of string box (V)
	⁃	P_DC_ (double): input DC power from the substring number (W)
	⁃	P_DC (double): output DC power of string box (W)
	⁃	$S$_T#_$T$ (double): temperature from the sensor connected to the string box (empty if not existing), placed on the “front” or “back” side (S) of table T. Two types of temperature measurements (#) are available: 1=standard cell temperature (°C) , 2=module temperature on the rear side (°C) .
	⁃	$S$_SRAD_T (double): poa irradiation (W/m**2) from the sensor connected to the string box (empty if not existing), placed on the “front” or “back” side (S) of table T.
		Inverters (WR):
	⁃	I_DC (double): input DC current(A)
	⁃	U_DC(double): input DC voltage(V)
	⁃	P_DC (double): input DC power (W)
	⁃	P_AC (double): output AC power (W)
Preprocessing:
	1. Outliers:
	⁃	Quantiles Q1 and Q99 are computed for each variable
	⁃	Values below Q1 and above Q99 are considered outliers
	⁃	Outliers are replaced by NaNs.

	2. Missing data:
	⁃	Data holes of less or equal to 3 hours are interpolated linearly for all variables
	⁃	Data holes of more than 3 hours are replaced using the monthly nan-mean of the considered hour if more than 50% of the qualifying data points are available. For instance, if the data point 2022-12-12 12:12:00, is missing for a given variable and is part of a data hole larger than 3 hours, then it is replaced by the mean of all data points with hour = 12 of the month of December 2022, if 50% of all the qualifying data points are not NaN. In case more than 50% of the qualifying points are missing, the data point remains as missing (NaN).
	3. Wiring losses:
	⁃	To be consistent with A1, wiring losses are corrected at A2. The wiring loss between the string boxes and the inverters is removed by multiplying the value of input P_DC at the inverter level (P_DC,inv) by the mean ratio P_DC,inv / P_DC,arr.
	⁃	The computed mean wiring loss is 2.3\%. It is computed from 2023-02-01 to 2023-09-30, after the long data hole in the data sets of the string boxes.

Mean uptime:
	Raw:
	⁃	WR: 98.2%
	⁃	GAK*: 38.5%
	Processed:
	⁃	WR: 99.6%
	⁃	GAK*: 56.4%

	*The uptime at the string box level (GAK) is low because PMUs at this level shut down during steady and low signal leading to unavailable data at night. In addition, the 23 days downtime of 	January 2023 could not be interpolated nor replaced.

Close Range Remote Sensing Benchmark for different LiDAR and photogrammetric Sensors in a mixed temperate forest.
Benchmarks are needed to evaluate the performance of different close-range remote sensing devices and approaches, both in terms of efficiency as well as accuracy. In this study we evaluate the performance of two terrestrial (TLS), one handheld mobile (PLS) and two drone based (UAVLS) laser scanning systems to detect trees and extract the diameter at breast height (DBH) in three plots with a steep gradient in tree and understorey vegetation density. As a novelty, we also tested the acquisition of 3D point-clouds using a low-cost action camera (GoPro) in conjunction with the Structure from Motion (SfM) technique and compared its performance with those of the more costly LiDAR devices.

This repository contains data related to the field experiments of the RESTORE project. This project is a collaboration between the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL) and the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science & Technology (EMPA). It has received funding from the Swiss National Science Foundation. The overall objective of the RESTORE project was to assess the effects of green spaces as facilitators and noise as impediment to recover from stress in people's daily environments across Switzerland.
We conducted a randomized, controlled field study to compare the psychophysiological benefits of exposure to forests and urban built environments with different levels of road traffic noise in healthy adults during 30-minute walks in Zürich, Switzerland to explore:
1) The psychophysiological effects of walking in forests and urban built environments with disparate road traffic noise exposure
2) The effects of walking in urban forests and urban built environments with disparate road traffic noise exposure on repetitive negative thinking and connectedness with the non-human world
3) The effects of a mindful walking intervention in urban forests for healthy adults
Accordingly, this repository includes data and documentation for the 3 scientific articles:

The available datasets are snow depth maps with a spatial resolution of 0.5 m derived from images of the survey camera Vexcel Ultracam mounted on a piloted airplane. Image acquisition was carried out during the approximately peak of winter (time when the thickest snowpack is expected) in spring. The snow depth maps are calculated by the subtraction of a summer-DTM from the processed winter- DSM of the corresponding date. The summer-DTM used was derived from a point cloud of an airborne laser scanner from 2020.

