Title

Gas concentration, methane stable isotopes, and noble gas data of groundwater and deep gas samples from the Vale of Pickering, Yorkshire (NERC Grant NE/R018049/1)

Abstract

Groundwater and gas samples collected from sites in the Vale of Pickering and analysed for major gas concentrations, methane stable isotopes, and noble gas compositions.

Lineage

Gas and groundwater samples were collected in refrigeration grade 10mm diameter copper tubing approximately 50cm long, connected either to the well heads by a regulator and high-pressure hosing or to the groundwater pump outflow hose.Copper tubes were then sealed by stainless steel clamps at each end to form a cold weld, helium leak tight seal. Geochemical analysis of one set of gas samples was undertaken at Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre (SUERC) and consisted of bulk concentration and δ13CCH4 and δD stable isotope analyses. One set of groundwater samples were analysed for δ13CCH4 values at the University of Calgary isotope lab, with a full set of groundwater and gas samples analysed for major and noble gas compositions at the Ohio State University WHEEL laboratory.
