Water bodies impacted by pollution from abandoned metal mines

List of water bodies (rivers) with significant failures of environmental quality standards for metals (cadmium, lead, nickel, copper, zinc and/or iron) caused by abandoned metal mines in England....

Metal Speciation And Bioavailability For Risk Assessment And Remediation.

The full title of this project is" Studies into metal speciation and bioavailability to assist risk assessment and remediation of brownfield sites in urban areas" and is funded by NERC under the...

Image and numerical data detailing interactions between metal reducing bacteria and metals (NERC grant NE/J024732/1)

These data show images recorded using a variety of methods of a model system of bacterial metal reduction. In all cases the bacteria grew from a pure culture of Geobacter sulfurreducens, and grew...

Soil metals data 1998 [Countryside Survey]

This dataset consists of metal concentrations measured from soils sampled across Great Britain in 1998. The Countryside Survey is a unique study or 'audit' of the natural resources of the UK's...

Soil metals data 2007 [Countryside Survey]

This dataset consists of metal concentrations (aluminium, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, selenium, titanium and zinc) measured from soils sampled...

Trace metals in soils in the West Bristol (Avonmouth) area

Concentrations of trace metals in soils from a grid of sites located around a disused (since 2003) smelting works in the Avonmouth, UK, area. The soil samples were collected on 4th and 5th October...
