(Whitby.). High resolution seismic data from the Dogger Bank in the central southern North Sea has revealed that the Dogger Bank Formation records a complex history of sedimentation and penecontemporaneous, large-scale, ice-marginal to proglacial glacitectonic deformation. Until the middle Pleistocene, Great Britain was a peninsula of Europe, connected by the massive chalk Weald–Artois Anticline across the Straits of Dover. Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, Vol. About us; Report back; Contact; FAQ; News; Dutch; English [2] The water depth ranges from 15 to 36 metres (50 to 120 ft), about 20 metres (65 ft) shallower than the surrounding sea. A Greenpeace spokesperson said "how can you continue to allow bottom trawlers to plough the seabed in a protected area?

The Blea Wyke Sandstone Formation (Jurassic, Toarcian) of Rosedale, North Yorkshire, UK. Dogger Bank (Dutch: Doggersbank, German: Doggerbank, Danish: Doggerbanke) is a large sandbank in a shallow area of the North Sea about 100 kilometres (62 mi) off the east coast of England. Rastall, R H and Hemingway, J E. 1941. 1992. Lott, G K and Knox, R W O'B. 50, 129-142. The bank is non-vegetated and comprises moderately mobile, clean sandy sediments. Hemingway, J E and Knox, R W O'B. Marked by an abrupt upward transition from ferruginous sandstone, ironstone or limestone at the top of the Dogger Formation to cross-stratified, non-bioturbated sandstone, siltstone and mudstone (commonly with plant fragments) of the overlying Saltwick Formation (Ravenscar Group). Grey, fissile mudstone of the Alum Shale Member, Whitby Mudstone Formation (Lias Group) is overlain by yellow-brown, bioturbated, ferruginous sandstone with occasional berthierine (chamosite) ooids and phosphatized pebbles that comprise the Dogger Formation (0.75 to 1.5m thick).

Linklaters has advised on the construction, development and £5.5 billion project financing of the Dogger Bank A and Dogger Bank B phases of the Dogger Bank Wind Farm, owned by SSE Renewables and Equinor New Energy. The Development, to which this Application relates, comprises the formation of a construction access to the site of the Dogger Bank C Wind Farm and Sofia Offshore Wind Farm (The Projects) Onshore Converter Stations (OCSs), awarded consent by the Dogger Bank Teesside A & B Offshore Wind Farm Order 2015 (as amended) (The DCO). The Micropalaeontological Society, Special Publications. Lithostratigraphy and depositional history of the late Toarcian sequence at Ravenscar, Yorkshire. The Dogger Bank Formation is here subdivided into three informal seismostratigraphic units, termed the “Basal”, “Older” and “Younger” Dogger Bank, based on the geotechnical responses combined with lateral extent of significant seismic reflections. The uplands, comprising the current Dogger Bank, would probably have been cut off , forming Dogger Island, which survived for approximately another millennium. Dogger Bank Creyke Beck Environmental Statement Chapter 1 – Introduction Contract No. In the Whitby area and coastal sections to the southeast, the formation consists mainly of grey, weathering yellow-brown, sideritic sandstone, medium- to coarse-grained, with sporadic phosphatic pebbles; berthierine (chamosite) ooids may be present. 158-164 in Scrutton, C T and Powell, J H (eds), Yorkshire Rocks and Landscapes - A Field Guide, 3rd Edition, Yorkshire Geological Society. Memoir of the British Geological Survey, Sheet 52 (England and Wales). These indicate that the substratum of the Dogger Bank consists of moraine ridges belonging presumably to the Weichsel glaciation, the last Pleistocene glaciation. Knox, R W O'B, Howard, A S, Powell, J H and van Buchem, F S P. 1991. Battle of Dogger Bank, naval engagement between British and German battle cruisers during World War I. The British, Dutch and German sectors of the Dogger Bank are all protected as a Special Area of Conservation under the EU Habitats Directive for the rich fauna they contain – which includes worms, crabs, clams, small flatfish and brittle stars, which form a food source for fish and other wildlife. The bank is an important fishing area, with cod and herring being caught in large numbers. Geology of the country around Thirsk. South of Dogger Bank is the Cleaver Bank. [citation needed]. At the lower boundary, sand-filled burrows extend downwards from the Dogger Formation to the underlying mudstone. Dogger Bank Formation. May be absent, locally, due to erosion prior to deposition of the overlying Saltwick Formation (Ravenscar Group). The Dogger Bank Creyke Beck project includes the joint development of two 1.2GW offshore wind farms in the North Sea. The Blea Wyke Beds and the Dogger in north-east Yorkshire. The 1931 Dogger Bank earthquake took place below the bank, measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale and was the largest earthquake ever recorded in the United Kingdom. The Dogger Bank Wind Farm will be the largest offshore wind farm in the world, once all three phases are complete in 2026. Many explainations of salt domes suggest that the lower density of salt, compared to the density of overlying rock units, is the driving force of salt dome formation. The action undertaken by Greenpeace had support from some of those in the fishing trade.

