GSNI GeoIndex Bedrock Aquifer

This map layer shows the classification of bedrock, as mapped at 1:250 000 scale, into aquifer categories. This classification was initially undertaken to support groundwater assessments undertaken...

In-situ rock deformation and micron-scale crack network evolution: a high-resolution time-resolved x-ray micro-tomography dataset (NERC Grant NE/R001693/1)

This collection comprises two time-series of 3D in-situ synchrotron x-ray microtomography (μCT) volumes showing two Ailsa Craig micro-granite samples (ACfresh02 and ACHT01) undergoing triaxial...

Testing the control of weathering on CO2 - Evidence from extreme climate events (NERC Grant NE/I020571/2)

Published papers for NERC grant NE/I020571/2. Grant award abstract: How does the Earth's climate recover from events of rapid and extreme global warming or cooling? Why have the huge fluctuations...

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Weekly Update

Dataset no longer updated: Due to changes in the collection and availability of data on COVID-19, this dataset is no longer updated. Latest information about COVID-19 is available via the UKHSA...

Chemical analysis data derived from NERC grant NE/I025573/1, When on Earth did modern plate tectonics begin?

Earth is a dynamic planet, for the simple reason that it is still cooling down from the heat of accretion and subsequent decay of radioactive elements. The main mechanism by which it loses heat is...

Geometry and Kinematics of continental breakup in the youthful Aden rift

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. One of the primary processes shaping Earth's surface is the stretching and eventual break-up of continents to create new ocean basins. The processes of stretching...
