BGS GeoCoast is a package of geospatial datasets designed to provide information on the geological conditions and constraints around the coastline of Britain.
BGS Geology data is provided as a series of layered themes. Depending on the scale of data chosen, up to five main themes are available.
The BGS is currently setting up a pilot-scale observatory to serve Hanoi, Vietnam, in the context of hazards and resilience to those hazards.
New ‘hydrological hub’ to foster research and provide essential national water management datasets and tools.
The partnership will focus on research on multi-hazard preparedness within the country.
Providing independent and expert geological advice, research and data acquisition to anyone working in the marine environment.
Soil piping is a naturally occurring hydraulic process that leads to the development of macropores (large, air-filled voids) in the subsurface that are associated with landslides and collapse subsidence.
Cambering, gulls and valley bulging are responses to stress relief that results from rapid erosion of the landscape in conjunction with gravitational forces.
