Surface and Meteorological Data of Protodune Dynamics at Brancaster Beach, UK on 12th August 2016 (NERC Grant NE/R010196/1)

This dataset includes raw point cloud data from repeat terrestrial laser scans (TLS) for a field of protodunes that developed on Brancaster Beach over a three hour period. As well as the TLS data,...

Nanoindentation, high-angular resolution electron backscatter diffraction (HR-EBSD), and transmission electron microscopy data in synthetic forsterite bicrystal samples (NERC Grant NE/S00162X/1)

The data are nanoindentation, high-angular resolution electron backscatter diffraction (HR-EBSD), and transmission electron microscopy data collected on samples of synthetic forsterite bicrystals...

Experimental friction data for different grain size quartz gouges under different effective normal stresses (NERC Grant NE/P002943/1)

The data are from a suite of friction experiments performed on 3 different grain size quartz gouges (5, 15 and 30 microns). The quartz gouge layers were sheared under a range of effective normal...

Microstructural measurements of mafic igneous rocks (NERC Grant NE/N009894/1)

Measurements of the shape and size of plagioclase and olivine grains in a suite of dolerite dykes and sills. The olivine data refer to the family of sills forming the Little Minch Sill Complex...

Species point records from 1982 MBA Isles of Scilly littoral sediment survey

This report is the result of a brief visit to the Isles of Scilly in September 1982 when surveys were made of sediment shores between Tresco and St Martin's and of the shore at Porth Hellick, St...

Habitat point records from 1982 MBA Isles of Scilly littoral sediment survey

This report is the result of a brief visit to the Isles of Scilly in September 1982 when surveys were made of sediment shores between Tresco and St Martin's and of the shore at Porth Hellick, St...

Leading linear growth rates for steady uniform morphodynamic overland flows at different Froude numbers and grain diameters (NERC Grant NE/S00274X/1)

Shallow overland flows in steady state can become unstable and break up into destructive surges. The following data documents maximum growth rates for disturbances to uniform steady flows on a...

Sediment records of the 2016-2017 flood from Notwane dam, Upper Limpopo basin, Botswana

The data set contains grain size distributions, organic matter (OM) contents and trace metals distribution metal distribution (Fe, Zn, Cu, Cr and Pb) of seven (7) shallow cores of sediments from...
