Map of topsoil compaction risk (partial cover)

The map shows the risk of the topsoil becoming compacted due to the passage of machinery. This map primarily covers the cultivated land in Scotland and provides information on the risk of topsoil...

Map of subsoil compaction risk (partial cover)

The map shows the vulnerability of subsoils to compaction by traffic. It covers most of Scotland’s cultivated agricultural land area. The subsoil compaction risk gives information on the likelihood...

Numerical calculations of compacting flow past spheres and circular cylinders (NERC grant NE/I023929/1)

This data contains the results of numerical simulations described in the following two papers: Alisic L., Rhebergen S., Rudge J.F., Katz R.F., Wells G.N. Torsion of a cylinder of partially molten...

Soil Erosion and Compaction Risk Groups

A standardised framework for classifying soil into simplified groups to assess soil structure, incorporating factors like erosion risk, drainage, and organic matter content. Attribution statement:...

Compaction in the Skaergaard Intrusion (NERC grant NE/J021520/1)

Electron backscatter diffraction data for cumulates from the Skaergaard Intrusion of East Greenland. 12 samples from the Skaergaard Intrusion: 9 from the Layered Series, and 3 from the trough...

Detections of tremor at a set of template locations, Vancouver Island, Canada, over the course of four slow slip events in 2004, 2008, 2009, and 2010 (NERC Grant NE/P012507/1)

Detections of tremor at a set of template locations over the course of four slow slip events in 2004, 2008, 2009, and 2010. As well as identified bursts of tremor within these windows. The dataset...

Datafiles from elevated temperature velocity-step tests in a triaxial deformation apparatus

Datafiles are from a suite of frictional velocity step experiments on clay-bearing fault gouges, at elevated temperatures up to 180°C. The aim was to test if varying temperature reduces the...

Fault slip potential for Horn River Basin hydraulic fracturing-induced seismicity (NERC Grant NE/R018006/1)

This dataset contains a catalogue of in-situ models for a fault activated by hydraulic fracturing in the Horn River Basin in July 2011. These were created as a part of Kettlety et al. (2019),...

High velocity friction experiments, Sumatra 2018 (NERC grant NE/P011268/1)

High velocity friction experiments. In this study, new samples recovered by IODP (Integrated Ocean Drilling Program) Exp. 362 from incoming Indian plate sediments will be used to investigate the...

Triaxial data, hydrostatic loading data and processed representative elementary area (REA), grain size image analysis data for Bentheim, Castlegate and a synthetic sandstone sample (NERC Grant NE/L002469/1)

We examine the role of cement on compaction band formation by performing triaxial tests on three sandstones, Bentheim, Castlegate and a synthetic sandstone which possess very similar porosities...

Census 2001 Key Statistics

The Census 2001 Key Statistics series of reports provide a compact and self-contained reference of key results from the Census in an easily digestible form. Each report includes results for every...

Spend over £25,000 in the Cabinet Office

A monthly-updated list of all financial transactions spending over £25,000 made by the Cabinet Office, as part of the Government's commitment to transparency in expenditure. The final column...

The effect of clay content on the dilatancy and frictional properties of fault gouge (NERC Grant NE/L002469/1)

This information details the method of calculating dilatancy from pore volumometry measurements. In the velocity step tests, an initial shear enhanced compaction phase drastically reduces the...

Mechanical and physical properties of quartz sand aggregates (NERC grant NE/K009656/1)

These data contain time series of stress, strain, confining pressure, pore pressure, pore volume and elastic wave velocities of samples of quartz sand aggregates deformed under hydrostatic and...

Corinth Rift, Greece Fault Location and Activity Rate data (NERC Grant NE/R016550/1)

The data are derived from interpretation of seismic reflection profiles within the offshore Corinth Rift, Greece (the Gulf of Corinth) integrated with IODP scientific ocean drilling borehole data...

The BGS Collection Of Geologist's Field Notebooks, Section Books and Field Record Cards.

Manuscript notebooks, section books and field record cards containing detailed information gathered by the Survey geologists (or other recognised geologists) from various sources as part of the...

BGS Geology - 625k (DiGMapGB-625) Linear version 5

Data identifying linear features (shown as polylines) representing geological faults at the ground or bedrock surface (beneath superficial deposits). The scale of the data is 1:625 000 scale...

Results from geochemical surveys in urban areas

Laboratory results for the analysis of soil samples collected from urban areas during the baseline geochemical mapping programme of Britain. Sample sites are described on field slips. Chemical...
