Sr-87/Sr-86 isotope composition of bottled British mineral waters for environmental and forensic purposes (2006)
Journal Article
Montgomery, J., Evans, J., & Wildman, G. (2006). Sr-87/Sr-86 isotope composition of bottled British mineral waters for environmental and forensic purposes. Applied Geochemistry, 21(10), 1626-1634. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeochem.2006.07.002

Mineral waters in Britain show a wide range of 87Sr/86Sr isotope compositions ranging between 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7059 from Carboniferous volcanic rock sources in Perthshire, to 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7207 in the Dalradian aquifer of Aberdeenshire. The 87Sr/86Sr co... Read More about Sr-87/Sr-86 isotope composition of bottled British mineral waters for environmental and forensic purposes.

The Quaternary uplift history of central southern England: evidence from the terraces of the Solent River system and nearby raised beaches (2006)
Journal Article
Westaway, R., Bridgland, D., & White, M. (2006). The Quaternary uplift history of central southern England: evidence from the terraces of the Solent River system and nearby raised beaches. Quaternary Science Reviews, 25(17-18), 2212-2250. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2005.06.005

We have used fluvial (Solent River system) and marine terraces to reconstruct the uplift history of central southern England. In the case of the former, we make the assumption that fluvial incision has been a direct response to surface uplift, with i...

Development of single grain OSL dating of ceramic materials: Spatially resolved measurement of absorbed dose (2006)
Journal Article
Bailiff, I. (2006). Development of single grain OSL dating of ceramic materials: Spatially resolved measurement of absorbed dose. Radiation Measurements, 41(7-8), 744-749. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radmeas.2006.04.012

The feasibility of using an OSL scanning technique to determine the cumulative absorbed dose for single inclusions in sliced brick samples is explored in this paper. The OSL scanner was configured to provide optical stimulation using laser sources wi...

The Early Middle Palaeolithic in Britain: archaeology, settlement history and human behaviour (2006)
Journal Article
White, M., Scott, B., & Ashton, N. (2006). The Early Middle Palaeolithic in Britain: archaeology, settlement history and human behaviour. Journal of Quaternary Science, 21(5), 525-541. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1034

A number of archaeological sites dated to MIS 8 and MIS 7 and containing Early Middle Palaeolithic Levalloisian assemblages can now be identified within the British Palaeolithic record. These provide a mixture of high- and low-resolution signatures,... Read More about The Early Middle Palaeolithic in Britain: archaeology, settlement history and human behaviour.

Riparian landscapes and human habitat preferences during the Hoxnian (MIS 11) Interglacial (2006)
Journal Article
Ashton, N., Lewis, S., Parfitt, S., & White, M. (2006). Riparian landscapes and human habitat preferences during the Hoxnian (MIS 11) Interglacial. Journal of Quaternary Science, 21(5), 497-505. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1032

The archaeological, environmental and geological data from Hoxnian Interglacial (Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11) sites from Britain are examined to elucidate the type of habitats that humans preferred during this temperate episode. The conclusion is t... Read More about Riparian landscapes and human habitat preferences during the Hoxnian (MIS 11) Interglacial.

The Palaeolithic occupation of Europe as revealed by evidence from the rivers: data from IGCP 449 (2006)
Journal Article
Bridgland, D., Antoine, P., Limondin-Lozouet, N., Santisteban, J., Westaway, R., & White, M. (2006). The Palaeolithic occupation of Europe as revealed by evidence from the rivers: data from IGCP 449. Journal of Quaternary Science, 21(5), 437-455. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1042

IGCP 449 (2000-2004), seeking to correlate fluvial records globally, has compiled a dataset of archaeological records from Pleistocene fluvial sequences. Many terrace sequences can now be reliably dated and correlated with marine oxygen isotope stage...
