Hydrological monitoring data for 55 years from 1967 to 2022 for the Coalburn catchment (1.5 km2). The catchment is located in Northern England within Kielder forest, Northumberland, and is the longest running forest research catchment in the UK. In 1972/73 the upland grassland was ploughed and planted with a conifer forest. The trees are now mature and around 30% of the catchment has been felled. From 1967 to 1993 a mixture of hourly and daily data is available and from 1993 onwards all the data is hourly. The data consist of precipitation, discharge, potential evapotranspiration, other meteorological data and snow depths. The data has been extensively quality controlled and can be used for hydrological modelling or data analysis to understand the effects of forests on river flows.

This dataset contains data from a marine geophysical and multibeam survey which took place in April 2012 in the area of Ardmucknish Bay on board the RV White Ribbon. This was a follow up survey to the previous work carried out in this area in 2011 (2011/4). QICS (Quantifying and monitoring potential ecosystem impacts of geological carbon storage) was a scientific research project funded by NERC; its purpose was to improve the understanding of the sensitivities of the UK marine environment to a potential leak from a carbon capture storage (CCS) system. The aim of the survey was to assess any affect the drilling of the borehole had on the underlying sediments. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system. Sub bottom seismic profiling data were collected using an Applied Acoustics surface tow boomer (STB). Technical details of the survey are contained in the BGS Report of Survey.
