Mining Hazard (not including coal) Great Britain version 8

Mining hazard (not including coal) summarises the location, extent and indicates the level of hazard associated with former and present underground mine workings. The dataset covers Great Britain and is published at 1: 50 000 scale. The content is derived from a range of data sources including, but not limited to the bedrock geology, extensive literature reviews of both published and unpublished documents, abandonment and mine plans, combined with a wealth of expert knowledge and experience. The release of version 8 builds on the content of previously published versions. The coverage has been expanded with the inclusion of newly identified areas and drawing on data from the BGS published Britpits (BGS database of British Pits -includes both surface and underground mineral workings) and other resources. For the first time, zones of influence have been integrated (for evaporites, oil shales and building stones) to indicate the areas surrounding mining sites which might be impacted. The data have been compiled and presented in an easy to use format to provide a national overview of the country's mining legacy. Given the long and complex mining history of Great Britain, this dataset represents the best information available at the present time (September 2020). Work continues to develop this product, which will result in the release of ad hoc updates in the future.

Infiltration SuDS Map (Sustainable Drainage Systems)

This national dataset brings together sixteen national datasets to create a GIS product that provides the information necessary to determine the extent to which the ground is suitable for infiltration sustainable drainage systems (SuDS). It includes derivations of the following datasets: soluble rocks, landslide hazards, groundwater flooding susceptibility, made ground, shallow mining hazards, geological indicators of flooding, depth to water table, superficial thickness, compressible ground, collapsible ground, swelling clays, running sands, predominant flow mechanism, permeability indices and the Environment Agencys source protection zone dataset. All datasets have been reclassified and reattributed (with text descriptions and a score field indicating the suitability of the ground for infiltration) and feature in the end product both as single entities, but also in derived 'screening' maps that combine numerous datasets.

British Geological Survey (BGS) Geophysical and Sampling Survey S1/72/01: Southern UK Waters (25/Jul/1972 to 19/Dec/1972)

This sampling and geophysical survey has been carried out by British Geological Survey (BGS) formerly Institute of Geological Sciences (IGS) for BGS, the survey took place from to July to December 1972 in Cardigan Bay (28 July to 11 August and 5-8 October), Bristol Channel (12 August to 15 October ), North Irish Sea (16 October to 4 December) and The Wash (December) on board the MV Whitethorn. The purpose was to collect data for IGS Continental Shelf Unit 1 as part of the ongoing UK regional mapping plus other projects. Although this was primarily a drilling and sampling survey geophysical equipment was operated but not routinely. Sea floor data were collected using echo sounder and transit sonar. Sub-bottom profiling data were collected using pinger. Sample data were collected using borehole wireline drilling, gravity corer (rock and sediment) and shipek grab. These data are archived by BGS. No BGS survey report currently available, summary descriptions of surveys are contained in IGS 1972 annual report.

Corrosivity Map for the UK

The dataset is a Soil Corrosivity Map for the U.K. based on the BGS DIGMapGB-PLUS Map. The creation of this dataset involves scoring the Soil Parent Material types for five different attributes that contribute towards the corrosion of underground assets. These are (i) high or low soil pH, (ii) general soil moisture, (iii) the likelihood that soil saturated and undergo periods of anaerobic conditions, (iv) the presence of sulphides and sulphates and (v) the resistivity of the soil parent material. The scoring of each of these parameters was undertaken based on the Cast Iron Pipe Association (CIPA) (now the Ductile Iron Pipe Research Association, DIPRA) rating system. By combining the scores of each parameter a GIS layer has been created that identifies those areas that may provide a corrosive environment to underground cast iron assets. The final map has been classified into three categories signifying: 'GROUND CONDITIONS BENEATH TOPSOIL ARE UNLIKELY TO CAUSE CORROSION OF IRON', 'GROUND CONDITIONS BENEATH TOPSOIL MAY CAUSE CORROSION TO IRON', 'GROUND CONDITIONS BENEATH TOPSOIL ARE LIKELY TO CAUSE CORROSION TO IRON'. The dataset is designed to aid engineers and planners in the management of and maintenance of underground ferrous assets.

Marine Aggregate Levy Sustainability Fund (MALSF) Groundtruthing Survey 2009_8_MEPF: MALSF Humber Regional Environmental Characterisation Project: Southern North Sea (20/Apr/2009 to 26/May/2009)

The Humber Regional Environmental Characterisation (REC) surveys are funded through the marine Environment Protection Fund of the Aggregate Levy Sustainability Fund (MALSF). The aims of the surveys are to acquire marine geophysical and sample data, to enable broad scale characterisation of the seabed habitat, associated biological communities and potential historic environmental assets within the Humber REC region. From the interpretation of the geophysical data stations for 20 vibrocore, 90 clam shell grab, 90 Hamon grab, 90 seabed photo 2 anchor dredge and 30 scientific trawls were selected. The survey was conducted over 2 phases (1-Geotechnical and Environmental): Leg 1 (Geotechnical) – to acquire 90 large-volume (Clamshell) grab samples and 20 sediment vibrocore samples to ground-truth the geophysical data and contribute to overall environmental interpretation. In addition, these data will describe seabed geology and prehistoric environmental assets including archaeological features and deposits of archaeological potential. Leg 2 (Environmental) – to acquire seabed imagery (video and still photography) and grab samples at 90 locations and 30 trawl samples; these data to ground-truth the geophysical data and contribute to overall interpretation. These data will also support the interpretation and delineation of infaunal and epifaunal communities. Good progress was made with the sampling field work and further vibrocore, Hamon grab and seabed photograph sites were selected and most of these were also occupied. The selection of these sites was undertaken by: the University of Birmingham Archaeology Department (vibrocores), British Geological Survey (clam shell grabs) and Marine Ecological Survey (Hamon grabs, camera stations and trawls). The marine sampling operations undertaken in the Humber REC area aboard the vessel Gardline Sea Profiler between 20th April 2009 and 26th May 2009, the rationale behind the surveys and the post-cruise processing results of the biological, sediment and shallow sub-seabed (vibrocore) data acquired. The survey area lies off the east coast of England, in the southern part of the North Sea, offshore the Humber Estuary, (Figure 1). It covers an area of approximately 11,000 km2. It extends eastward from the coast almost to the UK Median Line.

Experimental friction data for different grain size quartz gouges under different effective normal stresses (NERC Grant NE/P002943/1)

The data are from a suite of friction experiments performed on 3 different grain size quartz gouges (5, 15 and 30 microns). The quartz gouge layers were sheared under a range of effective normal stresses (40-120 MPa), at a displacement rate of 1 micron/s, and the evolution of shear stress was monitored with increasing displacement (up to a maximum displacement of 8.5 mm). The gouges typically exhibit a transition from stable sliding, where the gouge layers shear in a continuous smooth fashion, to unstable sliding with displacement, where the gouges exhibit stick-slip behaviour. The transition from stable to unstable sliding occurs more efficiently in fine-grained quartz gouges and is promoted by high effective normal stresses.