Due to the occurrence of inaccuracies of the calculated snow depth values caused by the photogrammetric method, we applied different masks to significantly increase the reliability of the snow depth maps. We masked out settled areas, high-frequented streets and technical constructions, pixels with high vegetation (height > 0.5 m) , outliers and unrealistic snow depth values. In addition, we modified the snow depth values of snow-free pixels to 0.
The information on buildings and infrastructure comes from the exactly classified ALS point cloud and the TLM dataset from Swisstopo (https://www.swisstopo.admin.ch/de/geodata/landscape/tlm3d.html#links). High vegetation is also derived from the classification and the calculated object height from the point cloud.
Outliers and unrealistic snow depth values are defined as negative snow depth values and snow depths exceeding 10 m. The classification of each pixel of the corresponding orthophoto into snow-covered or snow-free is based on the application of a threshold of the NDSI or manually determined ratios of the RGB values.

An extensive accuracy assessment proves the high accuracy of the snow depth maps with a root mean square error of 0.25 m for the year 2017 and 0.15 m for the following snow depth maps.

Environmental DNA complements scientific trawling in surveys of marine fish biodiversity (Dataset 2020)

In October 2020 we chose 16 sites from the 2020 EVHOE survey for eDNA sampling. The French international EVHOE bottom trawl survey is carried out annually during autumn in the BoB to monitor demersal fish resources. All sites were located on the continental shelf (26–170 m depth), except one on the upper slope with a depth of 1045 m. To perform eDNA sampling, we collected water samples at 15 sites (Figure 1a). At each site, we sampled seawater using Niskin bottles deployed with a circular rosette. There were nine bottles on the rosette, each of them able to hold ∼5 l of water. At each site, we first cleaned the circular rosette and bottles with freshwater, then lowered the rosette (with bottles open) to 5 m above the sea bottom, and finally closed the bottles remotely from the boat. The 45 l of sampled water was transferred to four disposable and sterilized plastic bags of 11.25 l each to perform the filtration on-board in a laboratory dedicated to the processing of eDNA samples. To speed up the filtration process, we used two identical filtration devices, each composed of an Athena® peristaltic pump (Proactive Environmental Products LLC, Bradenton, Florida, USA; nominal flow of 1.0 l min–1 ), a VigiDNA 0.20 μm filtration capsule (SPYGEN, le Bourget du Lac, France), and disposable sterile tubing. Each filtration device filtered the water contained in two plastic bags (22.5 l), which represent two replicates per sampling site. We followed a rigorous protocol to avoid contamination during fieldwork, using disposable gloves and single-use filtration equipment and plastic bags to process each water sample. At the end of each filtration, we emptied the water inside the capsule that we replaced by 80 ml of CL1 conservation buffer and stored the samples at room temperature following the specifications of the manufacturer (SPYGEN, Le Bourget du Lac, France). We processed the eDNA capsules at SPYGEN, following the protocol proposed by Polanco-Fernández et al., (2020). We performed library preparation and sequencing at Fasteris (Geneva, Switzerland). Specifically, we prepared four libraries using the MetaFast protocol (a ligation-based method) and sequenced them separately. We carried out paired-end sequencing using a MiSeq sequencer (2 × 125 bp, Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) on two MiSeq Flow Cell Kits (v3; Illumina), following the manufacturer’s instructions. We analysed the sequence reads using the OBITools package (http:
//metabarcoding.org/obitools; Boyer et al., 2016), following the protocol described by Valentini et al. (2016).

Data content:
	* rawdata/: contains the raw reads for each individual sample. One archive contains the paired-end reads specified by the _R1 or _R2 suffix as well as individually tagged PCR replicates (if available) together with an archive containing all extraction and PCR blank samples of the library. Reads have been demultiplexed using cutadapt but not trimmed, individual demultiplexing tags and primers remain present in the sequences.
	* taxadata/: contains the table with all detected taxonomy for each sample after bioinformatic processing (see Polanco et al. 2020 for details; https://doi.org/10.1002/edn3.140) and associated field metadata.
	* metadata/: contains two metadata files, one related to the data collected in the field for each filter, and the second related to the sequencing process in the lab (including the tag sequence, library name, and marker information for each sample)

The .zip file contains 6 .csv files including all microphysical measurements taken at the Jungfraujoch station during the two periods of interest:

