Williams, Kate | Urbani, Stefano

2025

This dataset consists of EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction), AMS (anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility) and AARM (anhysteretic anisotropy of remanent magnetisation) files, and magnetic carrier characterisation information, for samples collected from the Whin Sill ,northern England....

SHARP UK and UK Continental Shelf stress field observations

Fellgett, Mark W | Williams, John D O

2025

This dataset is made up of two parts. 1. Stress field orientations which were interpreted as part of the Stress Histories and Reservoir Properties project (SHARP Storage). SHARP Storage is a research project funded under the ERA-NET ACT program, Project No 327342. http://www.act-ccs.eu/. 2....

Datafiles from elevated temperature velocity-step tests in a triaxial deformation apparatus

Ashman, Isabel | Faulkner, Daniel | Mariani, Elisabetta

2025

Datafiles are from a suite of frictional velocity step experiments on clay-bearing fault gouges, at elevated temperatures up to 180°C. The aim was to test if varying temperature reduces the stability of clay-rich faults, measured by the rate and state friction parameter (a-b). Data were...

Geochemical and geochronological data from the Falkland Islands, 2023-2024

Riley, Teal

2024

Geological fieldwork was carried out in the Falkland Islands in March 2022 to help understand the depositional history and provenance of Late Permian sedimentary rocks of East Falkland. To accurately determine their depositional age and precise provenance we conducted a detailed analysis of...

Field observations and analysis data for rock samples from Kamativi, Zimbabwe, 2018

Shaw, Richard | Goodenough, Kathryn M | Rushton, Jeremy C | Mounteney, Ian

2025

This dataset comprises geological field observations, whole-rock geochemical data (ICP-MS) and mineralogical data (XRD, SEM-EDS) for rock samples collected in and around the Kamativi area of Zimbabwe in October 2018. Samples of between 5 and 10 kilograms were collected in the field by a team of...

Spatial and temporal datasets for shear-thinning and Newtonian small-scale analogue dyke experiments

Kavanagh, Janine | Chalk, Caitlin | Jones, Thomas | Dennis, David

2025

These data consist of spatial and temporal datasets for 7 different small-scale laboratory experiments of fluid-driven fractures, described in the paper The hidden internal flow dynamics of shear-thinning magma in dikes (Kavanagh et al., 2025, accepted in AGU Advances, March 2025). These...

Triaxial compressive strength data of tests conducted at varying strain rates and confining pressures on salt samples from the Northwich Halite Member

Valdez II, Robert | Forbes Inskip, Nathaniel D | Ougier-Simonin, Audrey

2025

The dataset contains triaxial compressive strength data of salt samples collected from the Northwich Halite Member at the Winsford Mine in Cheshire, UK. Each sample was subjected to varying strain or displacement-equivalent rates under conventional triaxial stress conditions to evaluate its...

Brazilian Disc Tensile Strength (BDTS) data of tests conducted on salt samples from the Northwich Halite Member

Valdez II, Robert | Ougier-Simonin, Audrey

2025

The dataset contains indirect tensile strength data of salt samples collected from the Northwich Halite Member at the Winsford Mine in Cheshire, UK. Each sample was unconfined and deformed under uniaxial compression, where the primary principal stress corresponds to the axial stress and the...

Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) data of tests conducted on salt samples from the Northwich Halite Member

Valdez II, Robert | Ougier-Simonin, Audrey

2025

The dataset contains unconfined compressive strength data of salt samples collected from the Northwich Halite Member at the Winsford Mine in Cheshire, UK. Each sample was unconfined and deformed under standard uniaxial stress conditions, where the primary principal stress corresponds to the...

Field, petrographical and geochemical data collected from Asbian and Brigantian strata from the Derbyshire Platform, UK

Hollis, Cathy | Mangione, Alessandro | Gunn, John | Shaw, Richard | Worley, Noel | Farrant, Andrew | Whitaker, Fiona | Crowley, Stephen | Ingalls, Miquela | McCormick, Cole | Tartese, Romain
