Uncertainties of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment Model Predictions in North America associated with 3D structure (2020)
Journal Article
Li, T., Wu, P., Wang, H., Steffen, H., Khan, N., Engelhart, S., …Horton, B. (2020). Uncertainties of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment Model Predictions in North America associated with 3D structure. Geophysical Research Letters, 47(10), Article e2020GL087944. https://doi.org/10.1029/2020gl087944

We quantify GIA prediction uncertainties of 250 1D and 3D glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) models through comparisons with deglacial relative sea‐level (RSL) data from North America and rate of vertical land motion ( urn:x-wiley:00948276:media:grl6...

Estimating global mean sea-level rise and its uncertainties by 2100 and 2300 from an expert survey (2020)
Journal Article
Horton, B., Khan, N., Cahill, N., Lee, J., Shaw, T., Garner, A., …Rahmstorf, S. (2020). Estimating global mean sea-level rise and its uncertainties by 2100 and 2300 from an expert survey. npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 3, Article 18. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41612-020-0121-5

Sea-level rise projections and knowledge of their uncertainties are vital to make informed mitigation and adaptation decisions. To elicit projections from members of the scientific community regarding future global mean sea-level (GMSL) rise, we repe...

Geospatial modeling suggests threats from stormy seas to Rhode Island's coastal septic systems (2020)
Journal Article
Cox, A., Dowling, M., Loomis, G., Engelhart, S., & Amador, J. (2020). Geospatial modeling suggests threats from stormy seas to Rhode Island's coastal septic systems. Journal of sustainable water in the built environment, 6(3), Article 04020012. https://doi.org/10.1061/jswbay.0000917

Coastal communities preparing for climate change and sea-level rise need to consider the impact large storms will have on belowground infrastructure. Although these communities often rely on on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTSs) to treat waste...

Holocene relative sea-level change along the tectonically active Chilean coast (2020)
Journal Article
Garrett, E., Melnick, D., Dura, T., Cisternas, M., Ely, L. L., Wesson, R. L., …Whitehouse, P. L. (2020). Holocene relative sea-level change along the tectonically active Chilean coast. Quaternary Science Reviews, 236, Article 106281. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2020.106281

We present a comprehensive relative sea-level (RSL) database for north, central, and south-central Chile (18.5°S – 43.6°S) using a consistent, systematic, and internationally comparable approach. Despite its latitudinal extent, this coastline has rec... Read More about Holocene relative sea-level change along the tectonically active Chilean coast.

Direct evidence of a high-concentration basal layer in a submarine turbidity current (2020)
Journal Article
Wang, Z., Xu, J., Talling, P. J., Cartigny, M. J., Simmons, S. M., Gwiazda, R., …Parsons, D. R. (2020). Direct evidence of a high-concentration basal layer in a submarine turbidity current. Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 161, Article 103300. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dsr.2020.103300

Submarine turbidity currents are one of the most important sediment transfer processes on earth. Yet the fundamental nature of turbidity currents is still debated; especially whether they are entirely dilute and turbulent, or a thin and dense basal l...

A spatial total nitrogen budget for Great Britain (2020)
Journal Article
Fan, X., Worrall, F., Baldini, L. M., & Burt, T. P. (2020). A spatial total nitrogen budget for Great Britain. Science of the Total Environment, 728, Article 138864. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.138864

Understanding nutrient budgets makes it possible to predict where and by how much nutrients are accumulating in the environment. Previous studies have considered this problem for nitrogen (N) but have limited themselves to reactive N species (i.e. ex... Read More about A spatial total nitrogen budget for Great Britain.

A global database of Holocene paleotemperature records (2020)
Journal Article
Kaufman, D., McKay, N., Routson, C., Erb, M., Davis, B., Heiri, O., …Zhilich, S. (2020). A global database of Holocene paleotemperature records. Scientific Data, 7(1), Article 115. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-020-0445-3

A comprehensive database of paleoclimate records is needed to place recent warming into the longer-term context of natural climate variability. We present a global compilation of quality-controlled, published, temperature-sensitive proxy records exte... Read More about A global database of Holocene paleotemperature records.

Identifying Flow Pathways for Phosphorus Transport Using Observed Event Forensics and the CRAFT (Catchment Runoff Attenuation Flux Tool) (2020)
Journal Article
Adams, R., Quinn, P., Barber, N., & Burke, S. (2020). Identifying Flow Pathways for Phosphorus Transport Using Observed Event Forensics and the CRAFT (Catchment Runoff Attenuation Flux Tool). Water, 12(4), Article 1081. https://doi.org/10.3390/w12041081

Identifying key flow pathways is critical in order to understand the transport of Phosphorus (P) from agricultural headwater catchments. High frequency/resolution datasets from two such catchments in Northwest England enabled individual events to be...
