Experimental friction dataset for heterogeneous and homogeneous mixed quartz-clay fault gouge layers (NERC Grant NE/P002943/1)

The data are from a suite of friction experiments performed on simulated fault gouges comprised of clay-quartz mixtures, sheared in a direct-shear arrangement. Some experiments were performed on...

FRAME (Fine Resolution Atmospheric Multi-pollutant Exchange)

The FRAME model calculates the deposition of sulphur and nitrogen at both standard (5 km) and high (1 km) resolution across the UK. The results are used to calculate the exceedance of critical...

Example Elastic Calculations for ElasT Toolkit (NERC Grant NE/M000125/1)

Elastic constants were calculated by using the stress-strain method and density functional theory for crystals of different symmetry. A toolkit was developed to facilitate the input preparation and...

Digital Geological Map Data of Great Britain - 25k (DiGMapGB-25) version 2

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names. The scale of the data is 1:25 000 scale. Onshore coverage is partial and BGS has no intention to create a...

BGS Geology - 10k (DiGMapGB-10) version 2

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names. The scale of the data is 1:10 000 scale. Onshore coverage is partial with approximately 30% of England,...

Permeability Dataset for Great Britain (Merged)

The data comprises four GIS layers representing the permeability of geological deposits for Great Britain (bedrock, superficial, artificial and mass movement deposits). The permeability data has...

List of legacy waste deposits (including historical landfill sites) across England and Wales, ranked by environmental risk to the coastal environment under future climate scenarios

This dataset contains the output of a national-scale prioritisation exercise aimed at determining the risks posed by 30,310 legacy waste sites and historical landfill sites to the coastal...

Hourly micro-meteorological data from Climoor fieldsite in Clocaenog Forest

[THIS DATASET HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN]. This dataset contains hourly micro-meteorological data from the experimental plots at the Climoor field site in Clocaenog forest, NE Wales. It runs from 11/9/2008...

Thermal and microwave paleointensity data measured at the University of Liverpool on natural clinkers from Montana, USA, vitrified fort and volcanic material from Scotland, and volcanic material from the Yandiniling Dike Swarm, Australia

All paleointensity data gathered from the project at University of Liverpool. The data is divided into multiple four letter coded sections which refer to a specific locality and/or experiment type....

GSNI GeoIndex Superficial Aquifers

This map layer shows the distribution of superficial deposits, as mapped at 1:250 000 scale, which are considered to have the potential to store and transmit significant amounts of groundwater. The...

Polluted Troposphere TORCH2: Tropospheric ORganic CHemistry Experiment (TORCH2) Ground-based Atmospheric Components Measurements Collection from the Weybourne Atmospheric Observatory, Norfolk

The Polluted Troposphere Programme was a 5-year NERC thematic research programme which was centred upon the study of polluted boundary layer air and its transport to the free troposphere. The...
