Effect of porosity and clays on geophysical and transport properties of sandstone exposed to CO2 injection: Influence of rock heterogeneities on CO2 storage monitoring

Falcon-Suarez, Ismael | Mondol, Nazmul Haque

2024

This dataset gathers the data collected during a brine:CO2 flow-through experiments conducted on three sandstones with similar mineralogical compositions (major minerals) but different porosity, clay-size fraction and clay mineralogy. The aim was to study the effect of such heterogeneities on...

210Pb-dated historical lake sediment metal concentrations from The Lake District, England (mid-19th century to 2016)

Turner, S.D. | Yang, H. | Rose, N.L. | Shilland, J. | Bennion, H. | Jones, V. | Sayer, C. | Baker, A. | Roberts, C. | Bishop, I.

2022

Measurements of sediment properties (incl. organic and carbonate content), radionuclides (210Pb, 137Cs, 241Am) and elements (including mercury, nickel, copper, zinc, and lead) in lake sediment successions. Radionuclide dating provides a reliable chronology of sediment ages from the mid-19th...

Triaxial compressive strength tests on 'Comiso' Limestone (Ragusa Formation; Sicily, Italy) samples

2023

This dataset contains raw experimental triaxial testing data as outlined in "Castagna, A., Ougier‐Simonin, A., Benson, P. M., Browning, J., Walker, R. J., Fazio, M., & Vinciguerra, S. (2018). Thermal damage and pore pressure effects of the Brittle‐Ductile transition in Comiso limestone....

Filter pack and cascade impactor samples of gas and aerosol particulate matter on the Island of Hawai'i (2018, 2019)

Ilyinskaya, Evgenia | Mason, Emily | Wieser, Penny | Liu, Emma | Whitty, Rachel

2021

This dataset reports chemical speciation of airborne gas and aerosol particulate matter (PM) sampled in various locations on the Island of Hawai'i in 2018 and 2019. The 2018 samples were collected during a large eruption of Kilauea volcano. The 2019 samples were collected during a period of...

Natural radionuclide concentrations in soil, water, sediment and biota in England and Wales

Beresford, N.A. | Barnett, C.L. | Jones, D.G. | Wood, M.D. | Appleton, J.D. | Breward, N. | Copplestone, D.

2015

Data comprise estimates of activity concentrations of naturally occurring radionuclides (40K, 238U and 232Th series radionuclides) in environmental media (soil and stream sediments and waters) and non-human biota (focusing on the ICRP Reference Animals and Plants). For soil, stream sediments...

Zircon U-Pb data for plutonic rocks from IODP Hole 1256D, eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean

Lissenberg, Johan | Condon, Daniel | Smye, Andrew | Anma, Ryo

2023

Zircon U-Pb data are presented for six plutonic rocks recovered from the Pacific oceanic crust (IODP Hole 1256D). These data constrain the age of the section, as well as the duration of crustal accretion. The data cover the bulk of the plutonic section recovered and were generated during...

Stoer Group and Sibley Group nitrogen geochemistry in red beds

Stüeken, Eva E. | Fralick, Philip | Prave, Anthony R.

2024

Nitrogen abundances in red shales are shown to be suitable as a biosignature that may be applicable to red beds on Mars. The data set includes organic carbon and nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios, carbonate carbon and oxygen isotope ratios, and metal abundances. We evaluate potential...

40Ar/39Ar geochronology of basaltic samples from Bruce Bank and Jane Bank of the Scotia Sea

Riley, Teal

2023

The datasets refer to the dating of three basaltic samples collected from Bruce Bank and Jane Bank in the southern Scotia Sea. The samples were dredged from depths between 850 -1900 m from steep scrap slopes at two locations (DR.225: 59.927 degrees S, 39.154 degrees W; DR.84: 62.468 degrees...

Triaxial compressive strength data of tests conducted at elevated temperature on hydrothermalised basalt samples from Osa Peninsula (Costa Rica) and oceanic crust basalt from Cocos Plate

Ougier-Simonin, Audrey | Clarke, Alex

2023

This dataset contains raw (clean but not interpreted) triaxial compressive strength data of tests conductive at elevated pressure and temperature as outlined in "Vannucchi, P., Clarke, A., de Montserrat, A., Ougier-Simonin, A., Aldega, L., & Morgan, J. P. (2022). A strength inversion origin...
