Specialising in organic geochemical measurements at the bulk and molecular level in complex matrices, like rock, sediment, soil and water.
Creating and using leading-edge technologies such as geophysical tomography to visualise the shallow subsurface.
We are working with partners to develop a citizen science app for collecting and sharing observations of natural hazards and impacts in near real-time.
BGS scientists are collaborating with research partners to improve knowledge of landslide susceptibility in Ethiopia.
Understanding and assessing geochemical hazards in the environment has been a part of the BGS portfolio of research for over 50 years.
Find out about the different types of volcanic hazards that put human lives, livelihoods or infrastructure at risk of harm.
Volcanic eruptions can be explosive, sending ash, gas and magma high up into the atmosphere, or effusive, producing lava flows and domes.
