- Statement
- The study site (circa 0.4 km2 in area) was located in a managed coniferous forestry plantation (c. 25 km2) in north-west England (NGR 3325 4917). It was largely a mixture of established coniferous plantation with an understory of predominantly grass and sedge species. Samples (bee, earthworm, sitka spruce, wood mouse, purple moor grass and soil) were collected from this area with the exception of Capreolus capreolus (Roe deer) which were collected from within the forest at distances of less than 2 km to the north and east of the main study site. Samples were collected between August 2010 and February 2011. The locations of all sampling sites were recorded using a hand held GPS. Biota and associated soils samples were analysed for stable element by ICP-MS by the Food and Environment Research Agency using methods accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS). Sub samples were analysed to determine their C and N concentrations and samples with a higher mass were also analysed for gamma emitting radionuclides by CEH using a method also accredited by UKAS. The Percentage Loss on Ignition (LOI) and pH was also determined in the soil samples. For full details relating to each sample type collected in this study, 'please refer to the Online Resource: Supporting Documentation 'Materials and Methods_ICRP_RAP'.
