Area VII 120mm Square Mesh Panel Evaluation 2015/16 - Fisheries Science Partnership

A trial undertaken to evaluate the performance of a 120mm square mesh panel (SMP) recently regulated in the Celtic Sea for TR1 and TR2 otter trawlers. The use of this gear modification has been...

Beach replenishment and derived archaeological material

This project takes the form of a desk-based archaeological assessment to examine the relationship between the historic environment and beach replenishment schemes, by exploring the deposition of...

High resolution sonar for the archaeological investigation of marine aggregate deposits

The High resolution sonar for the archaeological investigation of marine aggregate deposits project was undertaken by the University of Southampton and funded through the English Heritage disbursed...

Peatland condition and change detection from InSAR-derived surface motion time series (RR1356)

The data is derived from Sentinel-1 radar data and the point data spacing is related to the spatial resolution of the imagery, ~20 m. The condition data displays one of 3 peatland condition classes...

England's Shipping

England's Shipping was a pioneering project that researched ways of mapping evidence of historic shipping in UK waters in order to improve the incorporation of such evidence into the assessment of...

Spatial masks for calcareous, coastal, upland and lowland heath landscapes in England [Key Habitats 1992-93]

This dataset contains existing and potential areas of habitats associated with calcareous, coastal, upland and lowland heath landscapes. The dataset was initially created to provide a sampling...

EU Project: SiteChar - Characterisation of European CO2 storage

The objective of the EU SiteChar Project was to facilitate the implementation of CO2 geological storage in Europe by developing a methodology for the assessment of potential storage sites and the...

UKCP09 Climate projections and clay shrink-swell suceptibility Premium

Shrink-swell is recognised as the most significant geohazard across Great Britain. This dataset identifies areas of shrink-swell hazard with increased potential due to changing climatic conditions...

Legacy BGS geothermal models: depth to the base Sherwood Sandstone Group in the Permo-Triassic Cheshire and Worcester basins

This vector contour dataset represents the modelled depth in meters to the base Sherwood Sandstone Group (SSG) in the Permo-Triassic Cheshire and Worcester basins, considered for their hot...

Joule II Project Report: The underground disposal of carbon dioxide : Final Report

The purpose of Joule II Project Number CT92-0031 'The Underground Disposal of Carbon Dioxide' was to examine the potential for reducing CO2 emissions to the Earth's atmosphere from fossil fuel...

Legacy BGS geothermal models: isopach map for the Sherwood Sandstone Group in the Permo-Triassic Cheshire, Worcester, Wessex and East Yorkshire-Lincolnshire basins

This dataset represents the modelled thickness in metres of the Sherwood Sandstone Group (SSG) in the main Permo-Triassic Cheshire, Wessex, Worcester and East Yorkshire-Lincolnshire basins,...

Groundwater vulnerability data for England

The Environment Agency has updated its groundwater vulnerability map to reflect improvements in data mapping, modelling capability and understanding of the factors affecting vulnerability. Two new...

UKCP09 Climate projections and clay shrink-swell susceptibility

Shrink-swell is recognised as the most significant geohazard across Great Britain. This dataset identifies areas of shrink-swell hazard with increased potential due to changing climatic conditions...

Modelled depth and thermal history for sediments offshore Sumatra (NERC grant NE/P012140/1)

The thermal state of marine sediments controls a range of potential dehydration reactions as sediments are subducted. In thick sediment sections it is possible that reactions that would normally...

A Deep Seismic Study of the Amazon Cone: Implications for the Strength of the Extended Continental Lithosphere

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. The Amazon Cone is a deep-sea fan system that developed on a continental margin, North East Brazil and French Guiana, approximately 90-100 Myr following a rifting...

Nurdle characteristics with associated bacterial concentrations and virulence of Klebsiella isolates from Scottish beaches, 2022

This dataset holds realistic environmental concentrations of potential pathogens colonising microplastic beads (nurdles) collected from ten Scottish beaches. Observed measures include...

GeoSure Basic

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...

Thamesmead and Abbey Wood Opportunity Area documents

The Thamesmead and Abbey Wood Opportunity Area is one of the largest regeneration areas in London. Prepared jointly by the Mayor of London’s office (Greater London Authority, GLA), Transport for...

Novel Flow and Transport Models for Systems Exhibiting Non-Integer Flow Dimensions

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. Modelling of flow and transport in fractured rock is severely restricted due to the need to represent fractures over a wide range of scales, which demands...

Map based index (GeoIndex) urban geochemical reports

This layer displays the urban areas for which there is an "urban geochemical mapping" report. An integral part of the G-BASE (Geochemical Baseline Survey of the Environment) mapping programme is to...
