Leeds office registers of palaeontological thin sections

Registers of thin sections of macrofossils originally held in the Leeds Office. The locality and geological horizon is also given. PC1-462 have been used.

Digital images of petrology rock thin sections

Digital images of petrology rock thin sections from samples that are referenced in the BGS Petrological Collection Database (Britrocks). Two reference images are being captured for each thin...

London office registers of palaeontological thin sections

Three registers of thin sections of predominantly Palaeozoic macrofossils together with algae, plants and a very few radiolarians and spores. The locality and geological horizon is also given It...

Effects of thinning and extraction on advance regeneration (Wykeham 2007)

Extensive damage to and mortality of understorey seedlings during overstorey thinning could prevent the use of natural regeneration as a method of restocking. Experiments carried out on three...

Ocean Island Basalt olivine compositions and thin section maps (NERC grant NE/J021539/1)

High precision electron-probe analysis of olivine compositions from a set of ocean island basalts. Accompanied by thin section scans and QEMSCAN (Quantitative Evaluation of Minerals by SCANning)...

Spatial and temporal datasets for shear-thinning and Newtonian small-scale analogue dyke experiments

These data consist of spatial and temporal datasets for 7 different small-scale laboratory experiments of fluid-driven fractures, described in the paper The hidden internal flow dynamics of...

Effects of thinning and extraction on advance regeneration of Sitka spruce (Dartmoor 2005)

Extensive damage to and mortality of understorey seedlings during overstorey thinning could prevent the use of natural regeneration as a method of restocking. Experiments carried out on three...

Timing and Rates of Ice Sheet Thinning in the Ellsworth Mountains, Weddell Sea Embayment: Constraints on West Antarctic Ice Sheet Dynamics

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. The overall aim is to establish the timing and rate of thinning of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) from its maximum extent in an area inland of the Weddell Sea...
