The dataset contains aeromagnetic measurements acquired during 1993–1996 in East and North-East Greenland as part of the AWI-AEROMAG project conducted by the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI). The measurements represent regional airborne magnetometry and include total magnetic field intensity corrected for diurnal variations and the main geomagnetic field. The survey was carried out to support geological mapping and tectonic analysis of eastern Greenland. The dataset constitutes an important geophysical reference for studies of crystalline basement rocks, sedimentary basins and structural features in the region.

The dataset contains geochemical analytical results for 725 heavy mineral concentrate samples collected by GEUS in Greenland as part of various geological mapping and mineral exploration activities. The samples originate from several campaigns, including a regional campaign conducted between 1982 and 1986 in the Nuuk area, a 1991 campaign in the southern Nuuk region, and samples collected in 2003 in the Qaanaaq region. Additional samples derive from smaller projects and campaigns with limited documentation. Analyses were carried out at different laboratories, including Activation Laboratories and Bondar-Clegg in Canada and Risø National Laboratory in Denmark. The dataset contains raw analytical results, and metadata concerning sampling procedures and analytical quality are not complete for all samples.

The dataset comprises a geological map of the Danish Basin at a scale of 1:400,000 presenting regional thematic maps of the Base Chalk and the Chalk Group. The map was published in 1993 as part of the DGU Map Series no. 29 and was produced as part of regional geological mapping of the basin. The mapping is based on interpretation of seismic data supplemented by information from deep onshore and offshore boreholes. The dataset consists of several thematic sub-maps that together show the depth to the Base Chalk and the vertical thickness (isochore) of the Chalk Group. The map covers the Danish Basin and adjacent areas and was produced to support regional structural and stratigraphic interpretation.

The North Atlantic current (red arrows) originates in the hot and salty Gulf Stream which flows out of the Mexican gulf and follows the east coast of the USA. When this current leaves the continental shelf and moves across the North Atlantic itâs often called the North Atlantic current. The North Atlantic current provides a significant amount of heat transport to northern Europe. This heat transport is greatest in winter because the current velocity is greater in that part of the year. The North Atlantic current keeps a very constant temperature and salinity throughout the year. It gradually looses heat and salinity as it flows towards the north east and gets mixed with colder and less salty water. At the south western part of the map where the current leaves the American continental shelf the surface temperature is 15-20 oC and the salinity is approximately 36. When it reaches the inlet to the Barents Sea the surface temperature is reduced to 5 oC in the winter and 10 oC in the summer, while the salinity stays at 35 throughout the year.The North Atlantic current continues into the Polar seas through the Fram Strait west of Svalbard and into the Barents Sea (pink arrows). When it reaches these areas its quickly chilled to 2-3 oC and the salinity sinks towards 34.7.The cooling of the North Atlantic current happens when it comes into contact with the colder and less salty Arctic current (blue arrows) that flows south west towards Svalbardâs east coast, south out of the Fram Strait and south out of the Davids Strait between Greenland and Canada. This current has salinity below 34 and the temperature is between -2 oC and +2 oC. In the same way as the North Atlantic current cools on the way north east the Arctic current heats up on its way towards the south west. The Arctic current does however give a significant colder climate around the coast of Greenland and along the Canadian Labrador- and Newfoundland-coasts compared to Europe coasts.Close to the coasts both on the eastern and western side of the North Atlantic there are lighter coastal currents with salinity between 25 and 34 (green arrows). In these areas both the temperature and salinity varies greatly throughout the season. They are warmer then the North Atlantic current during the summer and colder during the winter. In the same way the salinity varies greatly throughout the year because of the varying freshwater runoffs from land.

The dataset comprises geological, hydrogeological and thermal data related to shallow geothermal energy and ground source heat pump systems in Denmark. The data were produced within the GeoEnergy project, a Danish national research project supported by the Danish Energy Agency and focusing on the use of ground source heating based on borehole heat exchangers and heat pumps. The dataset includes measurements of temperature gradients, thermal properties of soils and sediments, and analyses of geological and hydrogeological conditions. Data have been used for modelling heat and groundwater flow and for developing tools and guidelines for planning, design and installation of ground source heating systems.

The dataset shows global bathymetry based on The General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) 2019. The dataset represents a continuous model of seafloor topography derived from a combination of multibeam, singlebeam and satellite altimetry data. The original global grid has been reprojected to UTM zone 24N to support regional use and integration with other geological and geophysical datasets covering Greenland and the North Atlantic.
