Quaternary UK offshore data digitised for the first time
The offshore wind industry will be boosted by the digitisation of a dataset showing the Quaternary geology at the seabed and the UK’s shallow subsurface.
Offshore Quaternary 250K
The 1:250 000-scale offshore geological map for quaternary geology (BGS Geology: marine quaternary 250k) is available digitally.
How the geology on our doorstep can help inform offshore infrastructure design
BGS is part of a new collaboration using onshore field work to contextualise offshore data and update baseline geological models which can inform the sustainable use of marine resources.
Extended seabed geology map of the Bristol Channel published
BGS has released significantly extended high-resolution maps that will support offshore green-energy initiatives in the area.
New seabed sediment maps reveal what lies beneath the waves
Marine ecosystem science and offshore infrastructure will be boosted by a new dataset showing sediment composition across the UK continental shelf.
Seabed sediments 250K
This offshore Quaternary geology dataset shows the distribution of interpreted lithostratigraphical units within the shallow subsurface. The dataset represents the Quaternary geology immediately beneath the active seabed sediment layer.
Offshore bedrock 250K
The BGS Offshore Bedrock 250k dataset depicts the distribution of the different types of bedrock on the UK Continental Shelf.
IODP³-NSF Expedition 501: successful offshore operations launches onshore phase
