BGS Groundwater Flooding Susceptibility: helping mitigate one of the UK’s most costly hazards

Groundwater flooding accounts for an estimated £530 million in damages per year; geoscientific data can help to minimise its impact.

Sea level rise and coastal erosion: what’s the real impact?

How much of an issue are coastal vulnerabilities and what do we need to consider to increase our resilience to future events?

Six BGS datasets for assessing shrink–swell subsidence hazards

Shrink–swell subsidence is one of the most significant geological hazards affecting the UK. BGS has six datasets to help assess the problem.

Funding awarded to map the stocks and flows of technology metals in everyday electronic devices

A new BGS project has been awarded Circular Electricals funding from Material Focus to investigate the use of technology metals in everyday electrical items.

Groundwater vulnerability data

Our groundwater vulnerability maps provide an assessment of the vulnerability of groundwater in overlying superficial rocks and those that comprise the underlying bedrock.

Data

The BGS is a data-rich organisation with over 400 datasets in its care.

GeoClimate UKCP18 Open

Based on higher emissions scenario, provides the most susceptible value for the time periods 2030s and 2070s within the grid cell.
