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...

How does the Earth's crust grow at divergent plate boundaries? A unique opportunity in Afar, Ethiopia. [SEISMOLOGY SUB REPORT] (University of Leeds)

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. The African continent is slowly splitting apart along the East African rift valley, a 3000 km-long series of deep basins and flanking mountain ranges. This process...

Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) project

A dataset providing information of the vehicle types and counts in several locations in Leeds.  Purpose of the project ---------------------- The aim of this work was to examine the...

IODP Expedition 362 Sumatra Seismogenesis, Co-Chief activities and deformation structures of the subducting oceanic plate, fault and stratigraphic data from seismic reflection data interpretation (NERC Grant NE/P012817/1)

Interpretations of fault positions, geometries and displacements, and seismic stratigraphic horizons. These are provided in the form of Seismic fault and horizon data as ‘Charisma fault sticks’ and...

Flood risk management

The city council now has responsibilities to prepare, predict and manage flood risk in the city, following the Flood and Water Management Act 2010 making us a lead local flood authority. Flooding...

What drives and resists plate sinking through the transition zone? (NERC grant NE/J008028/1)

Broadband data collected at the equatorial Mid-Atlantic Ridge from March 2016 to March 2017. From the Grant abstract: We will systematically image the entire length of an oceanic plate, from its...

Triaxial compressive strength data of tests conducted at elevated temperature on hydrothermalised basalt samples from Osa Peninsula (Costa Rica) and oceanic crust basalt from Cocos Plate

This dataset contains raw (clean but not interpreted) triaxial compressive strength data of tests conductive at elevated pressure and temperature as outlined in "Vannucchi, P., Clarke, A., de...

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...

Reservoir Flood Extents - Wet Day (National)

This data shows the individual flood extents for all large raised reservoirs in the event that they were to fail and release the water held on a “wet day” when local rivers had already overflowed...
