Distant access to an ecological field experiment

Description

As lecturers running ecology and conservation courses from first year undergraduate to masters, we are aware that access to real datasets and large-scale experiments is often difficult. Consequently, when we had the opportunity to begin a long term study we decided to share our results via the web. We hope that colleagues will find the material useful for their teaching. We are also aware that the data may be of value for some disabled students. We have been careful to ensure that, as far as possible, the web material should be accessible using devices such as screen readers, for example all of the project web pages have been validated by W3C markup validation service.
