Ptychotomography of Bishop Tuff Zircons (NERC Grant NE/P002498/1)

Nanoscopic (50 < size < 150 nm) magnetic particles embedded within the unaltered interior of mineral crystals like zircons (ZrSiO 4 ) make ideal candidates to record the information about the...

Direct testing of forsterite bicrystals via in-situ micropillar experiments at 700 deg C (NERC Grant NE/S00162X/1)

The mechanics of olivine deformation play a key role in long-term planetary processes, including the response of the lithosphere to tectonic loading or the response of the solid Earth to tidal...

GeoSure ground stability data product version 8

BGS GeoSure identifies, at 1:50 000 scale, areas of susceptibility and considers the following specific hazard processes that can occur in Great Britain: 1. Shrink–Swell: Swelling clays change in...

Backscattered electron images of clinopyroxene-bearing ocean island basalts from Iceland and the Azores

Backscattered electron image (BSE) images of ocean island basalt samples from four volcanic systems in Iceland (Holuhraun, Skuggafjoll, Laki and Eyjafjallajokull) and two eruption sites on Pico...

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...

Noble gas solubility data for phlogopite (NERC grant NE/J013072/1)

This dataset consists of a spreadsheet of data and a series of photographs. A set of natural phlogopite crystals were exposed to varying partial pressures of a He-Ne-Ar gas mixture at 930-1030°C...

Data (ultrasonic, mechanical) and microstructures of shear failure in Lanhelin granite under upper crustal conditions (NERC Grant NE/M004716/1)

Data has been recorded during triaxial rock deformation experiments where Lanhelin granite samples were subjected to dynamic and half-controlled shear failure. The data consists of mechanical data...

BGS South West Approaches Study

A literature review of late and post Variscan basins in NW Europe has been carried out, and a fully referenced and extensive bibliography is presented. A review of literature on the rather long and...
