The Environmental Information Data Centre (EIDC) is part of the Natural Environment Research Council's (NERC) Environmental Data Service and is hosted by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH). We manage nationally-important datasets concerned with the terrestrial and freshwater sciences.

Our staff help researchers in ensuring that the data they produce are curated appropriately for the long-term, guaranteeing their security, accessibility and re-usability for the user community.

The Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) runs the UK's national data centre for atmospheric and earth observation research, hosting Petabytes of climate model, atmospheric observations and satellite data. 

The CEDA Archive forms part of NERC's Environmental Data Service (EDS) - a network of data centres covering all aspects of environmental science. The EDS provides a focal point for NERC's scientific data and information. We work with the other data centres to ensure that...

Research Data Scotland will provide a service for accessing public sector datasets that have the potential to save money time and lives.

It will offer safe, secure and cost effective access to data for research, innovation and investment by enabling its users to deliver insight and understanding that will help create a more successful country through increased wellbeing, sustainable and inclusive economic growth, and improving the health of the nation.

We will work collaboratively with...

New 'omic' technologies have transformed biology by allowing scientists to read genomes (genomics) and to measure the amount of proteins (proteomics) or other chemicals (metabolomics) within living cells and organisms. Tiny amounts of DNA can be collected from the environment (environmental DNA, eDNA) to measure biodiversity and monitor the health of our soils, rivers and seas. This creates a tremendous opportunity to understand the diversity of different individuals and species within the...

The Natural Environment Research Council  (NERC) Environmental Data Service (EDS) provides a focal point for NERC's scientific data and information.   The EDS consists of a network of environmental data centres.  These centres hold data covering all aspects of environmental science, gathered from environmental scientists working in the UK and around the world. The EDS are responsible for maintaining environmental data and making them available to all users, not just NERC researchers but others...

Viper is the University of Hull’s first institutional High Performance Computer (HPC). Within the university sector, Viper is one of the leading HPC resources. Our mission is to be recognised as a leader and a centre of excellence in the provision of quality HPC services and support. The University of Hull is committed to research excellence and Viper is key for meeting the ever-growing demands of the University research community. Viper is based on technically advanced and innovative systems...

ARCHER is the UK National Supercomputing Service. It allows researchers to run calculations and simulations that require a large number of processing cores working in parallel. The computer demands for such simulations far exceed the computer power typically available to an institution like ours (e.g. a local cluster). ARCHER allows us to run ocean and coupled ocean-atmosphere models that are at the cutting edge of the field. Generally, facilities like ARCHER enable the UK to be (and to remain)...

The Archives Hub brings together descriptions of thousands of the UK’s archive collections. Representing over 370 institutions across the country, it is an effective way to discover unique and often little-known sources to support research. New descriptions are added every week, often representing collections being made available for the first time. Researchers can use the Hub to instantly scan the archival landscape and bring together diverse sources held in repositories across the country. The...
