UKGEOS Glasgow groundwater and surface water chemistry dataset release (2021–2022)

The data release includes surface and groundwater chemistry data from 99 samples (33 surface water, 60 groundwater, and 6 groundwater duplicates) collected during the baseline water monitoring at the UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Glasgow facility. This release from the British Geological Survey (BGS) covers surface and groundwater samples collected between 22 June 2021 and 28 January 2022 from 6 surface water sites, 5 mine water boreholes, and 5 environmental monitoring boreholes. The samples were then analysed for the concentrations of selected parameters at BGS and other laboratories. It contains a report and 2 data sheets GroundWaterChemData2 and SurfaceWaterChemData3.

Statement
Samples of groundwater and surface water were taken during six sampling rounds between June 2021 and January 2022 as part of the environmental baseline monitoring at UKGEOS Glasgow. Ongoing COVID-19 restrictions and building activities at site affected the regularity and completeness of each round such that there was not a complete set of samples for every site. After collection, the samples underwent analysis at BGS, SOCOTEC and Scottish Water laboratories for a range of inorganic and organic determinands. Where possible, methods were UKAS accredited. The data underwent quality assurance by BGS hydrogeochemists and is presented in two data sheets. The BGS undertook further quality control checking of the combined laboratory and field observation dataset. Further description can be found in the accompanying report (Bearcock et al., 2023 https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/535831/).
