A set of simple, practical activities that model seismological processes and activities carried out by seismologists.
The BGS corrosivity dataset is a GIS layer supporting the management of underground iron assets that has been created in response to the growing awareness of the cost of maintenance of structures such as pipelines and building foundations.
In 2019, a landslide occurred on a disused former sandstone quarry slope in Mansfield and affected over 35 properties.
The BGS collections include continuous borehole core, broken core, cuttings and hydrogeological core and borehole material.
The BGS is the accredited Marine Environment Data and Information Network data archive centre for geology, geophysics and backscatter data.
BGS is engaged in surveying the country for former mineral sites due to their importance for planning purposes and as potential sources of currently scarce resources such as building stone, in addition to hazard checking.
The National Geoscience programme is a forward-looking investment in UK geology that provides relevant, coherent and enriched geoscience knowledge for our stakeholders.
Different types of volcano are formed according to the properties of the magma that creates them.