The result was a British victory, and the German navy delayed further significant action against the British fleet for more than a year. It has long been known by fishermen to be a productive fishing bank; it was named after the doggers, medieval Dutch fishing boats especially used for catching cod. The base of the overlying Saltwick Formation is marked by black, carbonaceous clay, passing up to yellow sandstone. Reference Section : A crag at Yew Grain [NZ 717 018] near Great Fryup, Upper Eskdale, reported in Rastall and Hemingway (1943, p.219) is typical of the ironstone and sandstone lithofacies. Dogger 1993. Originally projected to develop up to 9 gigawatts of power as part of a planned nine zone project of 32 gigawatts, the plan was later scaled down to a 7.2-gigawatt installation in agreement with the area's owner Crown Estates. Lithostratigraphical nomenclature of the Middle Jurassic strata of the Yorkshire Basin of north-east England. GEOLOGY OF THE DOGGER BANK AREA, NORTH SEA H. J. VEENSTRA Geological Institute, State University, Groningen (The Netherlands) (Received.lanuary15, 1965) SUMMARY A sediment survey carried out on board H.M.S. A large part of the southern area of the bank is covered by water seldom deeper than 20 m below chart datum. Highly variable and heterolithic with substantial lateral interdigitation and lithofacies changes. [9], In January 2010, a licence to develop a wind farm on Dogger Bank was granted to Forewind Ltd, a consortium of developers. SSE and Statoil have confirmed the formation of a Joint Venture (JV) partnership to work collaboratively to progress three of the four consented Dogger Bank offshore wind projects towards Financial Investment Decisions. Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society, London, Vol.61, 441-460. Butler, N, Charnock, M A, Hager, K O and Watkins, C A. The Yorkshire Coast. Geological Magazine, Vol.78, 351-370.

