Forensic geoscience non-invasive detection and characterisation of underground clandestine complexes, bunkers, tunnels and firing ranges (2024)
Journal Article
Pringle, J. K., Ruffell, A., Styles, P., Stringfellow, M., Stimpson, I. G., Banham, S. G., …Thompson, J. (2024). Forensic geoscience non-invasive detection and characterisation of underground clandestine complexes, bunkers, tunnels and firing ranges. Forensic Science International, 359, Article 112033. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.forsciint.2024.112033

Recent events in conflict zones have emphasized that the successful detection and characterisation of buried clandestine complexes, bunkers and tunnels is vitally important for forensic investigators globally, to reduce or solve criminal activities,...

Hazardous explosive eruptions of a recharging multi-cyclic island arc caldera (2024)
Journal Article
Preine, J., Karstens, J., Hübscher, C., Druitt, T., Kutterolf, S., Nomikou, P., …Papanikolaou, D. (2024). Hazardous explosive eruptions of a recharging multi-cyclic island arc caldera. Nature Geoscience, 17(4), 323-331. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41561-024-01392-7

Caldera-forming eruptions of silicic volcanic systems are among the most devastating events on Earth. By contrast, post-collapse volcanic activity initiating new caldera cycles is generally considered less hazardous. Formed after Santorini’s latest c...

Geometrical restoration of a late Neoproterozoic depositional framework and an intrabasinal unconformity in the Laurentian margin Dalradian Supergroup, Grampian Highlands, Scotland (2024)
Journal Article
Leslie, A., Krabbendam, M., Thomas, C., Banks, C., & Clarke, S. M. (in press). Geometrical restoration of a late Neoproterozoic depositional framework and an intrabasinal unconformity in the Laurentian margin Dalradian Supergroup, Grampian Highlands, Scotland. Journal of the Geological Society, https://doi.org/10.1144/jgs2023-208

Restoring primary depositional frameworks from orogenic settings is challenging. To demonstrate a robust determination of original, but now highly-deformed, depositional frameworks and their first-order sequence-stratigraphy, we analyse the Dalradian...

“you just look at rocks, and have beards” Perceptions of Geology From the United Kingdom: A Qualitative Analysis From an Online Survey (2024)
Journal Article
Rogers, S. L., Giles, S., Dowey, N., Greene, S. E., Bhatia, R., Van Landeghem, K., & King, C. (2024). “you just look at rocks, and have beards” Perceptions of Geology From the United Kingdom: A Qualitative Analysis From an Online Survey. Earth Science, Systems and Society, 4, https://doi.org/10.3389/esss.2024.10078

In the last few decades, Geology courses, particularly in the Global North, have seen a decline in student enrolment. Geologists have linked this downturn to a lack of exposure to the subject at school and college level. This work seeks to understand...

Giant offshore pumice deposit records a shallow submarine explosive eruption of ancestral Santorini (2024)
Journal Article
Druitt, T., Kutterolf, S., Ronge, T. A., Hübscher, C., Nomikou, P., Preine, J., …Lee, H. (2024). Giant offshore pumice deposit records a shallow submarine explosive eruption of ancestral Santorini. Communications Earth & Environment, 5(1), Article 24. https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-023-01171-z

Large explosive volcanic eruptions from island arcs pour pyroclastic currents into marine basins, impacting ecosystems and generating tsunamis that threaten coastal communities and infrastructures. Risk assessments require robust records of such high... Read More about Giant offshore pumice deposit records a shallow submarine explosive eruption of ancestral Santorini.

A multidisciplinary scientific investigation of the 1916 Hawthorn Mine Crater, Beaumont Hamel, Somme, Northern France (2024)
Journal Article
Wisniewski, K., Doyle, P., Hunter, R., Pringle, J., Stimpson, I., Wright, D., …Ottey, P. (2024). A multidisciplinary scientific investigation of the 1916 Hawthorn Mine Crater, Beaumont Hamel, Somme, Northern France. Journal of Conflict Archaeology, 18(2-3), 125-156. https://doi.org/10.1080/15740773.2023.2297202

Hawthorn Crater is a prominent feature of the former Somme battlefield near Beaumont Hamel, Northern France. It resulted from the detonation of arguably the most famous of nine mines that the British had prepared below German lines on 1 July 1916, as...