* 25-28 January 2014 : northwesterly-winds (NW)
* 29 January - 1 February 2014 : southeasterly-winds (SE)

The total Ice Crystal Number Concentration (ICNC; reported in L⁻¹) is measured by the two-dimensional stereo hydrometeor spectrometer (2D-S; Lawson et al., 2006) over the size range 10-1280 μm. The total ice water content (IWC; reported in gm⁻³) is also derived by the 2D-S data using the Brown and Francis (1995) mass-diameter relationship. Finally, the quantification of the liquid water content (LWC; reported in gm⁻³) is based on the liquid droplet size distribution data derived from a DMT cloud droplet probe (CDP; Lance et al., 2010) over the size range 2-50 μm. The frequency of the measurements in the .csv files is 30 min, to match the output frequency of the model. Datetime is also reported in the files (DD/MM/YYYY h:mm) in UTC.

Acknowledgment: Collection and pre-processing of the microphysical measurements has been performed by Gary Lloyd (gary.lloyd@manchester.ac.uk). More details about the instrumentation during the CLACE2014 campaign can be found in Lloyd et al. (2015).

The .zip file contains all the NetCDF outputs produced by the mesoscale Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model (version: 4.0.1). Two case studies were simulated in this study, between 25-28 January 2014 (00:00 UTC) and 29 January - 1 February 2014 (00:00 UTC), respectively. The former is denoted as "NW" and the latter as "SE", owing to the prevailing wind conditions at the Jungfraujoch (JFJ) station.

The outputs come from the innermost domain of the simulations with a spatial resolution of 1 km and are extracted from the nearest to JFJ model grid point (46.55°N 7.98°E). The dimensions of each model variable is [145,100], which corresponds to time and height, respectively. The frequency of the outputs is 30 min. Note that the first 24 hours of each simulation (i.e., the first 48 outputs) were considered spin up time.

The following sets of sensitivity simulations were presented in this study:

* CNTRL_NW.nc, CNTRL_SE.nc : Sensitivity simulations performed with the default version of WRF

en: To study the performance of mature Scots pine (_Pinus sylvestris_ L.) under chronic drought conditions in comparison to their immediate physiological response to drought release, a controlled long-term and large-scale irrigation experiment has been set up in 2003. The experiment is located in a xeric mature Scots pine forest in the Pfynwald (46° 18' N, 7° 36' E, 615 m a.s.l.) in one of the driest inner-Alpine valleys of the European Alps, the Valais (mean annual temperature: 9.2°C, annual precipitation sum: 657 mm, both 1961-1990). Tree age is on average 100 years, the top height is 10.8 m and the stand density is 730 stems ha-1 with a basal area of 27.3 m2 ha-1. The forest is described as _Erico Pinetum sylvestris_ and the soil is a shallow pararendzina characterized by low water retention. The experimental site (1.2 ha; 800 trees) is split up into eight plots of 1'000 m2 each. During April-October, irrigation is applied on four randomly selected plots with sprinklers of 1 m height at night using water from an adjacent water channel. The amount of irrigation corresponds to a supplementary rainfall of 700 mm year-1. Trees in the other four plots grow under naturally dry conditions. Soil moisture has been monitored since the beginning of the project at 3 soil depths (10, 20 and 60 cm). The crown condition of each tree is being assessed each year since 2003. Tree measurement data such as diameter at breast height, tree height, and social status were assessed in 2002, 2009 and 2014. The duration of the irrigation experiment is planned for 20 years.

In-situ measurements of aerosol size distributions along with updraft velocities collected from a wind Doppler Lidar are coupled with a state-of-the art droplet activation parameterization (Morales and Nenes, 2014) to determine the cloud droplet number and maximum in-cloud supersaturation that can potentially form over the Weissfluhjoch station between February 24 and March 8 2019. For this, a hygroscopicity parameter of 0.25 is assumed, according to the CCN-derived values. The data file contains:

Cloud Condensation Nuclei (CCN) data: A Droplet Measurement Technologies (DMT) single-column continuous-flow streamwise thermal gradient chamber (CFSTGC; Roberts and Nenes, 2005) was deployed at the measurement site Weissfluhjoch (2700 m a.s.l., LON: 9.806475, LAT: 46.832964) to record the in-situ CCN number concentrations between February 24 and March 8 2019 for different supersaturations (SS). To account for the difference between the ambient (~735 mbar) and the calibration pressure (~800 mbar), the SS reported by the instrument is adjusted by a factor of 0.92. The CFSTGC was cycled between 6 discrete SS values ranging from 0.09% to 0.74%, producing a full CCN spectrum every hour. The raw CCN measurements are filtered to discount periods of transient operation and whenever the room temperature housing the instrument changed sufficiently to induce a reset in column temperature. Additional information can be found in Section 2.1.2 [here](https://acp.copernicus.org/preprints/acp-2020-1036/).