At the time of deposition, clastic sediments above the salt are uncompacted, contain siginficant pore space, and have a lower density than the salt. Thought locally to attain 29 m in the Rosedale area [SE 729 946] (Hemingway, 1974, p. 188), although Young, T P (1994) regards much of this strata as belonging to the underlying Blea Wyke Sandstone Formation in which case the Dogger Formation here is up to about 8 m thick. The projects Dogger Bank Wind Farm is an offshore wind farm being developed in three phases – Dogger Bank A, Dogger Bank B and Dogger Bank C – located between 130km and 190km from the North East coast of England at their nearest points. Across most of the Cleveland Basin, the lower boundary is generally sharp, disconformable or unconformable on the gently folded Lower Jurassic Lias Group, marked by an abrupt change where grey fissile mudstone of the Lower Jurassic Whitby Mudstone Formation is overlain by sandstone, ironstone or limestone of the Dogger Formation. 7. Hoofdnavigatie. Jurassic of the Central and Northern North Sea. The Yorkshire Dogger III. Explanation 66pp. 2nd Edition, 117pp. Its hypocentre was 23 kilometres (14 mi) beneath the bank, and the quake was felt in countries all around the North Sea, causing damage across eastern England. The habitat comprises distinct banks (i.e. It is a large sand bank named after an old type of Dutch fishing boats called “Doggers”, and has for centuries been a productive fishing bank (Britannica, 2017). Rastall, R H. 1905. Upper Eskdale. The Dogger Bank was selected for offshore wind farms because it is far away from shore, avoiding complaints about the visual impact of wind turbines, yet the water is shallow enough for traditional fixed foundation wind turbine designs. Fluid and Rock Processes Laboratory Cluster, Rock Volume Characterisation Laboratory Cluster, Integrated resource management in Eastern Africa, Donations and loans of materials collections. The bank was part of a large landmass, now known as Doggerland, which connected Britain to the European mainland until it was flooded some time after the end of the last glacial period. The broader landscape became increasingly fragmented by the formation of estuaries, inlets and islands (Gearey et al. Dogger Bank is an important habitat for crabs, brittlestar starfish, jellyfish, clams, plaice, sole and sand eels. Subsurface data. In this study, our aim is to describe in detail the timing and processes of formation of channel networks observed in the seismic reflection data using stratigraphic relationships, alongside palaeoclimate model simulations, to identify changes in temperature and precipitation at Dogger Bank. Rastall, R H and Hemingway, J E. 1949. This is the largest single continuous expanse of shallow sandbank in the UK and was formed by glacial processes, before being submerged through sea level rise. Rapid local lateral variation is illustrated by the absence of the basal pebble bed and overlying bioturbated sandstone bed at the nearby Yew Grain section [NZ 7172 0185] reported by Young, T P (1994, fig.3). Grey fine-grained sandstone and, locally, siderite mudstone of the Whitby Mudstone Formation is overlain sharply by a thin phosphatic pebble bed that marks the base of the Dogger Formation, and which passes up to blue-grey, bioturbated sandstone (1.07m), black mudstone (0.61m) and green siltstone (0.15m) ("Danby Facies") that are, in turn, overlain by green-grey, fine-grained sandstone (0.91m) and black to grey chamosite ooidal ironstone (3.96m), with a siderite matrix ("Ajalon facies"). Powell, J H, Cooper, A H C and Benfield, A C. 1992. The researchers’ paper explains “The broader landscape became increasingly fragmented by the formation of estuaries, inlets, and islands. It was fought near Dogger Bank in the North Sea on January 24, 1915. 1994. Several shipwrecks lie on the bank. The seafloor of the North Sea preserved many artifacts of Mesolithic people, including perfect sets of footprints left by the nomadic tribes, some containing up to 39 perfectly preserved prints. [2] At differing times during the last glacial period it was either joined to the mainland or an island. Rawson, P F and Wright, J K (eds). At the beginning of the 21st century the area was identified as a potential site for a UK round 3 wind farm, being developed as Dogger Bank Wind Farm. Status: Designated. Whyte, M A and Romano, M. 2006. The Dogger Bank is the largest single continuous expanse of shallow sandbank in UK waters. Any in Geologic Time (1) Journal. Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, Vol. Offshore, the Dogger Formation is equivalent, in part, to the Wroot Formation (Lott and Knox,1994) in the southern North Sea and in part to the Drake Formation in the Brent Province (Butler et al., 2005). Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, Vol.39, 527-535. Black oolites in the Dogger of north-east Yorkshire.

