Three British Geological Survey ground gas surveys conducted in August 2018, May 2019, and October 2019 at the UKGEOS Glasgow site. Measurements include CH4 and CO2 flux, along with concentrations of CO2, O2, H2, H2S, and residual balance in near-surface gas from up to 83 point locations across four predetermined areas.
Use Cases
- Analyze spatial and temporal variations in CH4 and CO2 flux across the four survey locations to assess geothermal site emissions.
- Model relationships between near-surface gas concentrations of CO2, O2, H2, and H2S measured at approximately 70 cm depth.
- Correlate residual balance gas measurements with seasonal survey dates (August 2018, May 2019, October 2019) for environmental monitoring.
Strengths
- Data from three distinct survey campaigns across multiple seasons (2018-2019) provides temporal context.
- Measurements taken at up to 83 point locations across four predetermined areas offer spatial granularity.
- Includes multiple gas species (CH4, CO2, O2, H2, H2S) and flux measurements for multi-variable analysis.
Limitations
- Sample size is limited to point measurements from a single geographic site, restricting generalizability.
- Unknown row count and column structure limit assessment of dataset scale and feature completeness.
- Data is specific to shallow-depth soil gas surveys, not representative of deeper geothermal processes.