Hygroscopicity data: The CCN number concentration measurements were directly related to the size distribution and total aerosol concentration data measured by the Scanning Mobility Particle Size Spectrometer (SMPS) instrument at the same station (https://www.envidat.ch/dataset/aerosol-data-weissfluhjoch) to infer the particles hygroscopicity parameter (kappa). For each SMPS scan, the particles critical dry diameter (Dcr) is estimated by integrating backward the SMPS size distribution, until the aerosol number matches the CCN concentration observed for the same time period as the SMPS scan. Assuming the particle chemical composition is internally mixed, the kappa is determined from Dcr and SS, applying Köhler theory. Additional information can be found in Section 2.2 [here](https://acp.copernicus.org/preprints/acp-2020-1036/).

Predicted cloud droplet numbers: Droplet calculations are carried out with the physically based aerosol activation parameterization of Morales and Nenes (2014), employing the “characteristic velocity” approach of Morales and Nenes (2010). Aerosol size distribution observations required to predict the cloud droplet numbers and maximum in-cloud supersaturation are obtained from the SMPS instrument deployed at Weissfluhjoch. The required vertical velocity measurements are derived from the wind Doppler Lidar (https://www.envidat.ch/dataset/lidar-wind-profiler-data) deployed at Davos Wolfgang and are extracted for the altitude of interest, being 1100 m above ground level for Weissfluhjoch. Additional information can be found in Section 2.3 [here](https://acp.copernicus.org/preprints/acp-2020-1036/).

The present dataset is part of the published scientific paper entitled “Landscape ecological concepts in planning: review of recent developments” (Hersperger et al., 2021). The goal of this research was to review recent publications to assess the use of landscape ecological concepts in planning. Specifically, we address the following research questions: Q1. Landscape ecological concepts: What are they? How frequently are they mentioned in current research? Q2. How are landscape ecological concepts integrated in landscape planning?

We analysed all empirical and overview papers that have been published in four key academic journals in the field of landscape ecology and landscape planning in the years 2015–2019 (n = 1918). Four key journals in the field of landscape ecology were selected to conduct the analysis, respectively Landscape Ecology (LE), Landscape Online (LO), Current Landscape Ecology Reports (CLER), and Landscape and Urban Planning (LUP). The title, abstract and keywords of all papers were read in order to identify landscape ecological concepts. Then, all 1918 papers went through a keyword search to identify the use of early and additional concepts. We used the “pdfsearch” package in R programming language and searched for singular and plural forms and different variations of the concepts (see Supplementary material 1, Table A). As a result, we provided four outputs:

  1. Frequency of early concepts. This data provides the total number of times each article used each early concept (Q1). This data was used to produce the Figure 2a at the original publication.

  2. Frequency of additional concepts. This data provides the total number of times each article used each additional concept (Q1). This data was used to produce the Figure 2b at the original publication.

  3. Use of any early concept. This data provides the total number of times each article used any early concept (Q1).

The present dataset is part of the published scientific paper entitled “The role of spatial planning in land change: An assessment of urban planning and nature conservation efficiency at the southeastern coast of Brazil” (Pierri Daunt, Inostroza and Hersperger, 2021). In this work, we evaluated the conformance of stated spatial planning goals and the outcomes in terms of urban compactness, basic services and housing provision, and nature conservation for different land-use strategies. We evaluate the 2005 Ecological-Economic Zoning (EEZ) and two municipal master plans from 2006 in a coastal region in São Paulo State, Brazil. We used Partial Least Squares Path Modelling (PLS-PM) to explain the relationship between the plan strategies and land-use change ten years after implementation in terms of urban compactness, basic services and housing increase, and nature conservation.

We acquired the data for the explanatory variables from different sources listed on Table 1. Since the model is spatially explicit, all input data were transformed to a 30 m resolution raster. Regarding the evaluated spatial plans, we acquired the zones limits from the São Paulo State Environmental Planning Division (CPLA-SP), Ilhabela and Ubatuba municipality.

