The British Ocean Sediment Core Repository Facility (BOSCORF) at the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) is a globally-recognised institution that conducts critical palaeo-environmental research to help us understand and predict our rapidly changing climate. Locked within sedimentary cores are climate records that are crucial for modelling...
Geological research into paleoclimates, glacier dynamics, sub-marine landslides and sub-seafloor gases are just a few of the major research activities that go on at the Department of Geosciences at UiT the Arctic University of Norway. As these methods are dependent on the comprehensive analysis of...
Lacustrine, peat, ocean sediment and harder continental drill cores will all be analysed on the Geotek Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL-S) at the United States Geological Survey's (USGS) Florence Bascom Geoscience Center (FBGC). The MSCL forms a critical part of the analysis workflow by delivering non-destructive...
On 02 May 2019, our Geoscience Team Leader Briony Shreeve and Lead Geoscientist Josh Allin were invited to Durham University to host a core scanning workshop that demonstrated the capabilities of Geotek Ltd's Multi-Sensor Core Logger S-XZ XRF (MSCL-SXZ XRF) and Vertical X-ray CT systems...
The Department of Geological Sciences (IGV) at Stockholm University (SU) was established as the Geology and Mineralogy department in 1881. Today, the IGV is the leading centre of marine geological and geophysical research in Sweden, and is internationally recognised by its ongoing contributions to Arctic...
July 25th-31st this year, Geotek will be exhibiting in Dublin, Ireland, at the 20th INQUA Congress 2019, The Global Forum for Quaternary Science. The 20th INQUA Congress' theme "Life on the Edge" includes presentations and papers from the BRITICE-CHRONO project which Geotek have supported, applied...
In July 2018, the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) received their brand new Rotating X-ray CT system (RXCT) from Geotek Limited, ready for an impressive assortment of continental and marine science research. Most of the research conducted at AWI is performed on split or delicate core samples,...
Geotek are very much looking forward to attending and exhibiting as a Gold Sponsor at the International Paleolimnology Association and International Association of Limnology (IPA-IAL) 2018 conference, at Stockholm University, June 18th-21st. The conference will look to reveal historic details of lakes and applications for...
Geotek's X-ray systems allow science and industry to visualise a core's internal structures, and offer an insight to features in cores that may otherwise go undetected when simply describing from the split surface. Whether it be academic users examining the sedimentary record in oceans and lakes for climate...
All Multi-Sensor Core Loggers (MSCLs) are modular and therefore can be upgraded to include the latest sensor technology. The ability to upgrade an MSCL to the latest specifications ensures longevity of use and future-proofs the instrument, ensuring that high-quality data can continue to be collected automatically,...
