Continuing BGS's sustained track record of energy storage research, which will underpin future laboratory, field and GIS-based activities and commissions.
The BGS monitors glaciers and the landscape that surrounds them in a number of ways, such as boreholes, ground penetrating radar and hydrometric monitoring.
Accurately monitoring and eventually predicting landslide movement through scientific research.
The BGS has been studying the geology underneath some of India’s large cities, including Amaravati — a city so new it hasn’t been built yet.
The East African Rift (EAR) is a unique natural laboratory because a wide range of dynamic geological processes, such as rifting, magmatic intrusions and different types of volcanic eruptions, can be directly observed and studied.
The BGS Volcanology group are supporting a variety of projects under the ODA programme that are building partnerships, sharing knowledge, and enhancing our understanding of hazards and risks.
The BGS offers a range of services and information for businesses, home-owners, policy-makers and the general public.
Deneholes are medieval chalk extraction pits comprising a narrow shaft with a number of chambers radiating from the base. Their historical distribution is not well known and they can cause subsidence and collapses.
