This modelled fluvial flood depth data with climate change was created for the 1% annual chance of flooding situations and was produced as a by-product from the 2004 generalised modelling project....

The BGS collection of 1:10 560 / 1:10 000 National Grid Series geological maps. These maps are based on the Ordnance Survey National Grid series of maps, which are defined by the 10 km intervals...

These maps are based on the Ordnance Survey quarter-inch to the mile series of maps, for England / Wales and Scotland. Most maps in this series show solid geology only, but there are a few drift...

This dataset provides digital spatial information on the location and distribution of metallic mineral occurrences in Wales at a scale of 1:50 000. While the broader term ‘mineral resources’...

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - Data archived in BGS Digital Archive. The 'snowball Earth' theory has been the subject of widespread media attention, particularly its lively defence by key proponent, Prof....

The 1:250k Geological Maps of Northern Ireland comprise the Superficial Deposits Map (Drift, 1991) and the Bedrock Map (Solid Geology, 1997). These maps identify landscape areas based on their...

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names and rock type descriptions. The scale of the data is 1:625 000, providing a simplified interpretation of the...

This dataset provides digital spatial information on the location of mineral resources in England at a scale of 1:50 000. The term ‘mineral resources’ has a definition under international...

The methodology followed that adopted by the regional National Rivers Authority (NRA) in their most recent surveys (National Rivers Authority, 1994a). Four replicates were taken at each site...

The report describes the results of a macrobenthic survey carried out in Sullom Voe by the Oil Pollution Research Unit (OPRU) for the Shetland Oil Terminal Environmental Advisory Group (SOETAG)....

Loch Tarbert deeply bisects the south Hebridean island of Jura. It is a relatively small and shallow fiordic loch, some 11 km in length and 43 m at its deepest point. The loch is divided into...

The co-evolution and geographical spread of trees and deep-rooting systems is widely proposed to represent the 'Devonian engine' of global change that drove the weathering of soil minerals and...

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names. The scale of the data is 1:50 000 scale. Onshore coverage is provided for all of England, Wales, Scotland and...

Linear features (shown as polylines) in BGS Geology 50k are used to portray geological features and concepts that are normally depicted on maps in linear form, rather than polygonal form. The data...

The depth difference dataset (2004) is a depth grid showing the difference between modelled fluvial flood depths and modelled fluvial flood depths under climate change conditions (an increase in...
