Download the terrestrial biodiversity surveillance schemes database

The database contains information on over 70 schemes listed in alphabetical order. This database uses the term scheme to mean any programme of sampling activity. The database is based on the biodiversity schemes information collected by the 2006 ADAS review of environmental monitoring done for the Environmental Research Funders Forum, which is now available as Environment Research Funders' Forum UK Environmental Monitoring Database.

The information has subsequently been updated up to January 2008 by JNCC with input from scheme organisers.  The information added has been shared with ERFF, and JNCC is working with ERFF to enable scheme organisers to directly update the UK Environmental Monitoring Database as and when required in future. Use the following link for more information on the database.

Information held in the database is available for download as a spreadsheet. In the spreadsheet, each scheme is listed in a separate row containing 14 columns.  Use the following link for a key to the parameters in each column. The spreadsheet can be filtered in a number of ways.
