A new subsurface record of the Pliensbachian-Toarcian, Lower Jurassic, of Yorkshire (2022)
Journal Article
Trabucho-Alexandre, J., Gröcke, D., Atar, E., Herringshaw, L., & Jarvis, I. (2022). A new subsurface record of the Pliensbachian-Toarcian, Lower Jurassic, of Yorkshire. Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, 64(2), https://doi.org/10.1144/pygs2022-007

Here, we describe the upper Pliensbachian to middle Toarcian stratigraphy of the Dove's Nest borehole, which was drilled near Whitby, North Yorkshire, in 2013. The core represents a single, continuous vertical section through unweathered, immature Lo... Read More about A new subsurface record of the Pliensbachian-Toarcian, Lower Jurassic, of Yorkshire.

Hadley circulation and precipitation changes control black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway (2016)
Journal Article
Armstrong, H. A., Wagner, T., Herringshaw, L. G., Farnsworth, A. J., Lunt, D. J., Harland, M., …Atar, E. F. (2016). Hadley circulation and precipitation changes control black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway. Paleoceanography, 31(8), 1041-1053. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015pa002911

New climate simulations using the HadCM3L model with a paleogeography of the Late Jurassic [155.5 Ma], and proxy-data corroborate that warm and wet tropical-like conditions reached as far north as the UK sector of the Jurassic Boreal Seaway [~35oN]....
