Early Last Interglacial ocean warming drove substantial ice mass loss from Antarctica (2020)
Journal Article
(2020). Early Last Interglacial ocean warming drove substantial ice mass loss from Antarctica. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 3996-4006. https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-egu2020-12771

The future response of the Antarctic ice sheet to rising temperatures remains highly uncertain. A useful period for assessing the sensitivity of Antarctica to warming is the Last Interglacial (LIG; 129-116 kyr), which experienced warmer polar tempera...

Palynology of the Cenomanian to lowermost Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) Chalk of the Trunch Borehole (Norfolk, UK) and a new dinoflagellate cyst bioevent stratigraphy for NW Europe (2020)
Journal Article
(2020). Palynology of the Cenomanian to lowermost Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) Chalk of the Trunch Borehole (Norfolk, UK) and a new dinoflagellate cyst bioevent stratigraphy for NW Europe. Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.revpalbo.2020.104188

A high-resolution palynological analysis of the Cenomanian to Lower Campanian in the Trunch borehole, Norfolk (southern North Sea basin) is documented. This constitutes the most detailed continuous record of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts (dinoc...

The empirical basis for modelling glacial erosion rates. (2020)
Journal Article
Waller, & Knight. (2020). The empirical basis for modelling glacial erosion rates. Nature communications, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-14583-8

Glaciers are highly effective agents of erosion that have profoundly shaped Earth's surface, but there is uncertainty about how glacial erosion should be parameterised in landscape evolution models. Glacial erosion rate is usually modelled as a funct... Read More about The empirical basis for modelling glacial erosion rates..

Boron isotope record of peak metamorphic ultrahigh-pressure and retrograde fluid-rock interaction in white mica (Lago di Cignana, Western Alps) (2020)
Journal Article
Halama, Konrad-Schmolke, M., & De Hoog, J. (2020). Boron isotope record of peak metamorphic ultrahigh-pressure and retrograde fluid-rock interaction in white mica (Lago di Cignana, Western Alps). Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00410-020-1661-8

This study presents boron (B) concentration and isotope data for white mica from (ultra)high-pressure (UHP), subduction-related metamorphic rocks from Lago di Cignana (Western Alps, Italy). These rocks are of specific geological interest, because the...

Glaciers are highly effective agents of erosion that have profoundly shaped Earth’s surface, but there is uncertainty about how glacial erosion should be parameterised in landscape evolution models. Glacial erosion rate is usually modelled as a funct... Read More about The empirical basis for modelling glacial erosion rates.

The influence of low-density granite bodies on extensional basins (2020)
Journal Article
Howell, L., Leslie, G., Clarke, S., Mitten, A., Pringle, J., & Egan, S. (2020). The influence of low-density granite bodies on extensional basins. Geology Today, https://doi.org/10.1111/gto.12297

The Carboniferous North Pennine Basin remains the type locality for the ‘block and basin’ tectonic framework model. It has been widely believed that during periods of tectonic extension, large low-density bodies within the basement permit buoyant blo...

Fenced Fisheries, Eurasian Otters (Lutra lutra) and Licenced Trapping: An Impact Assessment (2020)
Journal Article
Nobajas, A., Pemberton, S., Webb, D., Davoile, J., Wright, L., & Allen, D. (2020). Fenced Fisheries, Eurasian Otters (Lutra lutra) and Licenced Trapping: An Impact Assessment

The endangered Eurasian Otter (Lutra lutra) became a protected species in England and Wales in 1978. The gradual recovery of the species coincides with the rise in specimen fishing on stillwater fisheries and increased concerns about predation. Altho...

Braided peridotite sills and metasomatism in the Rum Layered Suite, Scotland (2020)
Journal Article
Gertisser, R. (2020). Braided peridotite sills and metasomatism in the Rum Layered Suite, Scotland. Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00410-019-1652-9

The Rum Eastern Layered Intrusion (ELI; Scotland) is an open-system layered intrusion constructed of 16 macro-rhythmic units. Each of the macro-rhythmic units consists of a peridotite base and a troctolite (+/- gabbro) top, previously attributed to t...

Engaging Augmented Environments: Building Digital Spaces (2020)
Presentation / Conference
Rogers. (2020, January). Engaging Augmented Environments: Building Digital Spaces. Presented at KIITE STUDENT EDUCATION CONFERENCE 2020, Keele Hall

This presentation explores the viability of augmented digital spaces and environments and importantly, the pedagogic, social and inclusive impact which they have. Educational augmented digital spaces include a wide range of media and systems, from re... Read More about Engaging Augmented Environments: Building Digital Spaces.
