Hydrogeological map of the UK and Isle of Man

The map shows the potential for the rocks to supply groundwater and the type of groundwater flow within the rocks. The dataset reattributes polygons in the Digital Geological Map Data of Great...

Legacy BGS geothermal models: depth to the top Sherwood Sandstone Group in the Permo-Triassic Cheshire, Worcester, Wessex and East Yorkshire-Lincolnshire basins

This vector contour dataset represents the modelled depth in meters to the top Sherwood Sandstone Group (SSG) in the Permo-Triassic Cheshire, Wessex, Worcester and East Yorkshire-Lincolnshire...

A Deep Seismic Study of the Amazon Cone: Implications for the Strength of the Extended Continental Lithosphere - Discovery Cruise 275

Marine geophysical survey of the NE BRazil and French Guiana continental margin onboard RRS Discovery (D275). The Amazon Cone is a deep-sea fan system that developed on a continental margin...

Soil chemistry Scotland (version 3)

This dataset has now been superseded, please see the Estimated Ambient Background Soil Chemistry Scotland dataset. The BGS digital soil chemistry data indicates the estimated geometric mean...

Soil moisture data obtained from prototype neutron probes at a rain-fed field site, Goias state, Brazil, 2023

This dataset contains daily soil moisture estimates measured using prototype cosmic ray neutron sensors. The sensors were deployed in a rain-fed site in the state of Goias, Brazil. Volumetric water...

BGS GeoIndex - Hydrogeology data theme (OGC WxS INSPIRE)

The hydrogeological map indicates aquifer potential in generalised terms using a threefold division of geological formations: those in which intergranular flow in the saturated zone is dominant,...

Overland Flow Pathways

The Most Probable Overland Flow Pathway dataset is a polyline GIS vector dataset that describes the likely flow routes of water along with potential accumulations of diffuse pollution and soil...

R code to reproduce analyses of aboveground carbon stocks and associated plant diversity in fragmented and continuous forest sites in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, 2017

Contaminated Land (Confirmed) - Scotland

Land is legally defined as 'contaminated' where substances are causing or could cause significant harm to people, property or protected species as well as causing significant pollution to surface...

QICS Data: Effect of a controlled sub-seabed release of CO2 on the biogeochemistry of shallow marine sediments, pore waters, and the overlying water (2012-2013)

The potential for leakage of CO2 from a storage reservoir into the overlying marine sediments and into the water column and the impacts on benthic ecosystems are major challenges The potential for...

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...
