Post-1883 ash fall on Panjang and Sertung and its ecological impact (1992)
Journal Article

This paper describes the post-1883 history of volcanic disturbance to the islands Panjang and Sertung, within the Krakatau group, Indonesia. Historical data are reviewed briefly, together with previous stratigraphic and geochemical data. In 1989 six... Read More about Post-1883 ash fall on Panjang and Sertung and its ecological impact.

The Same But Different: The professional socialisation of estate management students reconsidered (1991)
Journal Article

This baler compares and contrasts two separate bieces of research on surveying students and practitioners completed in 1980 and 1990, by Martin Joseph and myself respectively. This paper discusses the differences in the two approaches to the research... Read More about The Same But Different: The professional socialisation of estate management students reconsidered.

Modules and field studies (1991)
Journal Article

The use of mineral magnetic analyses as an aid in investigating the recent volcanic disturbance history of the Krakatau Islands, Indonesia (1991)
Journal Article

The recent disturbance of vegetation on islands within the Krakatau group, Indonesia, by a succession of ash falls from Anak Krakatau, has complicated studies of tropical ecosystem recovery since the major eruption of 1883 provided a ‘clean slate’. M... Read More about The use of mineral magnetic analyses as an aid in investigating the recent volcanic disturbance history of the Krakatau Islands, Indonesia.

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...

Historical records and geomorphological events: The 1771 ‘eruption’ of Solway Moss (1989)
Journal Article

A number of authors have pointed to the value of historical evidence in understanding change in the physical environment. This paper examines historical evidence for the 1771 ‘eruption’ or bog burst of Solway Moss in north-west England. A range of co...

Sources for establishing a Historic Flood Chronology (Pre-1940) within Scottish River Catchments (1987)
Journal Article

Gauged river runoff records extend only over limited timespans, mostly commencing post-1940. Historical sources can provide additional material to assist in extending the hydrological record into the nineteenth century and earlier. Such sources vary,...

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.

Valuing a service brought in from the cold
Journal Article

Enforcement services across England and Wales are, alongside many other areas of planning, under threat of cuts and a downgrading in prioritisation; and such pressures threaten to undermine a decade of positive change

Archiving memories of changing flood risk: Interdisciplinary explorations around knowledge for resilience
Journal Article

The paper explores the changing nature of the flood archive drawing on different disciplinary perspectives, approaches and attitudes. It uses a braiding metaphor to map a journey around shifting islands that contain different primary research on floo...
