Water Framework Directive (WFD) Surface Water Management Catchments Cycle 3

This is a polygon dataset showing Surface Water Management Catchments, which was created to meet the requirements of the Water Framework Directive (WFD). Management Catchments are larger than...

Annex I Sandbanks in the UK v2 (Public)

This dataset contains a shapefile that shows the potential and high confidence mapped extents of Annex I habitat 'Sandbank' within the boundaries of the UK continental shelf. 'Sandbank' here refers...

High-resolution global topographic index values

The topographic index is a hydrological quantity describing the propensity of the soil at landscape points to become saturated with water as a result of topographic position (i.e. not accounting...

Northern Ireland Inshore Marine Conservation Zones

This GIS layer describes the boundaries of 5 Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs); 4 were designated in December 2016, under the Marine Act (Northern Ireland) 2013 and Strangford Lough Marine Nature...

Soil water release curves and hydraulic conductivity measurements at four long-term grassland-to-woodland land use contrasts across England

This dataset contains soil water release curves and un-saturated hydraulic conductivity measurements from four long-term grassland-to-woodland land use contrasts across England between 2018 and...

Water, carbon and energy fluxes simulation for Great Britain using the JULES Land Surface Model and the Climate Hydrology and Ecology research Support System meteorology dataset (1961-2015) [CHESS-land]

The dataset contains daily and monthly surface water, energy and carbon fluxes, and state variables for Great Britain over the period between 1961 and 2015. The data was obtained from a 55 years...

Marine geotechnical data from around the UK (1975 onwards)

Results of geotechnical testing carried out, at various depth intervals, on shallow cores or boreholes collected by BGS from the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). The bulk of the data north of 56N are...

Predictive Seabed Sediments UK v1

The BGS Predictive Seabed Sediments UK v1 dataset includes digital maps of seabed sediment (SBS) composition across the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). The dataset includes one classified SBS map...

Engineering Properties: Bulking

This dataset is a characterisation of the soil and rocks and the potential bulking factor (likely excavated volume increases) at Formation (local to regional) level for Great Britain. The data is...

Chemical potentials of liquid iron mixtures at ICB conditions and of solid ferropericlase at CMB conditions (NERC grant NE/M000990/1)

This dataset contains VASP runs performed on several supercomputing services (ARCHER, Monsoon, Thomas and Grace in the UK; Eos in the USA) to calculate the chemical potentials of liquid iron...

Compressible ground (5km Hex-Grid) version 7

The 5km Hex GS Compressible Ground dataset shows a generalised view of the GeoSure Compressible Ground v7 dataset to a hexagonal grid resolution of 64.95km coverage area (side length of 5km). This...

Compressible ground dataset (5km Hex-Grid) version 8

The 5km Hex GS Compressible Ground dataset shows a generalised view of the GeoSure Compressible Ground v8 dataset to a hexagonal grid resolution of 64.95km coverage area (side length of 5km). This...

Legacy BGS geothermal models: theoretical potential 'identified resources' (recoverable heat) for the Sherwood Sandstone Gp in the Permo-Triassic Cheshire, Worcester, Wessex and East Yorkshire Lincolnshire Basins (Hot Sedimentary Aquifer Resources)

This vector contour dataset represents the distribution of the theoretical potential calculated 'identified resources' (in GJ/m2 or PJ/km2) for the hot sedimentary aquifers in the Sherwood...

Open-loop Ground Source Heat Pump viability screening map, England and Wales (OGC WxS INSPIRE)

The British Geological Survey (BGS) in collaboration with the Environment Agency (EA) has developed a web-based tool that provides an indication of whether suitable conditions exist in a given area...
