  • The dataset provides raster gridded estimates of open water and inundated vegetation for the Barotseland Region in Western Zambia. There are a total of 55 images covering the period 2016-2019 at a spatial resolution of 10m. The images were generated using an automatic classification routine applied to Sentinel-1 radar imagery, with classification refinements made using ancillary datasets such as the Global Urban Footprint, and the Height Above Nearest Drainage terrain derivative generated using SRTM digital elevation data. These data are valuable for a range of applications including public health and water resources. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/4ef558d2-05d4-4ae2-988e-a5c2450b95dd

  • These are digital optical televiewer logs of two boreholes drilled by hot water to 120 m (Site 1) and 160 m (Site 2) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. Boreholes were drilled in December 2022 to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

  • This is an electric log of a borehole drilled by hot water to 120 m (Site 1) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. The borehole was drilled in December 2022 to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

  • This is a sonic log of a borehole drilled by hot water to 120 m (Site 1) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. The borehole was drilled in December 2022 to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

  • The datasets are temperature time series from fibre-optic strings installed into two boreholes on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula. Boreholes were drilled in December 2022 to 160 m to investigate the internal properties of a suture zone (Site 1) and a meteoric ice band (Site 2) of an ice shelf, as part of the NERC-funded RiPIce (Rift Propagation for Ice sheet models) research project. NERC standard grant NE/T008016/1.

  • 2014 and 2016 time series of basal multiprobe data (Dataset 1), englacial temperature data (Dataset 2), and englacial tilt data (Dataset 3) measured in boreholes drilled at the location of the SAFIRE research project, Store Glacier, Greenland.

  • 2014 and 2016 time series of automatic weather station (AWS) data (Dataset 1) and (ii) GPS data (Dataset 2) at the location of the SAFIRE research project, Store Glacier, Greenland.

  • The dataset encompasses the processed point clouds (.pts format), a panoramic tour, and a video flythrough of registered point clouds capturing a 122 m long reach of an englacial cut-and-closure channel in the glacier, Austre Broggerbreen, Svalbard, in March 2016. Point clouds were derived from 28 Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) surveys, to characterise the morphology of the channel in three-dimensions and enable extraction of features reflective of hydrological flow conditions. The panoramic tour shows a greyscale image of the scan reflectivity values at each survey location, whereby the lighter the pixel colour, the greater the intensity of the laser beam return. This panoramic tour enables the viewer to self-navigate through the channel to see the morphological features within it. The video flythrough of the point cloud provides a visualisation of the point cloud data, travelling from the glacier surface, down the moulin and along the extent of the scanned reach. The point cloud has been coloured to reflect differences in height. Funding source Knowledge Economy Skills Scholarship (KESS II) under Project AU10003, a pan-Wales higher-level skills initiative led by Bangor University of behalf of the HE sector in Wales. It is part funded by the Welsh Government's European Social Fund (ESF) convergence programme for West Wales and the Valleys. Funding was awarded to TDLI-F and JEK, with support from Deri Jones & Associates Ltd. Additional support is acknowledged from Aberystwyth University (Department of Geography and Earth Sciences).

  • The datasets are basal probe sensor time series measuring suspended sediment concentration, water pressure, electrical conductivity and temperature. Each sensor was located at a discrete depth within one of six boreholes into Khumbu Glacier, Nepal. Boreholes were drilled in May 2017 and 2018 to investigate the internal properties of Khumbu Glacier, specifically ice thickness, temperature, deformation and structure, as part of the NERC-funded 'EverDrill' research project. Supporting borehole information is provided as a related dataset. Funding was provided by the NERC grant NE/P00265X/1 and NE/P002021/1. ***** PLEASE BE ADVISED TO USE VERSION 2.0 DATA ***** The VERSION 2.0 data set (see 'Related Data Set Metadata' link below) which contains an additional 10 months of measurements.

  • The datasets are ice tilt time series from strings of accelerometers, each located at a discrete depth within one of three boreholes into Khumbu Glacier, Nepal. Ice deformation can be derived from this tilt data, but has not yet been calculated. Boreholes were drilled in May 2017 and 2018 to investigate the internal properties of Khumbu Glacier, specifically ice thickness, temperature, deformation and structure, as part of the NERC-funded 'EverDrill' research project. Supporting borehole information is provided as a related dataset. Funding was provided by the NERC grant NE/P00265X/1 and NE/P002021/1. ***** PLEASE BE ADVISED TO USE VERSION 2.0 DATA ***** The VERSION 2.0 data set (see 'Related Data Set Metadata' link below) which contains an additional 11 months of measurements.