1)	Land use and cover data: Urban persistence, Urban axial, Urban infill, Urban Isolates, Forest cover persistence, Forest cover gain, NDVI increase

We acquired two Landsat Collection 1 Higher-Level Surface Reflectance images distributed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), covering the entire study area (paths 76 and 77, row 220, WRS-2 reference system, https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/). We classified one image acquired by the Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM) sensor on 2005-05-150, and one image from the Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) sensor from 2015-08-15. We collected 100 samples for forest cover, 100 samples for built-up cover and 100 samples for other classes. We then classified these three classes of land cover at each image date using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) supervised algorithm (Hsu et al., 2003), using ENVI 5.0 software.

Land-use and land-cover changes from 2005 to 2015 were quantified using map algebra, by mathematically adding them together in pairs (10*LULC2015 + LULC2005). We reclassified the LULC data into forest gain (conversion of any 2005 LULC to forest cover in 2015); forest persistence (2005 forested pixels that remained forested in 2015); new built-up area (conversion of any 2005 LULC to built-up in 2015); and urban maintenance (2005 built-up pixels that remained built-up in 2015).

To describe the spatial configuration of the urban expansion, we classified the new built-up areas into axial, infill and isolated, following Inostroza et al. (2013) (For details, please refer to Supplementary Material I at the original publication).

The NDVI was obtained from the same source used for the LULC data. With the Google Engine platform, we used an annual average for the best pixels (without clouds) for 2005 and 2015, and we calculated the changes between dates. We used increases of > 0.2 NDVI to represent an improvement in forest quality.

2)	Federal Census data organization: Urban Basic Services and Housing indicator, socioeconomic and population:

The data used to infer the values of basic services provision, socioeconomic and population drivers was derived from the Brazilian National Census data (IBGE, 2000 and 2010). Population density, permanent housing unit density, mean income, basic education, and the percentage of houses receiving waste collection, sanitation and water provision services, called basic services in the context of this study, were calculated per 30 m pixel. The Human Development Index is only available at the municipality level. We attributed the HDI for the vector file with the municipality border, and we rasterized (30 m resolution) this file in QGIS. Annual rates of change were then calculated to allow comparability between LULC periods. To infer the BSH, we used only areas with an increase in permanent housing density and basic services provision (See Supplementary Material I at the original publication).

3)	Topographic drivers

To infer the values of the topographic driver, we used the slope data and the Topographic Index Position (TPI) based on the digital elevation model from SRTM (30 m resolution) produced by ALOS (freely available at eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/about/about_index.htm), and both variables were considered constant from 2005 to 2015 (See Supplementary Material I at the original publication).

 History of wetlands - GIS-Layers
 Location of wetlands based on signatures in topographic maps
* Basis 1850: original measuring table sheets Dufour created between the years 1834 and 1863.
* Basis 1900/ Basis 1950: The Siegfried maps were updated and published at regular intervals between 1870 and 1949. This long period of time made it possible to reconstruct wetlands for two periods based on the Siegfried Maps: the first edition (hereinafter referred to as "1900") and the last edition ("1950").
* Basis 2010: Map sheets from the National Map from 2006 to 2011 were used for the most recent time period of the reconstruction.
 Location of wetlands due to reconstructions
The reconstruction **must not** be interpreted in the sense of a surface-accurate separation, but shows without claim to location accuracy the approximate extent of the areas that would have corresponded to the mapping criteria for wetlands used in today's topographic maps around 1850, 1900 and 1950. The basics can be found in Stuber & Bürgi 2019, chapter 5.4.

en:
Naturally, large parts of the Swiss Plateau are characterised by wetlands
and meandering rivers. That this is no longer the case today is the result
of centuries of efforts to obtain dry land. But how did this process take
place? What were the relevant actors and what were their motivations? And
what can be said about the ecological consequences of this development?

In a research project on the history of wetlands in Switzerland since 1700,
we conducted (a) a historical analysis of the development of land use in
wetlands and the actors involved, (b) a historical-cartographic
reconstruction of wetland extent since 1850 and (c) an evaluation of
ecological effects of changes in wetlands on various organisms groups.

