Journal Article
Barlow, N., Shennan, I., Long, A., Gehrels, W., Saher, M., Woodroffe, S., & Hillier, C. (2013). Salt marshes as late Holocene tide gauges. Global and Planetary Change, 106, 90-110. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloplacha.2013.03.003

Understanding late Holocene to present relative sea-level changes at centennial or sub-centennial scales requires geological records that dovetail with the instrumental era. Salt marsh sediments are one of the most reliable geological tide gauges. In... Read More about Salt marshes as late Holocene tide gauges.

Scale considerations in using diatoms as indicators of sea-level change: lessons from Alaska (2013)
Journal Article
Watcham, E., Shennan, I., & Barlow, N. (2013). Scale considerations in using diatoms as indicators of sea-level change: lessons from Alaska. Journal of Quaternary Science, 28(2), 165-179. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.2592

This paper assesses variations in quantitative reconstructions of late Holocene relative sea-level (RSL) change arising from using modern diatom datasets from different spatial scales, applied to case studies from Alaska. We investigate the implicati... Read More about Scale considerations in using diatoms as indicators of sea-level change: lessons from Alaska.
