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...

Green Belt in The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames

In United Kingdom town planning, the green belt is a policy for controlling urban growth. The idea is for a ring of countryside where urbanisation will be resisted for the foreseeable future,...

Traits data for the butterflies and macro-moths of Great Britain and Ireland, 2024

Here, we present a comprehensive traits database for the butterflies and macro-moths of Great Britain and Ireland. The database covers 968 species in 21 families. Ecological traits fall into four...

Scottish Carbon Capture & Storage (SCCS)

SCCS is the largest Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) research group in the UK. Our internationally renowned researchers provide connected strength across the full CCS chain. With our unique...

Bacterial community structure and soil process data from a sewage sludge amended upland grassland soil experiment, 2000 [NERC Soil Biodiversity Programme]

This set of data comprises temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis (TTGE) and soil process measurements, used to analyse the effects of perturbations (sludge and/or lime application) on the...

Determination of the Rupture History of Large Earthquakes from Analysis of Broad Band Seismograms

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. A complete picture of the processes occurring on seismically active faults is the essential prerequisite for the reliable assessment and mitigation of earthquake...
