QICS Paper: Impact and recovery of pH in marine sediments subject to a temporary carbon dioxide leak

A possible effect of a carbon dioxide leak from an industrial sub-sea floor storage facility, utilised for Carbon Capture and Storage, is that escaping carbon dioxide gas will dissolve in sediment...

Level of CO2 emissions from council buildings and operations (tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent)

Level of CO2 emissions from council buildings and operations (tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent)

Soil pyrogenic and organic carbon data in intact forest permanent plots across the Amazon Basin, 2015-2019

This dataset contains measurements of soil pyrogenic carbon, ratio of %PyC to %Bulk Carbon and organic carbon, which were collected in a soil fertility gradient in the Amazon Basin. All samples...

Low Carbon Building Programme phase 2 data run by Buildings Research Establishment

The LCBP-2 database is the main operating tool for the Low Carbon Buildings Programme Phase-2. Operations are essentially electronic and applications, evaluation, due diligence, issuance of Grant...

QICS Paper: Detection and impacts of leakage from sub-seafloor deep geological carbon dioxide storage

Fossil fuel power generation and other industrial emissions of carbon dioxide are a threat to global climate1, yet many economies will remain reliant on these technologies for several decades....

Carbon dioxide flux and isotopic composition from sedimentary rock weathering, Waiapu River catchment, New Zealand

These data were collected to study oxidative weathering processes in the Waiapu River catchment, New Zealand, with potential carbon release sourced from the oxidation of petrogenic organic carbon...

Tree carbon accumulation among habitats with varying levels of ash dieback, Wytham Woods, Oxfordshire, UK, 2021-2022

The data represent the growth rates and carbon accumulation among different tree species. Tree censuses were conducted in November 2020, September 2021, and September 2022. Carbon accumulation data...

NERC Project: QICS - Quantifying and monitoring environmental impacts of geological carbon storage (2010 - 2014)

QICS (Quantifying and monitoring environmental impacts of geological carbon storage) was a program funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), with support from the Scottish...

Navigating the Transition: A Cost and Skills Analysis for Net Zero Carbon by 2030 in London's Further Education Colleges

The Mayor of London is committed to reducing emissions and addressing the climate emergency. As part of this, the Mayor is driving forward an ambitious plan to make the city Net Zero-Carbon by 2030...

Carbon Emissions Reduction Target (CERT) data at regional, local authority and Parliamentary Constituency level

This data provides a geographic distribution of professionally installed measures - currently cavity wall and loft insulation - claimed under the Carbon Emissions Reduction Target (CERT) scheme....

This report give detailed results, conclusions and recommendations of the Joule II project CT92-0031. 'The Underground Disposal of Carbon Dioxide'. A summary of the results of the project is given...

Model output for soil carbon and nitrogen turnover in agricultural sites in the Red Soil region of China

Summary output data (including soil organic carbon concentration, nitrogen, available water and carbon dioxide) from simulations of soil in a small agricultural catchment (Sunjia) in Southeast...

Carbon dioxide flux and isotopic composition from sedimentary rock weathering, Draix-Bleone Critical Zone Observatory, France

The measurements and data were obtained to study the release of carbon dioxide during the chemical weathering of sedimentary rocks, and how these CO2 fluxes were related to environmental parameters...

Bulk carbonate stable isotope compositions and foraminifera-based results and relative age model of DSDP Site 401 (NERC grant NE/H017518/1)

Geochemical and isotopic data presented here cover the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (~56 Ma ago) and were produced to assess the degree of carbon cycle perturbations, ocean acidification and...

Topsoil carbon concentration estimates from the Countryside Survey of Great Britain, 2007 using a generalized additive model

This dataset presents modelled estimates of soil carbon concentration (g kg-1) at 1km2 resolution across Great Britain. A Generalized Additive Model approach was used with Countryside Survey soil...