Dogger Bank has been identified as an oceanic environment that exhibits high primary productivity throughout the year in the form of phytoplankton. However, the best exposed and familiar sections are those in the ferruginous sandstone and ironstone lithofacies located near Whitby on the Yorkshire coast. Lower-Middle Jurassic sequences between Whitby and Saltwick. elongated, rounded or irregular ‘mound’ shapes) which may arise from horizontal or sloping plains of sandy sediment. Dogger Bank Special Area of Conservation shown in red. In addition, partings, lenses and beds of grey, fossiliferous fissile mudstone may occur, and south-west of Malton, a distinctive iron-rich pebbly medium-grained sandstone facies is locally developed. This section is less accessible than the coastal Type Section, but it provides an example of the mixed ironstone and sandstone lithofacies typical of the Eskdale area. Marine Geol., 3 (1965) 245-262 256 H.J. Dogger Bank is set to be the largest wind farm in the world with a combined capacity of 3.6GW. The Dogger Formation occurs as variable lithofacies across the Cleveland Basin from the Yorkshire Coast, near Whitby [NZ 480 500] to the Hambleton Hills [SE 496 827] and Howardian Hills [SE 600 600]. Black, M. 1934. The Dogger Bank wind farms located in the North Sea,UK, will comprise three 1.2GW offshore wind farms namely, Creyke Beck A, Creyke Beck B, and Teesside A. Dogger Bank wind farms, a 50:50 joint venture (JV) between SSE Renewables and Equinor, is developing the 3.6GW project, which is set to be the world’s biggest offshore wind farm. 2).

"Luymes" in 1963 in the area between 53°50'N-54°50'N and 2°E-4°20'E brought to light that the Dogger Bank (average depth 25 m) is built up of medium-grained sand and coarse … 2005. Exposure at the base of the cliff, west of Saltwick Bay [NZ 908 113], south-east of Whitby, North Yorkshire. International Journal of Offshore and Polar Engineering (1) Conference . Although the rate of MDAC formation is unknown, examples of leaves and anthropogenic material (industrial slag) partially encrusted in MDAC indicate that formation occurs on a human, rather than a geological, time scale (Andrews, 1988; Judd et al., submitted). [10], Construction was scheduled to start around 2014 at the earliest, but has been repeatedly postponed. Sample location 145 is situated south of the Dogger Bank, sample location 228 is situated on the Dogger Bank. Hemingway, J E. 1974. British Geological Survey, Nottingham. The result was a British victory, and the German navy delayed further significant action against the British fleet for more than a year.

Cleveland Basin, North Yorkshire, including the North Yorks Moors, North Yorkshire coast (between Boulby and Gristhorpe Bay) and the Howardian Hills. The Dogger Bank is an extensive sublittoral sandbank in the southern North Sea formed by glacial processes and submergence through sea-level rise. As such, it has been proposed by various groups to designate the area a Marine Nature Reserve. 357-361). Memoir of the Geological Survey of the United Kingdom. In: Knox, R W O'B and Cordey, W G (eds.). The formation is locally absent in the Cleveland Basin, especially on parts of the Egton Sheet (Ingleby Greenhow) and Thirsk Sheet (Hambleton Hills), where the Dogger Formation has been removed by penecontemporaneous erosion prior to deposition of the overlying Saltwick Formation (Ravenscar Group). During the Anglian glaciation, approximately 450,000 years ago, an ice sheet filled much of the North Sea, with a large proglacial lake in the southern part fed by the Rhine, Scheldt and Thames river systems. A 12,000 sq km (4,600 sq mile) area … Collectively they will … [11], Dutch, German, and Danish electrical grid operators are cooperating in a project to build a North Sea Wind Power Hub complex on one or more artificial islands to be constructed on Dogger Bank as part of a European system for sustainable electricity. Fixed-foundation wind turbines are economically limited to maximum water depths of 40 to 50 m (130 to 160 ft; 22 to 27 fathoms);[8] at greater water depths new floating wind turbine designs are required, which currently cost significantly more to build. [5], Fishing trawlers working the area have dredged up large amounts of moorpeat, remains of mammoth and rhinoceros, and occasionally Palaeolithic hunting artefacts.[6]. Lithostratigraphic nomenclature of the UK North Sea. During the last ice age the bank was part of a large landmass connecting Europe and the British Isles, now known as Doggerland. Yes (1) Source. The Basal Dogger Bank comprises a series of discrete bank-like deposits (Fig. [1], The bank extends over about 17,600 square kilometres (6,800 sq mi), and is about 260 by 100 kilometres (160 by 60 mi) in extent.
