    Data on the thermal properties of soil and its moisture content
    (2018) Oyeyemi KD; Sanuade OA; Oladunjoye MA; Aizebeokhai AP; Olaojo AA; Fatoba JO; Olofinnade OM; Ayara WA; Oladapo O
    The dataset contains thermal properties of soil such as thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, temperature and specific heat capacity in an agricultural farm within the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. The data were acquired in forty (40) sampling points using thermal analyzer called KD-2 Pro. Soil samples taken at these sampling points were analyzed in the laboratory for their moisture content following the standard reference of American Association of State Highway and Transport Officials (AASHTO) T265. The data were acquired within the first and second weeks in the month of April, 2012. Statistical analyses were performed on the data set to understand the data. The data is made available publicly because thermal properties of soils have significant role in understanding the water retention capacity of soil and could be helpful for proper irrigation water management.

    Dataset on ground radiometric survey in part of the Eastern Dahomey Basin, SW Nigeria
    (2017) Oyeyemi KD; Aizebeokhai AP; Olofinnade OM
    The dataset for this article contains the measured activity concentration of radionuclides and gamma-radiation dose rate obtained from the radiometric survey in Ota, Ado-Odo Local Government Area, Ogun State, Nigeria. The data were manually collected in fifty (50) locations using the Super SPEC RS-125 spectrometer for about three (3) weeks in January, 2017. The descriptive statistical analysis of the data were equally explored for possible statistical relationships. The field dataset is made available publicly for further extended analyses that can provide insights into the safety status of the study area from radiological health concerns. The dataset could also serve as a significant baseline radiometric data for future epidemiology researches and monitoring initiative in Ota and its environs.
