Channel form, bed material and sediment sources of the Sprongdøla, Southern Norway: Evidence for a distinct periglacio-fluvial system (1998)
Journal Article

A geomorphological and sedimentological case study is made of the Sprongdøla, a medium-sized river flowing in a predominantly bedrock channel in the mountains of southern Norway. Particular attention is given to bed material characteristics and poten...

Periglacial patterned ground on the Styggedalsbreen glacier foreland, Jotunheimen, southern Norway: Micro-topographic, paraglacial and geoecological controls (1998)
Journal Article

Several types of periglacial patterned ground have developed rapidly in the frost-susceptible sediments of degraded 'annual' moraines deposited between c. AD 1930 and 1973 on the glacier foreland of Styggedalsbreen, western Jotunheimen, Norway. Detai...

Student involvement with the regionally important geomorphological site (RIGS) scheme: An opportunity to learn geomorphology and gain transferable skills (1996)
Journal Article

This paper outlines student involvement with a conservation project which aims to develop a Regionally Important Geological/Geomorphological Site network (RIGS) at a county level in the UK. The local RIGS scheme is administered through the Gloucester...

Channel planform adjustment and stream power variations on the middle River Coe, Western Grampian Highlands, Scotland (1994)
Journal Article

This paper assesses the spatial variations in types and rates of channel migration over an historical time-period on the middle River Coe, Western Grampians, Scotland. The study reach represents an exceptional example of an integrated channel system,...

The magnitude and frequency of extreme rainfall within north-east Scotland over an historical timespan (1993)
Journal Article

This paper evaluates the magnitude, frequency, duration and seasonality of extreme rainfall over an historical timespan in the Findhorn and Spey river basins, in north-east Scotland. Patterns are compared with published results from other rainfall ga... Read More about The magnitude and frequency of extreme rainfall within north-east Scotland over an historical timespan.

The establishment of a historical flood chronology for the River Tweed catchment, Berwickshire, Scotland (1990)
Journal Article

This paper aims to assess the magnitude and frequency of flooding over the past 200 years within sub-catchments in the middle River Tweed basin, Berwickshire, Scotland. The recurrence interval of floods as represented by short-term gauged discharge r...

The use of long-term rainfall records for augmenting historic flood series: A case study on the upper Dee, Aberdeenshire, Scotland (1987)
Journal Article

Establishing the magnitude and frequency of floods within upland catchments on the basis of short-term gauged runoff records is crucially dependent upon the extent to which the record is truly representative. In the case of the River Dee, upstream of... Read More about The use of long-term rainfall records for augmenting historic flood series: A case study on the upper Dee, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
