Studying soil moisture content via sensor networks to design the most efficient sample network.
The BGS uses cutting-edge technology in Iceland to monitor how glaciers and their surrounding landscape change over time, and how they respond to climate.
BGS GISGroundwater is an add-in to ArcGIS that models the depth to groundwater beneath the land surface.
Our research addresses issues related to the sustainability of water resources and quality, impacts of environmental change on the water cycle, natural hazards, and human health.
Groundwater provides water even during periods of low rainfall. But this resource can become highly stressed if rainfall is reduced in the long-term.
The BGS has provided geological data and interpretations concerning the safe storage and disposal of radioactive waste for nearly 70 years.
Volcanic ash in the atmosphere is a hazard particularly for civil aviation. Atmospheric dispersion models are used to predict volcanic ash transport.
The Anthropocene is a newly proposed geological time-unit, first suggested in the year 2000. It is as significant as the discovery of plate tectonics.
