In November 2014, 3,674 Londoners took part in the first London Survey run by Talk London, to tell us what they thought of the city and their neighbourhood.The London Survey enables us to:• Assess...

QICS Paper Gas migration pathways, controlling mechanisms and changes in sediment acoustic properties observed in a controlled sub-seabed CO2 release experiment

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a key technology to potentially mitigate global warming by reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from industrial facilities and power generation that escape...

QICS Paper: Local perceptions of the QICS experimental offshore CO2 release: Results from social science research

This paper explores the social dimensions of an experimental release of carbon dioxide (CO2) carried out in Ardmucknish Bay, Argyll, United Kingdom. The experiment, which aimed to understand...

Major and trace element analysis of Precambrian and Paleozoic lacustrine mudrocks

This dataset contains geochemical measurements which quantify the major and trace element concentrations of Precambrian (Proterozoic) and Paleozoic (541–251 Mya) mudstones. Sampled mudstones are...

Lithium isotope ratios of sampled Precambrian and Paleozoic Mudrocks

Geochemical measurements which quantify the lithium isotope ratios (d7Li) of Paleozoic (541–251 Mya) mudstones. Samples were obtained from various field locations across Scotland, Wales, England...

Images and laser ablation ICPMS data for Fe-Ni-Cu sulfides from Cabo Ortegal, northern Spain (NERC Grant NE/P017312/1)

Samples are dunites, harzburgites and pyroxenites with variable proportions of chromite from the Cabo Ortegal collection of the late Prof Hazel Prichard, that is held at Cardiff University. Data...

QICS Paper: The use of scientific diving in support of a novel carbon dioxide release experiment

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a way of possibly reducing impacts from fossil fuel emissions by injecting large volumes of carbon dioxide into appropriate geological formations. Some of the...

Evaluation of Regional Slope Stability of the European Continental Margin

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. There is a great deal of uncertainty as to the levels of stability of slope components of the European margin, other than localised detailed surveys completed using...

GlaciStore: full proposal to IODP, UK CCS RC, Call 1 (1 April 2015)

Full proposal for scientific drilling (852-CPP) 'GlaciStore: Understanding Late Cenozoic glaciation and basin processes for the development of secure large-scale offshore CO2 storage (North Sea)',...

Wessex Archaeology (WSX) Geophysical Survey WESSEX1: (11/Jun/2003 to 26/Jun/2003)

Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by English Heritage to undertake a project entitled ‘Wrecks on the Seabed: Assessment, Evaluation and Recording’. The project was supported by that part of the...

Property Subsidence Assessment dataset

The property subsidence assessment dataset provides an understanding of the shrink-swell hazard at both the individual property and/or postcode level for England and Wales. It builds upon the BGS...

Hidden crisis project: in-depth qualitative social science survey of community water management arrangements in Ethiopia, Malawi, and Uganda 2017-2018 (NERC grant NE/M008606/1)

In developing countries, the dominant model for managing rural water supplies is a community-level association or committee. Although a relative paucity of evidence exists to support this model, it...

UK trade quotas

This dataset shows the quotas available in the UK Tariff along with their current or final balances, updated daily. It lists each quota period for each six-digit quota order number with the...

Stratigraphic and structural interpretation of the released commercial "Bowland-12" 3D Seismic reflection survey data acquired in 2012, Lancashire UK

Interpretation data pack from the 3D seismic reflection survey for the commercial "Bowland-12" 3D seismic reflection survey. This survey covers the Fylde region of Lancashire west of Blackpool and...

Historic reconstructions of daily groundwater levels for eight boreholes in Burkina Faso (NERC Grant NE/M008827/1)

This dataset consists of reconstructions of daily groundwater levels for eight boreholes in Burkina Faso. Data for each borehole is provided in an individual csv file, with reconstructed...

Dyke-induced fault and pit crater measurements and predicted dyke properties offshore NW Australia (NERC Grant NNE/R014086/1)

There are two components to this dataset: (1) fault analyses used to estimate underlying dyke properties, imaged in 3D seismic reflection data; and (2) dimension measurements and calculations of...

Marine Pressures-Activities Database (PAD) v1.5

Coastal and marine ecosystems are subject to a number of human-induced pressures associated with a variety of marine activities. As such it is important to understand the links between human...

Historic Environment Records - Scotland

HERs (Historic Environment Records) developed out of SMRs (Sites and Monuments Records). SMRs were established from the 1960s onwards in response to the loss of the archaeological resource through...

Origin of the Avian Respiratory System: A CT-Study of Postcranial Pneumaticity in Basal Archosaurs

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. The incredible success of living birds (>9000 species) results, in part, from their unique respiratory system, which underpins the key evolutionary innovations of...

Health Inequalities Strategy Indicators

Health inequalities are the differences in health and wellbeing, risk or outcomes, between different groups of people. Tackling health inequalities requires knowledge about the factors affecting...
