Near-field sea-level variability in northwest Europe and ice sheet stability during the last interglacial (2015)
Journal Article
Long, A., Barlow, N., Busschers, F., Cohen, K., Gehrels, W., & Wake, L. (2015). Near-field sea-level variability in northwest Europe and ice sheet stability during the last interglacial. Quaternary Science Reviews, 126, 26-40. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2015.08.021

Global sea level during the Last Interglacial (LIG, Marine Isotope Sub-stage 5e) peaked between c. 5.5 and 9 m above present, implying significant melt from Greenland and Antarctica. Relative sea level (RSL) observations from several far- and interme... Read More about Near-field sea-level variability in northwest Europe and ice sheet stability during the last interglacial.

Late Glacial to Holocene relative sea level change in Assynt, northwest Scotland, UK (2015)
Journal Article
Hamilton, C., Lloyd, J., Barlow, N., Innes, J., Flecker, R., & Thomas, C. (2015). Late Glacial to Holocene relative sea level change in Assynt, northwest Scotland, UK. Quaternary Research, 84(2), 214-222. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yqres.2015.07.001

Relative sea-level change (RSL), from the Late Glacial through to the late Holocene, is reconstructed for the Assynt region, northwest Scotland, based on bio- and lithostratigraphical analysis. Four new radiocarbon-dated sea-level index points help c... Read More about Late Glacial to Holocene relative sea level change in Assynt, northwest Scotland, UK.

Palaeo sea-level and ice-sheet databases: problems, strategies and perspectives (2015)
Journal Article
Düsterhus, A., Rovere, A., Carlson, A., Barlow, N., Bradwell, T., Clark, J., …Törnqvist, T. (2015). Palaeo sea-level and ice-sheet databases: problems, strategies and perspectives. Climate of the past discussions, 11(3), 2389-2404. https://doi.org/10.5194/cpd-11-2389-2015

Sea-level and ice-sheet databases are essential tools for evaluating palaeoclimatic changes. However, database creation poses considerable challenges and problems related to the composition and needs of scientific communities creating raw data, the c...

Constraints on regional drivers of relative sea-level change around Cordova, Alaska (2015)
Journal Article
Garrett, E., Barlow, N., Cool, H., Kaufman, D., Shennan, I., & Zander, P. (2015). Constraints on regional drivers of relative sea-level change around Cordova, Alaska. Quaternary Science Reviews, 113, 48-59. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2014.12.002

New records of paleoenvironmental change from two lakes near Cordova, south central Alaska, combined with analysis of previously reported sediment sequences from the adjacent Copper River Delta, provide quantitative constraints on a range of Earth sy...

Sea-level changes in Iceland and the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation during the last half millennium (2015)
Journal Article
Saher, M., Gehrels, W., Barlow, N., Long, A., Haigh, I., & Blaauw, M. (2015). Sea-level changes in Iceland and the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation during the last half millennium. Quaternary Science Reviews, 108, 23-36. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2014.11.005

We present a new, diatom-based sea-level reconstruction for Iceland spanning the last ~500 years, and investigate the possible mechanisms driving the sea-level changes. A sea-level reconstruction from near the Icelandic low pressure system is importa...
