Northumberland County Council maintains this dataset of designated smoke control areas under the Clean Air Act. The data covers the former Wansbeck District, Blyth Valley Borough, and specific towns like Alnwick, Morpeth, and Pegswood. Last updated on 2026-06-22, it is provided via ArcGIS Online and OGC APIs under an OGL-UK-3.0 license.
Fifteen priority species, including the Northern Royal Albatross, were identified for a rapid information exploration related to the Gippsland offshore renewable energy declaration area. This record from the Australian Ocean Data Network describes the collated data inventory for the Northern Royal Albatross (Diomedea sanfordi). The project aimed to identify and evaluate publicly-available occurrence data for environmental and regulatory assessments.
Five long-term grassland-to-woodland land use contrasts across England were sampled between November 2018 and March 2019. The dataset contains soil chemical, physical, and biological properties measured for up to six layers between 0 and 100 cm depth, co-located with estimates of above-ground net primary productivity and earthworm counts. Derived metrics from bioinformatic processing of raw sequence files are also included.
During an eight-day period in 2014, soil gas and soil flux surveys were conducted at a research site in Qinghai, China, following a well-failure that caused a continuous CO2 leak. The dataset likely contains measurements from two different sampling patterns, including a regular grid and an irregular grid with higher density in high-flux zones, used to map leak distribution and estimate total emissions. The data was collected by researchers and published in the International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control in 2016.
Over 45 oil companies collaborated with the British Geological Survey and the UK North Sea Transition Authority to evaluate overlooked hydrocarbon potential. This multidisciplinary study integrates seismic, well, and gravity interpretations with burial, uplift, and maturity modelling for Carboniferous and Devonian plays. Results were published under the Open Government License in March 2017 and are accessible via the BGS Offshore GeoIndex.
Geoscience Australia's systematic evaluation targets the shale gas and oil potential of the ~325,000 sq. km Georgina Basin. The assessment relies on updated stratigraphy, tectonic history, petrography, and petroleum systems modeling, with a focus on geochemistry. For example, a 'hot shale' unit has TOC and HI up to 15.5% and 500 mg hydrocarbons/g TOC, respectively, with maturity ranging from early oil to early dry gas windows.
Fifteen priority species, including 12 birds and 3 cetaceans, are the focus of this data inventory compiled for the Gippsland offshore renewable energy declaration area. The Australian Ocean Data Network project identified publicly-available occurrence data sources for species like the Blue Whale and Orange-bellied Parrot, which are listed as critically endangered or endangered. This work supports assessments for the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water and the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environment Authority.
20201215_SoilT_monthtlyVals_Sampled_gapfilled.csv and 20201215_SoilTemp_monthly_cleaned.csv contain temperature logger locations with sampled covariate data and observations. The collection includes code for mapping pipelines, spatial assessments, and bioclimatic variable calculations at 0-5cm and 5-15cm soil depths. Data and scripts from ETH Zurich support the reproduction of soil offset maps and uncertainty analyses.
120 oil samples from offshore Western Australia were analyzed using ultraviolet fluorescence spectroscopy with a 266 nm excitation wavelength. The Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO) produced this data to enable correlation between airborne laser fluorosensor survey anomalies and known petroleum systems. This report concludes the first stage of a multi-client 'remote sensing' study and is designed as a standalone product.
Geoscience Australia and partners prepared an extended abstract and presentation for the APPEA Conference & Exhibition 2013. The text describes the history of Australia's petroleum exploration, shifting from onshore Paleozoic basins to offshore Mesozoic basins and back to onshore for shale and tight gas potential. The work cites specific discoveries like the Mereenie oil field and notes the onshore exploration license area nearly doubled from 2010 to 2012.
Matteo De Felice's dataset provides weekly hydropower inflow for storage plants and daily run-of-river generation across 27 European countries. It is derived from river discharge data from the European Flood Awareness System (EFAS) and the JRC Hydropower Database. The dataset is distributed as a Tabular Data Package with accompanying Python scripts for data extraction.
Six sites contributed chemical shift-encoded MRI data of a phantom containing 11 vials with fat concentrations from 0% to 100%. The data was acquired using different MRI vendors and two field strengths (1.5T and 3T) between October 2014 and December 2015 to validate proton-density fat-fraction quantification techniques. Diego Hernando from the University of Wisconsin–Madison submitted the accompanying manuscript for publication in January 2016.
A multi-disciplinary study integrating sequence stratigraphy, palaeogeography, and geochemistry has mapped Jurassic to earliest Cretaceous source rocks in the Browse Basin. This analysis from the Australian Ocean Data Network provides insights into the source contributions and charge history for major gas and condensate resources, including the Ichthys and Prelude fields. The study delineates the spatial and temporal distribution of organic-rich rocks within specific supersequences and formations.
Qinghai, China, hosts a research site where a shallow CO2 reservoir leak was studied. The dataset likely contains soil gas and soil flux survey data collected over an eight-day period in 2014 to characterize the leak's distribution, magnitude, and source. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and relates to a 2016 research paper on monitoring techniques for geological CO2 storage.
Leeds City Council's energy consumption data covers electricity and gas usage across its operational sites, including buildings and street lighting. The dataset includes associated costs and carbon dioxide implications, with data available from the 2013/14 financial year. It provides insight into public sector energy management and environmental policy implementation.
6,862 soil samples were collected across Northern Ireland between 2004 and 2006 by the Geological Survey of Northern Ireland and the British Geological Survey. Sampling followed the G-BASE protocol at an average density of one site per 2 square kilometers, with samples taken at depths of 20 cm and 50 cm. The dataset provides a regional geochemical baseline for rural soils.
96 individual specimens of waxy bitumen were collected from beaches in South Australia and western Victoria and analyzed geochemically. The study, published via the Australian Ocean Data Network, identifies at least five distinct oil families with origins likely in Southeast Asia. Analysis suggests these strandings are carried into Australian waters by the Leeuwin Current.
A national system of marine protected areas (MPAs) was designed for implementation by 2012 under the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act 1999. Geoscience Australia compiled biophysical seabed information, including bathymetry and sediment properties, to create 'seascape' maps predicting biodiversity distribution across Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone. This information provides 100% spatial coverage based on multivariate statistical methods.
Australian petroleum systems from the Ordovician to Early Cretaceous are analyzed for terrestrial geochemical signals. The study compares four systems with source rocks deposited in marine environments containing varying terrestrial organic matter contributions. The data is provided as a PDF document from the Australian Ocean Data Network, last updated in 2026.
Geoscience Australia's national-scale database captures raw organic geochemistry, petrology, and stable isotope data for Australian source rocks, crude oils, and natural gases. The collection includes analytical results from industry submissions under legislative requirements and research projects, compiled into the ORGCHEM and Petroleum Systems Summary databases. These data support evidence-based decision-making for sediment-hosted energy resources across the Australian continent.
