UK Geoenergy Observatories, Glasgow Environmental Baseline Surface Water Chemistry Dataset 1

This report accompanies the United Kingdom Geoenergy Observatories Glasgow Surface Water Chemistry Dataset_1. The dataset comprises chemical analysis of 98 (84 samples and 14 duplicates) surface water samples that were collected monthly between February 2019 and March 2020 from water bodies proximal to the Glasgow Observatory. This baseline dataset provides valuable information on surface water chemistry prior to the operation of the Observatory, against which any future change can be assessed. This information is necessary to help understand the Observatory hydrological-hydrogeological regime; and to help de-risk similar shallow geothermal schemes in the future, provide public reassurance, and inform sustainable energy policy.
