Low Carbon Vans Survey

Survey of 400 van owners. Data collection ceased.

The impact of mineral dissolution on drainage relative permeability and residual trapping in two carbonate rocks

Carbon dioxide (CO2) injection into deep saline aquifers is governed by a number of physico-chemical processes including mineral dissolution and precipitation, multiphase fluid flow, and capillary...

QICS Paper: The use of scientific diving in support of a novel carbon dioxide release experiment

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a way of possibly reducing impacts from fossil fuel emissions by injecting large volumes of carbon dioxide into appropriate geological formations. Some of the...

A data product describing Carbon and nitrogen impacts of seaweed and mussel aquaculture estimated using life cycle impact assessment

Estimates of the global warming potential (GWP, carbon impact) and marine eutrophication potential (MEP, nitrogen impact) resulting from seaweed and mussel aquaculture. These data includes...

CO2GeoNet Paper: Carbonation of borehole seals: Comparing evidence from short-term laboratory experiments and long-term natural analogues

It is crucial that the engineered seals of boreholes in the vicinity of a deep storage facility remain effective for considerable timescales if the long-term geological containment of stored CO2 is...

Total carbon and nitrogen stocks across a land use gradient on Salisbury Plain in June 2014

This dataset contains carbon and nitrogen stock data from soils collected from Salisbury Plain, UK. The sites were selected to reflect the four main grassland management types on Salisbury Plain...

X-ray micro-tomography datasets of Ketton carbonate obtained at 5MPa and 323K - (a) Dry micro-core (b) Hydrochloric acid reacted micro-core

The datasets contains two sets of three dimensional images of Ketton carbonate core of size 5 mm in diameter and 11 mm in length scanned at 7.97µm voxel resolution using Versa XRM-500 X-ray...

Joule II Project Paper: An overview of the underground disposal of carbon dioxide

The underground disposal of industrial quantities of CO2 is entirely feasible. Cost is the main barrier to implementation. The preferred concept is disposal into porous and permeable reservoirs...

Aquatic carbon isotope composition in natural and restoration pools in blanket peatlands in Scotland and Northern Ireland, 2014-2015

The dataset contains the isotopic composition of aquatic carbon forms obtained from peatland pools across six locations in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Samples were collected from the surface of...

Carbon and nitrogen content in soils and vegetation from calcareous grassland, heathland and woodland sites in Dorset, 2017-2018

This dataset contains carbon and nitrogen data from soils and vegetation from 13 calcareous grassland, 13 heathland and 12 woodland sites within Dorset, UK. The sites were selected to represent a...

Neoproterozoic carbonate geochemistry data: Svalbard and Scotland (NERC grant NE/H004963/1)

The stratigraphic scope of the data is 1) the Polarisbreen Group of NE Svalbard (late Tonian to Ediacaran) and 2) top Appin and lower Argyll Groups, western Scotland (late Tonian to Cryogenian)....

High Carbon Stock stratification of the SAFE project site, Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, 2015 [HMTF]

This data set provides a spatial stratification of forest cover into discrete vegetation classes according to the High Carbon Stock (HCS) Approach. The data set covers the Stability of Altered...

Bulk density, carbon and nitrogen content in soil profiles from permafrost in subarctic Canada

This dataset consists of measurements of bulk density, carbon and nitrogen content in soil profiles from permafrost in subarctic Canada. Soil cores were sampled during early summer in 2013 and...

Joule II Project Paper: An overview of the Joule II project 'The underground disposal of carbon dioxide'

In January 1993, as part of the Joule II Non-nuclear Energy Research Programme, the European Commission initiated a two year study of the potential for the disposal of industrial quantifies of...

This poster on the UKCCSRC Call 1 project Mixed matrix membranes for post-combustion carbon capture was presented at the CSLF Call project poster reception, London, 27.06.16. Grant number:...

Dissolved polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the River Wyre (northwest England)

Data on concentrations of dissolved PAHs and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in 20 water samples collected from the River Wyre at five sites between Marshaw Wyre, one of the two headwaters of the...

Carbon concentrations in natural and restoration pools in blanket peatlands in Scotland, 2013-2015

[THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN]. Dataset contains water chemistry data (pH, conductivity, dissolved carbon, dissolved gases, absorbance) from natural and artificial/restoration peat pools in...
