Storage of MPs in Channel sediments (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Beaumont, H., Geary, A., & Phillips, N. (2023, July). Storage of MPs in Channel sediments. Poster presented at International Assoication of Fluvial Sedimentology, Riva Del Garda

This work aims to understand where microplastics (MPs) are stored within rivers. MPs are becoming prevalent in the news as studies are finding up to 14 million-tonnes of MPs on the ocean floor (Barrett et al., 2020). This is an issue as rivers drain...

Age and development of active cryoplanation terraces in the alpine permafrost zone at Svartkampan, Jotunheimen, southern Norway (2019)
Journal Article
Matthews, J. A., Wilson, P., Winkler, S., Mourne, R. W., Hill, J. L., Owen, G., …Geary, A. P. (2019). Age and development of active cryoplanation terraces in the alpine permafrost zone at Svartkampan, Jotunheimen, southern Norway. Quaternary Research, 92(3), 641-664. https://doi.org/10.1017/qua.2019.41

Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating (SHD) of boulders on cryoplanation terrace treads and associated bedrock cliff faces revealed Holocene ages ranging from 0 ± 825 to 8890 ± 1185 yr. The cliffs were significantly younger than the inner treads, which...

Chronosequences of ant nest mounds from glacier forelands of Jostedalsbreen, southern Norway: Insights into the distribution, succession and geo-ecology of red wood ants (Formica lugubris and F. aquilonia) (2018)
Journal Article
Hill, J., Vater, A., Geary, A., & Matthews, J. (2018). Chronosequences of ant nest mounds from glacier forelands of Jostedalsbreen, southern Norway: Insights into the distribution, succession and geo-ecology of red wood ants (Formica lugubris and F. aquilonia). Holocene, 28(7), 1113-1130. https://doi.org/10.1177/0959683618761551

© 2018, The Author(s) 2018. Red wood ant nest mounds were investigated on terrain deglaciated since the mid-18th century at three outlet glaciers of the Jostedalsbreen ice cap in southern Norway. Chronosequence methodology was combined with a geo-eco...

Environmental controls on the spatial and temporal distribution of testate amoebae in two British minerotrophic mires (2014)
Thesis
Geary, A. P. Environmental controls on the spatial and temporal distribution of testate amoebae in two British minerotrophic mires. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/816060

This is the first study in the British Isles detailing the spatial and temporal distribution and controls on testate amoebae within minerotrophic brown-moss dominated mires. The study covers a full annual cycle at two mires, Max Bog in North Somerset...
