Proxy flood records from sediment stacks in floodplain palaeochannels provide an opportunity to extend short instrumental records and thus improve current estimates of flood risk. The 'Bloody Inches' (a meander cutoff on the lower River Tay, Scotland... Read More about Use of multi-proxy flood records to improve estimates of flood risk: Lower River Tay, Scotland.
