A coherent series of flat-file geotechnical datasets generated during the applied geology mapping of Exeter, Deeside, Coventry, Nottingham, Bath, Castleford/Pontefract, and the Black Country, and mapping of the Thame 1:50k sheet. For each of these projects, data were abstracted from the available site investigations within the mapping area. The structure of the datasets is limited, in that all geological and geotechnical data are attributed to 'samples' at discrete depths. The datasets include the more common geotechnical parameters, although some are entered as only class intervals, rather than in detail. All the datasets are held as paper coding sheets, with minor variations between projects. Most were digitised in Smartware and/or Statgraphics software and may not be readily accessible.

Data relating to the investigation of landfill sites and associated pollution from sites in the UK, Southern Europe, South America, Africa and S.E.Asia. Data include borehole information, lithological information, geology, hydrochemistry, hydrology and analytical results of samples.

The dataset comprises 40 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, from across the North Sea area specifically the north and west of Orkney, and east of Shetland, during April of 1991. A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Scottish Office Agriculture and Fisheries Department Aberdeen Marine Laboratory.

This dataset comprises hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, during April - May 1990 along a transect in the eastern Atlantic, incorporating the Azores-Biscay Rise, Western Madeira Rise, Saharan Seamounts and Cape Verde Terrace. A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the University of Edinburgh Department of Geology and Geophysics as part of the Biogeochemical Ocean Flux Study (BOFS).

This dataset comprises 21 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, in June 1990 from a grid in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, centred at approximately 47 N, 15 W. A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Plymouth Marine Laboratory as part of the Biogeochemical Ocean Flux Study (BOFS).

The dataset comprises 28 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, from across the North Sea area specifically the Fair Isle, Orkney and east of Shetland, during April of 1990. A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Scottish Office Agriculture and Fisheries Department Aberdeen Marine Laboratory.

This dataset comprises 123 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, during June -July 1989 from a pre-determined 123-station survey grid covering the southern North Sea (south of 56N). A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory as part of the North Sea Project water column survey.

A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory as part of the North Sea Project water column survey.

This dataset comprises 114 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, during August - September 1989 from a pre-determined 123-station survey grid covering the southern North Sea (south of 56N). A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory as part of the North Sea Project water column survey.

The dataset comprises 22 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, from across the Norwegian Sea and the North East Atlantic Ocean (limit 40W) areas specifically the Iceland/Faroes area, during July and August of 1990. A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the Institute of Oceanographic Sciences Deacon Laboratory.
