Download or read book Geology of the Country Around Newtownards written by R. A. Smith and published by Bernan Press(PA). This book was released on 1991 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed insight into the geology of this part of County Down surrounding Newtownards, including east Belfast and the Northern parts of Strangford Lough and the Ards peninsula. The book looks at the geology displayed in the quarries in Scrabo Country Park where the sandstones of the Triassic Sherwood Sandstone Group are intruded by Tertiary dolerite sills. The folded and faulted Ordovician and Silurian rocks, well exposed in the sea coast section on the east side of the Ards peninsula have been interpreted in terms of a plate tectonic model. Features which owe their origin to the Quaternary ice sheets include drowned drumlins and raised beaches, which are all explored in this book.

Download or read book Geological Hazards in the UK written by D.P. Giles and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UK is perhaps unique globally in that it presents the full spectrum of geological time, stratigraphy and associated lithologies within its boundaries. With this wide range of geological assemblages comes a wide range of geological hazards, whether they be geophysical (earthquakes, effects of volcanic eruptions, tsunami, landslides), geotechnical (collapsible, compressible, liquefiable, shearing, swelling and shrinking soils), geochemical (dissolution, radon and methane gas hazards) or georesource related (coal, chalk and other mineral extraction). An awareness of these hazards and the risks that they pose is a key requirement of the engineering geologist. The Geological Society considered that a Working Party Report would help to put the study and assessment of geohazards into the wider social context, helping the engineering geologist to better communicate the issues concerning geohazards in the UK to the client and the public. This volume sets out to define and explain these geohazards, to detail their detection, monitoring and management and to provide a basis for further research and understanding.

Download or read book Geology of the Rhins of Galloway District written by P. Stone and published by Stationery Office Books (TSO). This book was released on 1995 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rhins of Galloway district lies in the south-west of Scotland and marks the termination of the Southern Uplands against the North Channel. This memoir and the accompanying 1:50 000 solid geology map provide detailed subdivision of the Ordovician and Silurian turbidite strata. The conclusions are of significance to the Southern Uplands terrane as a whole and also to its equivalents in Ireland and maritime Canada. Other major sections of the memoir discuss the syn- and post-tectonic intrusive rocks, the development of the late Palaeozoic Stranraer half-graben and the regional structural framework as deduced from geophysical data.

Book excerpt: &Quot;This Report is revised and expanded from the 1972 publication, providing an up-to-the-minute account of the British Ordovician formations and their correlation nationally and internationally. It also includes the most comprehensive treatment of Ireland ever attempted. The reference list is a comprehensive bibliography of papers on the subject published since 1970.". "This Special Report will be a valuable reference for research and applied geoscientists working with rocks of Ordovician age. It will be of particular interest to those working in, or visiting, the Welsh mountains and the English Lake District."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Underground Gas Storage written by D. J. Evans and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2009 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UK became a net importer of natural gas in 2004 and by 2020 will import up to 90% of its requirements, leaving it vulnerable to increasing energy bills and risk of disruption to supply. New pipelines to Europe and improvements to interconnectors will meet some demand, but Government recognises the need for increased gas storage capacity: best met by the construction of underground storage facilities. Energy security has also raised the likelihood of a new generation of coal-fired power-stations, which to be environmentally viable, will require clean-coal technologies with near-zero greenhouse gas emissions. A key element of this strategy will be underground CO2 storage. This volume reviews the technologies and issues involved in the underground storage of natural gas and CO2, with examples from the UK and overseas. The potential for underground storage of other gases such as hydrogen, or compressed air linked to renewable sources is also reviewed.
