Investigating Geophysical Unrest at Sierra Negra (NERC Grant NE/S002685/1)

The Investigating Geophysical Unrest at Sierra NegrA (IGUANA) experiment was designed to monitor seismic activity associated with magmatic unrest at Sierra Negra volcano, Galapagos Islands,...

Ab initio Molecular Dynamics Trajectories for Hydrous Silicate Melts (NERC Grant NE/P002951/1)

Ab initio trajectories for the equilibrated MgO-SiO2-H2O melts at T = 1800 K and 3000 K are provided as "XDATCAR" files output directly from VASP for each simulation interval. Corresponding stress...

Mechanical and physical properties of decane-saturated Purbeck Limestone (NERC Grant NE/K009656/1)

These data contain time series of stress, strain, confining pressure, pore pressure, pore volume, permeability and elastic wave velocities of samples of Purbeck Limestone deformed under hydrostatic...

Topography, orthoimagery, topographic change, predicted hydraulic flow, and bedload transport rates of the Bislak River, the Philippines

For the Bislak River, the Philippines, this dataset contains: (i) topography and orthoimagery in 2019 and 2020; (ii) Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of Difference; (iii) predicted depth, velocity...

Data accompanying ‘Microstructural controls on thermal crack damage and the presence of a temperature-memory effect during cyclic thermal stressing of rocks’ submitted for publication in Geophysical Research Letters (NERC Grant NE/N002938/1)

Acoustic emissions (AE) and ultrasonic wave velocity data recorded during a series of high temperature thermal cracking experiments by Daoud et al., in the Rock and Ice Physics Laboratory of the...

Available Water Capacity, Scotland WMS

The proportion of water held in the soil at field capacity (5KPa) and at the permanent wilting point (1500kPa) was calculated for each soil horizon of each soil taxonomic unit (soil series)...

Micromechanics of shear failure in a porous rock: a combined dataset of high-resolution time-resolved 3D x-ray micro-tomography volumes and local 3D strain fields with contemporaneous acoustic emissions and ultrasonic velocity survey waveforms

This dataset shows both the micro-scale mechanisms and acoustic response involved in shear failure of a deforming porous rock. To our knowledge, this is the first such dataset to combine...

Brine-CO2 flow-through test in synthetic sandstone with oblique fractures

NERC grant NE/R013535/1. Here we present the dataset collected during a brine-CO2 flow-through test using a synthetic sandstone with oblique fractures, performed under realistic reservoir...

Mechanical response of anisotropic rocks under hydraulic fracture conditions: new experimental insights (NERC grant NE/L009110/1)

Text data capturing pore fluid pressures (upstream and downstream), axial stress, axial and radial displacement were conditioned and logged by a high-speed data acquisition unit (NI-DAQ 6341)...

Example Elastic Calculations for ElasT Toolkit (NERC Grant NE/M000125/1)

Elastic constants were calculated by using the stress-strain method and density functional theory for crystals of different symmetry. A toolkit was developed to facilitate the input preparation and...

Scaling of Fluid Behaviour Associated with Flow Through Complex Geological Structures

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. This project is designed to integrate geological structural characterisation of fault zones with numerical modelling of flow behaviour at different scales. We will...

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...

Rheology of three-phase suspensions (NERC grant NE/K500999/1)

The data consists of a spreadsheet containing rheology data for 39 samples of syrup, containing air bubbles and/or spherical glass particles. These data were used by Truby et al. (2014) to support...

Scaling Properties of Fluid Flow in Fractured Rocks

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. This proposal is to test the hypothesis that secondary (crack) porosity can be treated as a scaling problem in both fracture and fluid percolation theory. This will...

Health behaviours JSNA 2015 - survey data by district

In Lancashire there was limited information about the extent to which people engaged in health-compromising and health-enabling behaviours. To address this a project was commissioned to look at...
