Research data and scientific software related to a study on statistical correlations between modelled atmospheric heavy metal deposition and respective accumulation in moss and natural surface soil for different natural landscapes in Norway. Data on cadmium, lead, and mercury were collected in 1995, 2000, 2005 and 2010 throughout Norway. The landscape information was derived from the Ecological Land Classification of Europe. Correlations between concentration and respective modelled deposition data were computed for each land class.
