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...

Population dynamics of evolving bacterial populations in liquid media, 2020

This data was collected from co-evolving bacterial populations containing Pseudomonas fluorescens strain SBW25 and a plasmid, pQBR57. The composition of the community was tracked using flow...

Biomolecular Achaeology of Ancient Tuberculosis in Britain and Europe

Tuberculosis (TB) is a reemerging infection that was also common in the past in Britain. Poverty, drug resistance, the HIV, and migration are key factors in its occurrence today. The disease can be...

Electron backscatter diffraction data and sample analysis from the Nusfjord Shear Zone, Lofoten, Norway (NERC Grant NE/P001548/1)

Field and microstructural analysis of pseudotachylytes formed at lower crustal depths and now lying exposed in the Flakstadøy Anorthosite, Lofoten, Norway. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD)...

Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) data of tests conducted on salt samples from the Northwich Halite Member

The dataset contains unconfined compressive strength data of salt samples collected from the Northwich Halite Member at the Winsford Mine in Cheshire, UK. Each sample was unconfined and deformed...

Concentrations and antibiotic resistance of faecal indicator organisms and human pathogens associated with sewage waste on Scottish beaches, 2021

The data includes concentrations of faecal indicator organisms isolated from the plastic waste and natural substrates found on Scottish beaches, as well as the antibiotic resistance of selected...

Deformation of Sandstone under Crustal Pressure and Temperature Conditions (NERC Grant NE/L002485/1)

Data generated at UCL on a conventional triaxial apparatus used to deform three different sandstones at room temperature and 150 °C. The data includes the raw mechanical data (time, load,...

Bacteroides phages recovered from human and animal faecal matrices in rural Kenya

This data describes the recovering and isolation processes of Bacteroides spp. strains from human and cattle faecal sources from rural areas in Siaya County (Kenya), and occurred between 7th and...

Deformation and acoustic emission of Neapolitan Yellow Tuff

These data represent a series of analyses exploring the seismic behaviours of low-cohesion volcanic sediments – in this case the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff - under varying strain rates. The data...
