Experimental mechanical data for single crystal shear experiments (NERC grant NE/M000087/1)

Experimental mechanical data for single crystal shear experiments. Grant abstract: In 2011, NERC began a scoping exercise to develop a research programme based around deep Earth controls on the...

The Dalradian 'Snowball Earth' - Use of Stable Isotopes to Correlate Glacial Events and Neoproterozoic Stratigraphy of Scotland and Ireland

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - Data archived in BGS Digital Archive. The 'snowball Earth' theory has been the subject of widespread media attention, particularly its lively defence by key proponent, Prof....

Dyke-induced fault and pit crater measurements and predicted dyke properties offshore NW Australia (NERC Grant NNE/R014086/1)

There are two components to this dataset: (1) fault analyses used to estimate underlying dyke properties, imaged in 3D seismic reflection data; and (2) dimension measurements and calculations of...

Evolutionary rise of deep-rooting forests and enhanced chemical weathering: Quantitative investigations into the current paradigm (NERC grant NE/J007897/1)

The co-evolution and geographical spread of trees and deep-rooting systems is widely proposed to represent the 'Devonian engine' of global change that drove the weathering of soil minerals and...