The series of GIS layers on wetland history stem from the second part of
the project. The area reconstruction is based on digitized and homogenized
signatures from national map series, as they have been available since
about 1850. Details about the digitalization process and the homogenization
procedures applied ("Rekonstruktionen") are included in Stuber & Bürgi
2019.

en: In this study, the Austin metropolitan area, Texas, U.S., one of the fastest urban transformations and transformations regions, is selected to test the hypothesis that spatial planning and policies are important factors of urban transformations. Despite ample previous work in understanding the interactions between human and urban form transformation at specific areas, the actual interventions and outcomes of planning and policies (e.g., ‘smart growth’) on urban forms have been poorly measured. In this study, the potential influencing factors of urban transformations of Austin over 25 years were selected and collected.

en: High quality meteorological data are needed for long-term forest ecosystem research, particularly in the light of global change. The long-term data series published here comprises almost 20 years of measurements for two meteorological stations in Jussy in Switzerland where one station is located within a natural broad-leaved forest stand (JUB) with sessile oak (_Quercus petrea_; 90 yrs), aspen (_Populus tremula_; 60 yrs) and European hornbeam (_Carpinus betulus_; 60 yrs) as dominant tree species. A second station is situated in the very vicinity outside of the forest (field station, JUF). The meteorological time series are presented in hourly time resolution of air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and wind speed. Jussy is part of the Long-term Forest Ecosystem Research Programme (LWF) established and maintained by the Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL.

The dataset Hydro-CH2018 reservoirs provides estimates of current and future water supply, water demand, and storage volumes for 307 medium-sized catchments in Switzerland.
Water supply for current (1981-2010) and future (2070-2099) climate conditions was simulated using the hydrological model PREVAH. For modeling current water supply, observed meteorological time series were used as input, while simulated meteorological time series derived from 39 model chains of the CH2018 initiative were used as an input for simulating future climate conditions.

Water demand was estimated for six categories:

- 1) Drinking water (households and tourism),
- 2) industry (second and third sector),
- 3) artificial snow production,
- 4) agriculture (irrigation and livestock feeding),
- 5) ecology (residual flows), and
- 6) hydropower.

Future estimates consider changes in demand related to population growth and changes in the hydrological conditions.
Storage volumes are provided for natural lakes (storage capacities and usable volumes), artificial reservoirs, reservoirs for artificial snow production, and drinking reservoirs.

A detailed description of the simulation and estimation procedures can be found in

This dataset was used to analyse effects of different biodiversity and functional group treatments, fertilizer and fungicide applications as well as weeding of vascular plants on the species richness and species composition of bryophytes for the following publication: Lin M., Bergamini A., Pichon N.A., Allan E, Boch S. 2025. Nitrogen enrichment and vascular plant richness loss reduce bryophyte richness. Scientific Reports.
In this study we surveyed 96 of 216 2 m x 2 m experimental plots of the PaNDiv experiment, a large grassland field experiment in the Swiss lowlands (Pichon et al. 2020). In the PaNDiv experiment four experimental treatments were applied in a full-factorial design manipulating: (1) the nitrogen availability (through fertilization), (2) the presence of fungal pathogens (through fungicide application), (3) the functional composition of the vascular plant community (represented here by community-weighted mean (CWM) SLA), and (4) the vascular plant richness (sowing of either 1, 4, 8 or 20 species). To maintain the original sown vascular plant species richness and composition, one part of each plot (1.5 m × 2 m) was weeded, while the other part has been left unweeded since the beginning of the experiment (0.5 m × 2 m).
On each plot we surveyed two subplots, the unweeded subplot and a weeded subplot of the same area (0.5 m × 2 m). On each subplot we established a complete list of all bryophyte species together with an estimate of their cover.
The provided excel file contains three sheets:
1.	A sheet with raw species lists of all plots surveyed together with information on all treatments and an estimation of the percentage cover of vascular plants in a summer campaign in August 2022. Cover of bryophytes was estimated for each species in percent.
2.	A sheet with a list of all bryophyte species with its growth form (acroarpous/pleurocarpous)
3.	A sheet with some explantations
By means of the provided R code and the data in the excel file, all analyses can be repeated.
More details to the data sampled can be found in Lin et al (2025).

In order to use the QGIS plugin ‘Seilaplan’ for digital cable line planning, a digital terrain model (DTM) is required. The plugin ‘Swiss Geo Downloader’, which is available for the open source geoinformation software QGIS, allows freely available Swiss geodata to be downloaded and displayed directly within QGIS. It was developed in 2021 by Patricia Moll in collaboration with the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL. In this tutorial we describe how to download the high accuracy elevation model ‘swissALTI3D’ with the help of the ‘Swiss Geo Downloader’ and how to use it for digital planning of a cable line with the plugin ‘Seilaplan’. Please note that the tutorial language is German!
