The transport and mass balance of fallout radionuclides in Brotherswater, Cumbria (UK) (2019)
Journal Article
Appleby, P., Semertzidou, P., Piliposian, G., Chiverrell, R., Schillereff, D., & Warburton, J. (2019). The transport and mass balance of fallout radionuclides in Brotherswater, Cumbria (UK). Journal of Paleolimnology, 62(4), 389-407. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10933-019-00095-z

This paper investigates the role of intervening transport processes on lake sediment records of the atmospherically deposited radionuclides 210Pb and 137Cs. Brotherswater is of particular interest to this issue in that its large catchment/lake area r...

Very large convergent multi-fluted glacigenic deposits in the NW Highlands, Scotland (2019)
Journal Article
Davies, T., Warburton, J., & Turnbull, J. (2019). Very large convergent multi-fluted glacigenic deposits in the NW Highlands, Scotland. Scottish Journal of Geology, 55(2), 155-165. https://doi.org/10.1144/sjg2018-003

We describe two large convergent multi-fluted glacigenic deposits in the NW Highlands, Scotland, and point out their resemblance to a number of landforms emerging from presently deglaciating areas of Greenland and Antarctica. We suggest that they all... Read More about Very large convergent multi-fluted glacigenic deposits in the NW Highlands, Scotland.

Using lake sediment archives to improve understanding of flood magnitude and frequency: recent extreme flooding in northwest UK (2019)
Journal Article
Chiverrell, R., Sear, D., Warburton, J., Macdonald, N., Schillereff, D., Dearing, J., Croudace, I., Brown, J., & Bradley, J. (2019). Using lake sediment archives to improve understanding of flood magnitude and frequency: recent extreme flooding in northwest UK. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 44(12), 2376-2376. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.4650

We present the first quantitative reconstruction of palaeofloods using lake sediments for the UK and show that for a large catchment in NW England the cluster of devastating floods from 1990 to present is without precedent in this 558‐year palaeo‐rec...

An evaluation of a low-cost pole aerial photography (PAP) and structure from motion (SfM) approach for topographic surveying of small rivers (2019)
Journal Article
Visser, F., Woodget, A., Skellern, A., Forsey, J., Warburton, J., & Johnson, R. (2019). An evaluation of a low-cost pole aerial photography (PAP) and structure from motion (SfM) approach for topographic surveying of small rivers. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 40(24), 9321-9351. https://doi.org/10.1080/01431161.2019.1630782

To better understand fluvial forms and processes, geomorphologists have a need for high-resolution fluvial topographic surveys. Continuous data collection approaches such as airborne laser scanning (ALS), terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), and structu...

The importance of riparian plant orientation in river flow: implications for flow structures and drag (2019)
Journal Article
Boothroyd, R. J., Hardy, R. J., Warburton, J., & Marjoribanks, T. I. (2019). The importance of riparian plant orientation in river flow: implications for flow structures and drag. Journal of Ecohydraulics, 3(2), 108-129. https://doi.org/10.1080/24705357.2019.1573648

In a series of high resolution numerical modelling experiments, we incorporated submerged riparian plants into a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model used to predict flow structures and drag in river flow. Individual plant point clouds were captu... Read More about The importance of riparian plant orientation in river flow: implications for flow structures and drag.
