Journal Article
Wang, J., Hu, Z., Pan, B., Li, M., Dong, Z., Li, X., …Bridgland, D. (2019). Spatial distribution pattern of channel steepness index as evidence for differential rock uplift along the eastern Altun Shan on the northern Tibetan Plateau. Global and Planetary Change, 181, Article 102979. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloplacha.2019.102979

The eastern Altun Shan is a crucial part of the Altun orogenic belt within the Tibetan Plateau. Study of the uplift rate and the related features in this area provides important clues for understanding the uplift mechanism of the Tibetan Plateau as a...

Twisted handaxes in Middle Pleistocene Britain and their implications for regional-scale cultural variation and the deep history of Acheulean hominin groups (2019)
Journal Article
White, M., Ashton, N., & Bridgland, D. (2019). Twisted handaxes in Middle Pleistocene Britain and their implications for regional-scale cultural variation and the deep history of Acheulean hominin groups. Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society, 85, 61-81. https://doi.org/10.1017/ppr.2019.1

A better understood chronological framework for the Middle Pleistocene of Britain has enabled archaeologists to detect a number of temporally-restricted assemblage-types, based not on ‘culture historical’ schemes of typological progression but on ind...

Fluvial entrenchment and integration of the Sanmen Gorge, the Lower Yellow River (2019)
Journal Article
Hu, Z., Li, M., Dong, Z., Guo, L., Bridgland, D., Pan, B., …Liu, X. (2019). Fluvial entrenchment and integration of the Sanmen Gorge, the Lower Yellow River. Global and Planetary Change, 178, 129-138. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gloplacha.2019.04.010

Strategic studies of gravel deposits, in particular using heavy-mineral analyses, have thrown light on the important unresolved question as to the timing of the initiation of the Yellow River drainage through the Sanmen Gorge, which linked the headwa...

Journal Article
Cunha, P., Martins, A., Buylaert, J., Murray, A., Gouveia, M., Font, E., …Mota, R. (2019). The Lowermost Tejo River Terrace at Foz do Enxarrique, Portugal: A Palaeoenvironmental Archive from c. 60–35 ka and Its Implications for the Last Neanderthals in Westernmost Iberia. Quaternary, 2(1), Article 3. https://doi.org/10.3390/quat2010003

Reconstruction of Pleistocene environments and processes in the sensitive geographical location of westernmost Iberia, facing the North Atlantic Ocean, is crucial for understanding impacts on early human communities. We provide a characterization of...
