Journal Article
Clelland, A. A., Marshall, G. J., Baxter, R., Potter, S., Talucci, A. C., Rady, J. M., Genet, H., Rogers, B. M., & Natali, S. M. (2024). Annual and Seasonal Patterns of Burned Area Products in Arctic-Boreal North America and Russia for 2001–2020. Remote Sensing, 16(17), Article 3306. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs16173306

Boreal and Arctic regions have warmed up to four times quicker than the rest of the planet since the 1970s. As a result, boreal and tundra ecosystems are experiencing more frequent and higher intensity extreme weather events and disturbances, such as...

Cultural contexts of adolescent anxiety: Paradox, ambivalence, and disjuncture (2024)
Journal Article
Atkinson, S. (2024). Cultural contexts of adolescent anxiety: Paradox, ambivalence, and disjuncture. Social Sciences & Humanities Open, 10, Article 101081. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssaho.2024.101081

The paper offers a critical reading of the dominant ways we frame and understand anxiety in adolescence. These centre on the individual and for the most part limit attention to external and social influences operating at a close scale to the individu...

Stable carbon isotopes and bulk-sediment geochemistry as indicators of relative sea-level change in tidal marshes, mangroves and isolation basins: Application and developments (2024)
Journal Article
Wilson, G. P., Lloyd, J. M., Khan, N. S., & Kemp, A. C. (2024). Stable carbon isotopes and bulk-sediment geochemistry as indicators of relative sea-level change in tidal marshes, mangroves and isolation basins: Application and developments. Quaternary Science Reviews, 340, Article 108855. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2024.108855

Bulk organic stable carbon isotope (δ13C) and accompanying bulk organic geochemical measurements have been increasingly used as a relative sea-level (RSL) indicator over the last two decades. Their utility as a RSL indicator is premised on the abilit...

Abrupt climate change at the MIS 5/4 transition recorded in a speleothem from the Eastern Mediterranean (2024)
Journal Article
Paine, A. R., Baldini, J. U., Ünal-İmer, E., Wadsworth, F. B., Iveson, A. A., Humphreys, M. C., Brown, R. J., Müller, W., & Ottley, C. J. (2024). Abrupt climate change at the MIS 5/4 transition recorded in a speleothem from the Eastern Mediterranean. Quaternary Science Reviews, 339, Article 108841. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2024.108841

The marine isotope stage (MIS) 5a to 4 transition (∼74 ka) was associated with rapid ice sheet expansion, declining moisture availability globally, and significant upheaval of terrestrial ecosystems across the northern hemisphere. Here, we present pr... Read More about Abrupt climate change at the MIS 5/4 transition recorded in a speleothem from the Eastern Mediterranean.

The influence of temperature (up to 120 °C) on the thermal conductivity of variably porous andesite (2024)
Journal Article
Heap, M. J., Alizada, G., Jessop, D. E., Kennedy, B. M., & Wadsworth, F. B. (2024). The influence of temperature (up to 120 °C) on the thermal conductivity of variably porous andesite. Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 452, Article 108140. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2024.108140

The thermal conductivity of volcanic rock is an essential input parameter in a wide range of models designed to better understand volcanic and geothermal processes. However, although volcanoes and geothermal reservoirs are often characterised by temp...
