This offshore Quaternary geology dataset shows the distribution of interpreted lithostratigraphical units within the shallow subsurface. The dataset represents the Quaternary geology immediately beneath the active seabed sediment layer.
Understanding how one of the world’s most active volcanoes builds up material, and how they collapse to feed hot flows
BGS has a longstanding track record of producing high-quality reference materials and has released ten new soil reference materials.
The first regional assessment for 30 years will support offshore marine and subsurface planning for the UK’s low-carbon energy infrastructure, including the 2030 target of 45 to 50 GW generated through offshore wind.
A comprehensive collection of geological samples from the vicinity of a former mine in Scotland is now available to scientists for further research.
BGS operates and maintains a wide range of state-of-the-art laboratories and other facilities, which underpin virtually all of our research.
We work with partners worldwide to enhance understanding of hazards, vulnerability, exposure and risk to ensure our science is useful, usable and used.
Providing independent and expert geoscientific tools and advice to assess different adaptation options to coastal flooding and erosion.
