Terrestrial habitat, vegetation and soil data from Shetland, 1974

Terrestrial habitat, vegetation and soil data from a survey of Shetland, carried out in the summer of 1974 by the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology. Nearly 1000 x 200m2 plots were surveyed from...

Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) Core Scanning Dataset (NERC Grant NE/N018508/1)

A core scanning dataset from part of the Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) drill core that was drilled onshore in the Cardigan Bay Basin, Wales, UK. This core scan dataset was obtained using the Itrax XRF...

Development of synchrotron in-situ multianvil techniques and their application to the study of upper mantle mineral reactions

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. Multi anvil presses (MAPS) are used worldwide for high p/t work. The 'Walker cell' has made maps more accessible for earth sciences research. A Walker cell is...

BGS Photograph Collection

The official BGS photographic archive contains an estimated 300,000 photographs. The archive has been built up systematically since its founding in 1891 and is becoming a very popular educational...

Pressure effect on anelasticity of pyrope. (NERC grant NE/K002902/1)

Radiographic images of pyrope samples synthesised at pressures of 4-15 GPa, all collected at 2.5GPa and temperatures from 773 to 1573K. The samples are deformed sinusoidally at strains of up to 5...

Alkenone UK'37 data of sediment samples from Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) site 594 in the South Pacific

Alkenone abundances and resulting temperature reconstruction from sediment samples retrieved from DSDP Leg 90, Site 594, South Pacific. Sediments are dated from 3.4-3.0 Ma. The age of samples was...

UKCCSRC Call 2 Project: Process-performance indexed design of task-specific ionic liquids for post-combustion CO2 capture

Increased population and increased economic activity have one important thing in common: increased energy demand. More and more, concern is mounting surrounding the broader environmental impact...

UKCCSRC Call 2 Project: Quantifying Residual and Dissolution Trapping in the CO2CRC Otway Injection Site

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a promising means of directly lowering CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion. However, concerns about the possibility of CO2 leakage are contributing to slow...

Habitat point records from 1984-85 Harris lower Torridge estuary littoral survey

In common with all estuaries, that of the Torridge has a wide range of habitat types, ranging from fine, clean sand to pure mud with high organic content. Such diversity of habitats might be...
