A flexible approach to assessing synchroneity of past events using Bayesian reconstructions of sedimentation history (2008)
Journal Article
Parnell, A., Haslett, J., Allen, J., Buck, C., & Huntley, B. (2008). A flexible approach to assessing synchroneity of past events using Bayesian reconstructions of sedimentation history. Quaternary Science Reviews, 27(19-20), 1872-1885. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2008.07.009

The dating of depths in two or more cores is frequently followed by a study of the synchroneity or otherwise of events reflected in the cores. The difficulties most frequently encountered are: (a) determining precisely the depths associated with the...

Holocene climate variability in northernmost Europe (2007)
Journal Article
Allen, J., Long, A., Ottley, C., Pearson, D., & Huntley, B. (2007). Holocene climate variability in northernmost Europe. Quaternary Science Reviews, 26(9-10), 1432-1453. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2007.02.009

The sediments of a small lake on Nordkinnhalvøya, Finnmark, Norway, were investigated in order to test the hypothesis that this region was sensitive to centennial–millennial climatic fluctuations during the Holocene related to changes in ocean circul...

Bayesian palaeoclimate reconstruction. (2006)
Journal Article
Haslett, J., Salter-Townshend, M., Wilson, S., Bhattacharya, B., Whiley, M., Allen, J., …Mitchell, F. (2006). Bayesian palaeoclimate reconstruction. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series A, 169(3), 395-438. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-985x.2006.00429.x

Summary.  We consider the problem of reconstructing prehistoric climates by using fossil data that have been extracted from lake sediment cores. Such reconstructions promise to provide one of the few ways to validate modern models of climate change.... Read More about Bayesian palaeoclimate reconstruction..

A new early Holocene cryptotephra from northwest Scotland (2005)
Journal Article
Ranner, P., Allen, J., & Huntley, B. (2005). A new early Holocene cryptotephra from northwest Scotland. Journal of Quaternary Science, 20(3), 201-208. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.910

Clarification of the temporal relationships amongst records of environmental change is dependent on accurate timescales. Event markers such as tephra layers are extremely important for constraining chronologies and providing tie points. In this repor...

Oxygen isotope stage 3 (OIS3), an interstade between approximately 60,000 and 25,000 yr B.P., presents an ideal opportunity to compare high-resolution climate simulations with the geologic record. To facilitate this comparison, the results of a mesos... Read More about Comparison of climate model results with European vegetation and permafrost during oxygen isotope stage three..
