Sedimentological data from the Limpopo River Basin dams, southern Africa, 2018-2021
Franchi, F. | Chirindja, F.J. | Pasqualotto, F. | Hussey, S. | Comte, J-C.
2023
The data set contains grain size distributions, organic matter (OM) content and trace metal distribution (including Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr and Pb) of 37 shallow cores of sediments sampled from dams across the Limpopo River Basin. The dams include: Gaborone, Lotsane and Shashe dams in Botswana;...
Geochemical data from sediments and porewaters of shallow sediment cores from hydrothermal seeps in the Guaymas Basin, Gulf of California
Rochelle-Bates, Nathan | Long, Annabel | MacGilchrist, Graeme | Teske, Andreas | Stüeken, Eva E.
2024
The dataset includes organic carbon and nitrogen isotope data, as well as elemental abundance data from marine sediments that were obtained by push corers from hydrothermal seeps in the modern Guaymas Basin, Gulf of Mexico. Also included are pore water measurements of ammonium concentrations...
Microscopy data from Basalt Samples, Reykjanes Ridge, North Atlantic Ocean, IODP Expedition 395C
McNamara, David | University of Liverpool SEM Shared Research Facility (SEM SRF)
2024
This data comprises various transmitted and reflected light microscopy images, scanning electron imagery, chemical mapping (energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy), and crystallographic mapping (electron backscatter diffraction) of basalt samples. Basalt cores were taken from the Reykjanes...
In-situ rock deformation and micron-scale crack network evolution: a high-resolution time-resolved x-ray micro-tomography dataset
Cartwright-Taylor, Alexis | Main, Ian | Butler, Ian | Fusseis, Florian | Flynn, Michael | King, Andrew
2020
This collection comprises two time-series of 3D in-situ synchrotron x-ray microtomography (μCT) volumes showing two Ailsa Craig micro-granite samples (ACfresh02 and ACHT01) undergoing triaxial deformation. These data were collected in-situ at the PSICHE beamline at the SOLEIL synchrotron,...
Metaschoepite dissolution in sediment column systems – groundwater/soil geochemistry and uranium X-ray spectroscopy data
Bower, W. | Morris, K. | Livens, F.R. | Mosselmans, J.F.W. | Fallon, C.M. | Fuller, A.J. | Natrajan, L.S. | Boothman, C. | Lloyd, J.R. | Utsunomia, S. | Grolimund, D. | Ferreira Sanchez, D. | Jilbert, T. | Parker, J.E. | Neill, T. | Law, G.
2019
This dataset contains the results of a laboratory study investigating the dissolution of UO3•nH2O particles in dynamic sediment/groundwater column systems, representative of the shallow subsurface at the Sellafield Ltd. site, UK. Measurements were carried out to determine the extent of uranic...
Lipid biomarker palaeothermometry and carbon isotope data for eleven lignites spanning the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary in North America
Jerrett, Rhodri | O’Connor, Lauren | Lengger, Sabine | Dearing Crampton-Flood, Emily | Price, Gregory | van Dongen, Bart | Davies, Marc
2024
The dataset consists of eleven spreadsheet tabs, each tab containing lipid biomarker palaeothermometry (air temperature reconstructions) and bulk organic carbon isotope data from individual lignites that are known to stratigraphically span the Cretaceous-Palaeogene (K-Pg) boundary....
Sediment records of the 2016-2017 flood from Notwane dam, Upper Limpopo basin, Botswana
Franchi, F. | Comte, J.C.
2019
The data set contains grain size distributions, organic matter (OM) contents and trace metals distribution metal distribution (Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr and Pb) of seven (7) shallow cores of sediments from the Notwane Dam (southern Botswana). The cores have been collected with a push corer using PVC pipes...
High precision zircon U-Pb data for plutonic rocks from the Masirah and Ra's Madrakah ophiolites, South East Oman
Jansen, Max | MacLeod, Christopher | Lissenberg, Johan | Parkinson, Ian | Condon, Daniel
2024
Zircon U-Pb isotope data are presented for eight plutonic rocks from the Masirah ophiolite and one plutonic rock from the Ra's Madrakah ophiolite (South East Oman). These data constrain the age of formation of the two ophiolite nappes exposed on Masirah Island (early Cretaceous), whereas two...
Natural radionuclide concentrations in soil, water, sediment and biota in England and Wales
Beresford, N.A. | Barnett, C.L. | Jones, D.G. | Wood, M.D. | Appleton, J.D. | Breward, N. | Copplestone, D.
2015
Data comprise estimates of activity concentrations of naturally occurring radionuclides (40K, 238U and 232Th series radionuclides) in environmental media (soil and stream sediments and waters) and non-human biota (focusing on the ICRP Reference Animals and Plants). For soil, stream sediments...
Geochemistry and grain size of terrestrial sediments collected across a stream network, Swineshaw Moor, UK, 2018
Warburton, J.
2023
This dataset contains details of sediment geochemistry, loss-on-ignition and sediment median particle size for terrestrial sediment samples collected across the stream network of Harehill and Swineshaw Moors, Stalybridge, Tameside, Manchester. Samples were collected on three occasions in 2018...
