This dataset contains estimated ambient background concentrations of potentially harmful elements for rural and selected urban topsoils.
Looking back at BGS's online portal for open-access data, OpenGeoscience.
Buried valleys are ancient river or subglacial (beneath a glacier) drainage networks that are now abandoned and have become either partly or completely buried by more recent sediment.
The UK stream sediment geochemistry maps present data compiled from the G-BASE and TellusNI geochemical projects.
The BGS is involved in many initiatives, at UK, European and global scales, that aim to increase access to public environmental spatial data in interoperable formats.
Coastal vulnerability is an issue in many coastal areas of Great Britain. Understanding the processes and identifying potential geohazards and interdependencies within the coastal zone allows users to mitigate and plan to improve future resilience.
Systematic geochemical sampling and analysis of rural stream sediment, stream water and soil samples was carried out across the UK by the BGS and GSNI.
