Monthly magnetic data from the Greenwich Magnetic Observatory Yearbooks (1841 – 1925)

This dataset contains monthly mean magnetic data from the Greenwich Observatory from 1841 to 1925. This dataset is the result of report https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/536965/ and is the published product of a study by the British Geological Survey (BGS). The main aim was to create a digital record of the monthly magnetic data stored in the Greenwich Magnetic Observatory yearbooks for 1841 to 1925, for the magnetic research community to use. The report also details the steps taken to convert the inclination and declination, from various published units to standardised units (arcminutes). We have also attempted to convert the horizontal and vertical force values published from 1868 to 1911 from British, and Gauss units to nanoTeslas, however, due to inconsistencies in the scaling factors, and time constraints, we have had limited success. Post-1912 the horizontal and vertical force data has successfully been converted into nanoTesla. Greenwich Magnetic Observatory (GRW) is located at 51°29'N 0°0'E 0m elevation. Observatory info can be found at: https://geomag.bgs.ac.uk/operations/greenwich.html The observatory yearbooks can be found at: http://www.geomag.bgs.ac.uk/data_service/data/yearbooks/grw.html A report describing this data set and its construction can be found at: https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/536965/

Qatar Carbonates and Carbon Storage Research Centre: Doddington Sandstone Computed Tomography Rock Scan - 6.4µm - 161213

The images in this dataset are a sample of Doddington Sandstone from a micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) scan acquired with a voxel resolution of 6.4µm. This dataset is part of a study on the effects of Voxel Resolution in a study of flow in porous media. A brief overview of this study summarised from Shah et al 2015 follows. A fundamental understanding of flow in porous media at the pore-scale is necessary to be able to upscale average displacement processes from core to reservoir scale. The study of fluid flow in porous media at the pore-scale consists of two key procedures: Imaging reconstruction of three-dimensional (3D) pore space images; and modelling such as with single and two-phase flow simulations with Lattice-Boltzmann (LB) or Pore-Network (PN) Modelling. Here we analyse pore-scale results to predict petrophysical properties such as porosity, single phase permeability and multi-phase properties at different length scales. The fundamental issue is to understand the image resolution dependency of transport properties, in order to up-scale the flow physics from pore to core scale. In this work, we use a high resolution micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) scanner to image and reconstruct three dimensional pore-scale images of five sandstones and five complex carbonates at four different voxel resolutions (4.4ìm, 6.2ìm, 8.3ìm and 10.2ìm, scanning the same physical field of view.

Qatar Carbonates and Carbon Storage Research Centre (QCCSRC)

The Qatar Carbonates and Carbon Storage Research Centre (QCCSRC), is the result of a 10-year, $70 million strategic collaboration between Imperial College London, Qatar Petroleum, Shell and the Qatar Science and Technology Park, part of Qatar Foundation. We had a collective vision of QCCSRC initiating and maintaining with more than 80 academic staff, postdoctoral researchers and PhD students having been involved with the programme. QCCSRC's expertise takes place across numerous different areas, including geological field studies, experimental laboratory studies to help validate modelling and simulations at molecular to pore to field scales.

BGS offshore activities and samples Web service

This Web service provides layers which show metadata relating to offshore sample collection and other activities undertaken by the British Geological Survey (BGS) and its predecessors. The layers are point layers which indicate the spatial locations of the samples or activities. This service groups data by the type of sample: borehole-type samples (including boreholes, vibrocorers, piston corers and other types of corer), grab samples and other samples (including dredge samples and cone penetrometer tests). For each sample type, two layers are provided: 1) A summary metadata layer containing details about the sample, the survey or cruise during which it was collected, and additional descriptive information, plus a link to scanned images of sample station datasheets (where available). 2) For samples which have undergone further geological interpretation, a layer which contains geological observations, measurements and interpretations at specific depth intervals. Two additional layers containing the results of particle size analysis (PSA) and geotechnical data (where collected) are also provided.

Isotope ratio measurements of the AMES Ce (cerium) standard (Willbold, 2007) (NERC Grant NE/J018031/1)

The dataset consists of a table of 64 isotope ratio measurements of the AMES Ce standard (Willbold, 2007). The data was collected at Imperial College, London between April 2013 and March 2014 using a ThermoScientific Triton thermal-ionisation mass spectrometer following the technique described in Willbold, Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry, 2007. The data is used to assess the reproducibility and accuracy of the mass spectrometric setup available at the time. Reference: Willbold, M., 2007.

BGS geochemical samples Web service

This Web service provides layers which show metadata relating to geochemical samples held by the British Geological Survey (BGS). The layers are point layers which indicate the spatial locations samples were taken from. Geochemical samples have been collected, analysed and stored in the BGS Geochemistry Database from different projects. The two most significant contributors to the database are the Geochemical Baseline Survey of the Environment (G-BASE) project and the Mineral Reconnaissance Programme (MRP). Each project took a variety of different sample types, including stream water, stream sediment, shallow soil and deep soil, and one layer is provided for each type of sample. The sample metadata provided include: sample name; sample type; the Regional Geochemical Atlas area (for G-BASE samples only) and a comma-separated list of available analytes. In many cases, samples are retained in the National Geoscience Data Centre (NGDC) at BGS Keyworth. For more information about obtaining samples or the results of their geochemical analyses, contact BGS Enquiries (enquiries@bgs.ac.uk).

Raw mechanical and processed data for Bleursville Sandstone deformed under triaxial conditions, at different temperatures and timescales.

The data includes the raw mechanical data (time, load, displacement, pore pressure, pore pressure volume and confining pressure) and the meaningful processed data used to plot figures and draw main conclusions (stress, strain, strain rate, pore volume change, effective mean stress, inelastic strain, yield points and Youngs modulus). In total 10 samples of Bleursville Sandstone were deformed under either constant strain rate or constant stress (creep) conditions and at room temperature, 75°C, 150 °C. Bleursville Sandstone is from Bleurville, Vosges, north-eastern France. This pale beige coloured sandstone has a starting porosity of 22.7%Used as clean, porous sandstone of homogenous nature. Data generated at University College London on a conventional triaxial apparatus. This dataset is used and fully described/interpreted in the paper: M. Jefferd, N. Brantut, P.G. Meredith and T.M. Mitchell, The Influence of Elevated Temperature on Time Dependent Compaction Creep in Sandstone , submitted to J. Geophys. Res.

BGS geological maps Web service

This Web service provides layers which are spatial indexes to the coverage of BGS (British Geological Survey) geological, geophysical, and hydrogeological maps from various different map series held by BGS in the National Geoscience Data Centre (NGDC). The layers include the spatial footprint of each map, and metadata including the map title, map series, nominal survey year, copyright year, scale, base material, colouration, the availability of an image, and, if available, a link to an image of the map. It includes maps from the start of systematic geological survey work in the 1830s, through to more recent BGS mapping. The maps referenced by this Web service are historical, and are not the same as the latest digital geological mapping from BGS.
