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...
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...
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....
Mineral chemistry and BSE-SEM images
Petrone, Chiara M
2023
Chemical analysis of pyroxenes and BSE-SEM images from pumices and lava flows from Popocatepetl Volcano, Mexico. Whole rock isotope data from pumices and lava flows from Popocatepetl Volcano, Mexico.
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...
Stoer Group and Sibley Group nitrogen geochemistry in red beds
Stüeken, Eva E. | Fralick, Philip | Prave, Anthony R.
2024
Nitrogen abundances in red shales are shown to be suitable as a biosignature that may be applicable to red beds on Mars. The data set includes organic carbon and nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios, carbonate carbon and oxygen isotope ratios, and metal abundances. We evaluate potential...
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...
Filter pack and cascade impactor samples of gas and aerosol particulate matter on the Island of Hawai'i (2018, 2019)
Ilyinskaya, Evgenia | Mason, Emily | Wieser, Penny | Liu, Emma | Whitty, Rachel
2021
This dataset reports chemical speciation of airborne gas and aerosol particulate matter (PM) sampled in various locations on the Island of Hawai'i in 2018 and 2019. The 2018 samples were collected during a large eruption of Kilauea volcano. The 2019 samples were collected during a period of...
