Controls on jökulhlaup-transported buried ice melt-out at Skeiðarársandur, Iceland: Implications for the evolution of ice-marginal environments (2020)
Journal Article
Blauvelt, D. J., Russell, A. J., Large, A. R., Tweed, F. S., Hiemstra, J. F., Kulessa, B., …Waller, R. I. (2020). Controls on jökulhlaup-transported buried ice melt-out at Skeiðarársandur, Iceland: Implications for the evolution of ice-marginal environments. Geomorphology, 360, Article 107164. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2020.107164

High-magnitude jökulhlaups, glacier margin position and ice-thickness have been identified as key controls on sandur evolution. Existing models however have focused primarily on observations made during short windows of time and often do not account...

Too much of a good thing? The role of detailed UAV imagery in characterising large-scale badland drainage characteristics in South-eastern Spain (2017)
Journal Article
Nobajas, A., Waller, R., Robinson, Z., & Sangonzalo, R. (2017). Too much of a good thing? The role of detailed UAV imagery in characterising large-scale badland drainage characteristics in South-eastern Spain. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 38(8-10), 2844 - 2860. https://doi.org/10.1080/01431161.2016.1274450

Some arid and semi-arid areas experience high erosion rates as a consequence of their geological and climatic conditions. This can lead to the development of badland environments characterized by very high drainage densities and the occurrence of a r... Read More about Too much of a good thing?

Glacier-Permafrost interactions, debris transfer mechanisms and the development of distinctive sediment-landform associations in a High Arctic glacial environment: the case of Fountain Glacier, Bylot Island, Nunavut, Canada (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Waller, R., Hambrey, M., & Moorman, B. (2016). Glacier-Permafrost interactions, debris transfer mechanisms and the development of distinctive sediment-landform associations in a High Arctic glacial environment: the case of Fountain Glacier, Bylot Island, Nunavut, Canada. In XI. International Conference On Permafrost – Book of Abstracts, 20 – 24 June 2016, Potsdam, Germany (106-107). https://doi.org/10.2312/GFZ.LIS.2016.001

Detailed investigations of the sediment-landform associations being actively created in modern-day periglacial environments provide the opportunity to constrain the linkages between process and form that underpin palaeoenvironmental reconstructions....

Identifying spatial and temporal dynamics of proglacial groundwater-surface-water exchange using combined temperature-tracing methods (2015)
Journal Article
Tristram, D., Krause, S., Levy, A., Robinson, Z., Waller, R., & Weatherill, J. (2015). Identifying spatial and temporal dynamics of proglacial groundwater-surface-water exchange using combined temperature-tracing methods. Freshwater Science, 34(1), 99 -110. https://doi.org/10.1086/679757

The effect of proglacial groundwater systems on surface hydrology and ecology in cold regions often is neglected when assessing the ecohydrological implications of climate change. We present a novel approach in which we combined 2 temperature-tracing...

Long-term variability of proglacial groundwater-fed hydrological systems in an area of glacier retreat, Skeioararsandur, Iceland (2014)
Journal Article
Levy, A., Robinson, Z., Krause, S., Weatherill, J., & Waller, R. (2015). Long-term variability of proglacial groundwater-fed hydrological systems in an area of glacier retreat, Skeioararsandur, Iceland. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 40(7), 981 -994. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.3696

Proglacial groundwater-fed features, such as seeps, substantially impact proglacial geomorphology, hydrology, and ecology. However, there is a paucity of research on the impacts of climate change and glacier retreat on the extent of these important f...
