This study builds on the detailed empirical research of the three investigators, who have been collaborating on researching the Hong Kong linguistic situation since the early 1980s. This research utilises social survey methodology to investigate which languages are used within the community. In more technical terms, this has involved carrying out ‘sociolinguistic surveys’ (surveys of languages in society) to investigate which languages are learnt, and which are used, by whom to whom, across a range...

This is the dataset for our research on assessing CO2 emissions from Chinese inland waters, including streams, rivers, lakes and reservoirs. The dataset includes three parts, including Part 1: Lakes and Reservoirs_1980s, Part 2: CO2 Dataset_2010s, and Part 3: Water chemistry records. Detailed information on these data can be found from the 'README' text file.

Data set for Hemraj et al published in OMBAR. The data has been used in a meta-analysis of the effects of ocean acidification and warming on the response of copepods.Meta-analysis title: Species’ distribution and evolutionary history influence the responses of marine copepods to climate change: a global meta-analysis.
The data has been collected from multiple publications and merged together to be analysed. Major copepod traits investigated are egg production, egg hatching success, copepod feeding rates, survival...

Future ocean CO2 and temperatures are predicted to increase primary productivity across tropical marine habitats, potentially driving a shift towards algal-dominated systems. However, increased consumption of algae by benthic grazers could potentially counter this shift. Yet, the response of different grazer species to future conditions will be moderated by their physiologies, meaning that they may not be functional equivalents. Here, we experimentally assessed the physiological response of key grazers—the sea urchin Heliocidaris crassispina and 2...

These data are generated in the lab and are about the erosion of an unsaturated soil bed by collisional flow.The data uploaded include:(1) Erosion profile - The erosion depth measured by using erosion columns and the calculated erosion rate for each test;(2) Soil bed shear strength - The data compulsory for estimating the shear strength of the unsaturated soil bed;(3) Flow-depth& velocity - Time series data about the flow depth (measured by an ultrasonic sensor)...

The experiments include genome editing, Sanger and RNA sequencing, in vitro functional assays, qPCR and western blotting.

Increasing evidence shows nonrestorative sleep (NRS) is a symptom of sleep, health, or psychiatric problem. It has been frequently reported in people with physical and psychological health issues but may not co-morbid with other sleep disorders. Around 8% of Hong Kong Chinese adults experienced NRS. However, there had been no standardized instrument for measuring NRS in Chinese populations, and the associated factors and potential impact have not been well studied. Therefore, this study aimed to...
