As an independent geological survey, we provide data, knowledge and information on natural resources.
We combine rainfall statistics and landslide data to produce graphs demonstrating the relationship between landslides and rainfall.
In the event of an eruption in Iceland volcanic emissions may affect the UK. If they do, we need you to collect observations and samples to help us learn about the nature of the eruption.
We are measuring, recording and analysing ground motions from earthquakes and other seismic events across the UK and overseas.
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.
BGS releases improvements to its borehole layer on the GeoIndex, which makes access faster and improves quality.
The Rock Mechanics and Physics Laboratory researches the properties and behaviour of rocks and geomaterials at near-surface to shallow crustal depth.
