The Natural Environment Research Council  (NERC) Environmental Data Service (EDS) provides a focal point for NERC's scientific data and information.   The EDS consists of a network of environmental data centres.  These centres hold data covering all aspects of environmental science, gathered from environmental scientists working in the UK and around the world. The EDS are responsible for maintaining environmental data and making them available to all users, not just NERC researchers but others...

The Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) runs the UK's national data centre for atmospheric and earth observation research, hosting Petabytes of climate model, atmospheric observations and satellite data. 

The CEDA Archive forms part of NERC's Environmental Data Service (EDS) - a network of data centres covering all aspects of environmental science. The EDS provides a focal point for NERC's scientific data and information. We work with the other data centres to ensure that...

The MQADP is a research platform and infrastructure to enable research to improve children and young peoples’ mental health, by pooling data from multiple sources: linking routinely collected data (health, deprivation, social care) with clinical interviews, psychological, biological and genetic data. This resource will continue to expand in terms of size, nations covered, and breadth and depth of data, with continued linkage, recruitment and additional measures planned and be available for...

We provide a comprehensive Advanced Research Computing (ARC) support service for researchers in all faculties at the University of Leeds. The service consists of a large High Performance Computing (HPC or Supercomputing) resource consisting of several clusters which are used for all forms of predictive modelling, data analysis and simulation which are too large, too complex or too time consuming to be performed on a Desktop PC. In addition, we can support researchers in the use of Cloud...

ARCHER is the UK National Supercomputing Service. It allows researchers to run calculations and simulations that require a large number of processing cores working in parallel. The computer demands for such simulations far exceed the computer power typically available to an institution like ours (e.g. a local cluster). ARCHER allows us to run ocean and coupled ocean-atmosphere models that are at the cutting edge of the field. Generally, facilities like ARCHER enable the UK to be (and to remain)...

The Archives Hub brings together descriptions of thousands of the UK’s archive collections. Representing over 350 institutions across the country, it is an effective way to discover unique and often little-known sources to support research. New descriptions are added every week, often representing collections being made available for the first time. Researchers can use the Hub to instantly scan the archival landscape and bring together diverse sources held in repositories across the country. The...

The AMF was established in April 2014, following a review of NCAS’s ground-based facilities and the service they provided to the community. Its remit is threefold: (i) to deploy instrumentation and provide a quality-controlled data product for field measurements; (ii) to provide underpinning laboratory facilities for calibration and experimentation; and (iii) to provide access to NCAS field sites for guest instrumentation. In 2018, under the direction of NERC, AMF merged with its sister facility...

The set of AAAI (Authentication, Authorisation and Accounting Infrastructure) services operated by Jisc provides a national framework for the management of access to RII resources across the UK. This framework includes authentication of an individual user of a RII; authorisation of that user to access RII resources; and, where appropriate, accounting for that use for charging or for auditing purposes (for instance where there are compliance implications such as those around access to sensitive...

Hollin Hill Landslide Observatory, North Yorkshire At Hollin Hill a system of monitoring landslide movement has been developed by BGS by combining geomorphological mapping, terrestrial LiDAR and real-time monitoring with geophysics. Scientific research at this site has been designed to enable BGS to accurately monitor and eventually aid the forecasting of movement of the landslide. It brings together a combination of field surveying, geomorphological, geophysical, engineering and...

The Bodleian Libraries mission is to provide an excellent service to support the learning, teaching and research objectives of the University of Oxford; and to develop and maintain access to Oxford's unique collections for the benefit of scholarship and society. The Bodleian has been collecting material for more than 400 years and currently holds more than 12 million printed items, over 80,000 e-journals, and some 56,000 linear metres of outstanding special collections. These include rare books...
