Published in 2021 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.5070

Abstract: Burrowing into riverbanks by animals transfers sediment directly into river channels and has been hypothesised to accelerate bank erosion and promote mass failure. A field monitoring study on two UK rivers invaded by signal crayfish… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Environmental Earth Sciences"

DOI: 10.1007/s12665-017-7135-2

Abstract: Concerns over the rapid retreat rates of mountain glaciers have been rising as global temperatures have continued to increase. The extent of variation in the retreat of mountain glaciers can provide information about changes to… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Geomorphology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2016.11.013

Abstract: Abstract In association with an undergraduate Honors Seminar at Michigan State University, we studied two small kame deltas in north-central Lower Michigan. These recently identified deltas provide clear evidence for a previously unknown proglacial lake… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of environmental radioactivity"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvrad.2019.106124

Abstract: This paper reports work exploring the potential for using the natural fallout radionuclide 210Pbex to date moraine soils for tracing glacier retreat. Based on the physical processes of 210Pbex deposition, decay and losses due to… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Marine Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2020.106272

Abstract: Abstract The Columbia River Littoral Cell (CRLC) (160 km in length) provides opportunities to compare competing accommodation space relations under different conditions of relative sea level change. The CRLC system includes abundant littoral sand supply from… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Quaternary Science Reviews"

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2016.12.007

Abstract: Abstract Retreat of the Antarctic ice sheets since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) contributed to sea-level rise, but the location, amount, and timing of ice mass loss has been controversial. This paper presents new 10… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Quaternary Science Reviews"

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.08.018

Abstract: Abstract The rapid retreat of the Baltic Ice Stream and the development of the Baltic Ice Lake is assessed using data from sediment cores retrieved from three sub-basins in the southern Baltic Sea. Hydraulic piston… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Quaternary Science Reviews"

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.10.002

Abstract: Abstract During the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) the marine-terminating Barra Fan Ice Stream (BFIS), a major conduit of the British Irish Ice Sheet (BIIS), drained much of western Scotland and northwest Ireland with ice streaming… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Quaternary Science Reviews"

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2019.105989

Abstract: During the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), ice streams of the last British-Irish Ice Sheet (BIIS) controlled ice discharge from various dispersal centres. Deglaciation was characterised by shifts in ice-divide location and changes in internal ice-sheet… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Annals of Glaciology"

DOI: 10.1017/aog.2017.3

Abstract: ABSTRACT Accelerated discharge through marine-terminating outlet glaciers has been a key component of the rapid mass loss from Arctic glaciers since the 1990s. However, glacier retreat and its climatic controls have not been assessed at… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"

DOI: 10.1029/2019jf005359

Abstract: Sedimentary processes are known to help facilitate tidewater glacier advance, but their role in modulating retreat is uncertain and poorly quantified. In this study we use repeated seafloor bathymetric surveys and satellite‐derived terminus positions from… read more here.
