Microplastics in sediments of the River Thames Basin, UK

Horton, A.A. | Svendsen, C. | Williams, R. | Spurgeon, D. | Lahive, E.

2017

This dataset provides numbers and types of plastic particles extracted from sediment samples of three tributaries of the river Thames: the River Leach, the River Lambourn and The Cut. These rivers are regularly monitored for a range of water quality and biological characteristics as part of the...

210Pb-dated historical lake sediment metal concentrations from The Lake District, England (mid-19th century to 2016)

Turner, S.D. | Yang, H. | Rose, N.L. | Shilland, J. | Bennion, H. | Jones, V. | Sayer, C. | Baker, A. | Roberts, C. | Bishop, I.

2022

Measurements of sediment properties (incl. organic and carbonate content), radionuclides (210Pb, 137Cs, 241Am) and elements (including mercury, nickel, copper, zinc, and lead) in lake sediment successions. Radionuclide dating provides a reliable chronology of sediment ages from the mid-19th...

Effect of porosity and clays on geophysical and transport properties of sandstone exposed to CO2 injection: Influence of rock heterogeneities on CO2 storage monitoring

Falcon-Suarez, Ismael | Mondol, Nazmul Haque

2024

This dataset gathers the data collected during a brine:CO2 flow-through experiments conducted on three sandstones with similar mineralogical compositions (major minerals) but different porosity, clay-size fraction and clay mineralogy. The aim was to study the effect of such heterogeneities on...

Zircon U-Pb data for plutonic rocks from IODP Hole 1256D, eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean

Lissenberg, Johan | Condon, Daniel | Smye, Andrew | Anma, Ryo

2023

Zircon U-Pb data are presented for six plutonic rocks recovered from the Pacific oceanic crust (IODP Hole 1256D). These data constrain the age of the section, as well as the duration of crustal accretion. The data cover the bulk of the plutonic section recovered and were generated during...

2023

This dataset contains raw (clean but not interpreted) triaxial compressive strength data of tests conductive at elevated pressure and temperature as outlined in "Vannucchi, P., Clarke, A., de Montserrat, A., Ougier-Simonin, A., Aldega, L., & Morgan, J. P. (2022). A strength inversion origin...

40Ar/39Ar geochronology of basaltic samples from Bruce Bank and Jane Bank of the Scotia Sea

Riley, Teal

2023

The datasets refer to the dating of three basaltic samples collected from Bruce Bank and Jane Bank in the southern Scotia Sea. The samples were dredged from depths between 850 -1900 m from steep scrap slopes at two locations (DR.225: 59.927 degrees S, 39.154 degrees W; DR.84: 62.468 degrees...

Bathymetric and lake chemistry data for Lago Pato,Torres del Paine National Park, Chile
