Habitat point records from 1992 DWT Plym Estuary littoral survey

The first real noticeable outcome from observations of the estuary whilst sampling, is that a large percentage of the mud is made up of China Clay. This is present as a result of being emitted by...

Geohazard Assessment of Shrink Swell Behaviour of Deposits

**No longer exists - now part of GeoSure**An assessment of the potential for a geological deposit to shrink or swell with changes in moisture content. A characteristic usually of clays, mudstones...

Species point records from 1995 MNCR Thanet sublittoral survey

Sublittoral survey off the Thanet coast using detailed MNCR recording methods. The survey was aimed to establish the extent of the sublittoral reefs and biotopes present in the area. Survey sites...

Stoer Group and Sibley Group nitrogen geochemistry in red beds (NERC Grant NE/V010824/1)

Nitrogen abundances in red shales are shown to be suitable as a biosignature that may be applicable to red beds on Mars. The data set includes organic carbon and nitrogen abundances and isotopic...

16S rRNA Gene Sequencing of Filtered Groundwater from 8 Boreholes in Cambodia (NERC grant NE/P01304X/1)

This dataset represents the raw reads from sequencing the V4 hyper-variable region of the 16S rRNA gene on an Illumina MiSeq platform. The samples are filtered groundwater samples from 8 boreholes...

Habitat point records from 1995 MNCR Sarnau of Cardigan Bay sublittoral survey

Sublittoral survey of the boulder and cobble reefs in Cardigan Bay known as the Sarnau, including Sarn Badrig, Sarn-y-Bwch and the Cynfelyn Patches. Sediment plains of sand between the Sarnau was...

GeoSure Shrink Swell Deposits

The GeoSure data sets and reports from the British Geological Survey provide information about potential ground movement or subsidence in a helpful and user-friendly format. The reports can help...

GeoSure shrink swell deposits version 8

This dataset provides an assessment of the potential for a geological deposit to shrink and swell. Many soils contain clay minerals that absorb water when wet (making them swell), and lose water as...

Abundance, biomass and elemental composition (CNP) of consumers in the Hampshire Avon [Macronutrient Cycling]

The dataset contains measurements of the annual average abundance, biomass and elemental composition (C, N, P) of consumers (fish and invertebrates) in six rivers within sub-catchments of the...

Time series inorganic groundwater data for the Oju/Obi area of Eastern Nigeria from 1997 and 1998. Rainfall chloride time series data from selected rain gauges from 1997. Clay mineralogy data from selected boreholes in Oju and Obi.

Oju/Obi is a remote part of Eastern Nigeria. There are severe water shortages during the 4-5 month dry season. The hydrogeology of the area is complex, and groundwater is difficult to find. In an...

Shrink-swell hazard potential for Great Britain based on CHESS-SCAPE climate projections, from 2030s to 2070s. (PREMIUM version: 50m resolution)

This dataset identifies areas of shrink-swell hazard with increased potential due to changing climatic conditions based on climate variables from 3 CHESS-SCAPE Representative Concentration Pathway...

Hampshire Avon: soil temperature and water content data from three sub-catchments

The dataset contains measurements of soil temperature and volumetric water content from plots in agricultural grasslands in the Hampshire Avon catchment (UK) from late-2013 to September 2015....

Flow velocity transects collected seasonally at six tributaries of Hampshire River Avon from 2013 to 2014

The dataset contains high-resolution flow transects that were obtained from representative sites at six rivers within sub-catchments of contrasting geology (clay, greensand, chalk) of the Hampshire...

Radiocarbon dates of sediment slices from the MexiDrill core of Lake Chalco, Mexico (40-0 kcal BP) (NERC Grant NE/S009035/1)

The MexiDrill core was dated using a range of methods, including radiocarbon. Samples of sediment were pretreated (acid-only) at the 14CHRONO Centre according to established protocol, and measured...

A systematic review of common measurement methods of global soil protease activity between 1970-2020

The dataset contains global soil protease activities and common methodological parameters (i.e. fluorometric and colorimetric analysis) used to measure soil protease activity between 1970-2020. The...
