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...

Understanding the influence of psychology and vicarious experience on property flood resilience choices (2020)
Thesis

There is an acknowledged need to improve the resilience of those at risk of flooding in the UK. The majority of the at-risk population do not actively adopt mitigation measures even when they have experienced multiple flood events. If uptake of resil...

Permeability and surface hardness surveying of stone damaged by ballistic impact (2019)
Journal Article

Recent instances of the destruction of cultural assets in conflict zones have demonstrated the need to develop methods which will allow for the assessment of damage to heritage stone in the field. In particular, non-destructive methods would be inval... Read More about Permeability and surface hardness surveying of stone damaged by ballistic impact.

Integrating structure-from-motion photogrammetry into rock weathering field methodologies (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Despite recent rapid advances in the field of structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry, the use of high-resolution data to investigate small-scale processes is a relatively underdeveloped field. In particular, rock... Read More about Integrating structure-from-motion photogrammetry into rock weathering field methodologies.

Re-visioning Geosciences Education: New students, new expectations, new outcomes, new learning (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The international higher educational landscape is characterised by shifting sands, tectonic activity, erosion, deposition, and occasional volcanism. This fluid context arises in response to changes in policy, modes of provision and technology enhance...

SMAP Satellite Soil Moisture Products: a preliminary evaluation against COSMOS-UK estimates in Great Britain (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Satellite-based soil moisture monitoring has matured, notably as a result of the Soil Moisture Ocean Salinity (SMOS) and Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) missions. Whilst spatial resolutions fall short of those ideal for field-scale monitoring, th...

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.
