Maximum extent and readvance dynamics of the Irish Sea Ice Stream and Irish Sea Glacier since the Last Glacial Maximum (2021)
Journal Article
Scourse, J., Chiverrell, R., Smedley, R., Small, D., Burke, M., Saher, M., …Clark, C. (2021). Maximum extent and readvance dynamics of the Irish Sea Ice Stream and Irish Sea Glacier since the Last Glacial Maximum. Journal of Quaternary Science, 1-25. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.3313

The BRITICE‐CHRONO Project has generated a suite of recently published radiocarbon ages from deglacial sequences offshore in the Celtic and Irish seas and terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide and optically stimulated luminescence ages from adjacent onshore...

Timing and pace of ice-sheet withdrawal across the marine-terrestrial transition west of Ireland during the last glaciation (2021)
Journal Article
Ó Cofaigh, C., Callrd, S., Roberts, D., Chiverrell, R., Ballantyne, C., Evans, D., …Sacchetti, F. (2021). Timing and pace of ice-sheet withdrawal across the marine-terrestrial transition west of Ireland during the last glaciation. Journal of Quaternary Science, 36(5), 805-832. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.3295

Understanding the pace and drivers of marine-based ice-sheet retreat relies upon the integration of numerical ice-sheet models with observations from contemporary polar ice sheets and well-constrained palaeo-glaciological reconstructions. This paper... Read More about Timing and pace of ice-sheet withdrawal across the marine-terrestrial transition west of Ireland during the last glaciation.

Pattern, style and timing of British–Irish Ice Sheet advance and retreat over the last 45 000 years: evidence from NW Scotland and the adjacent continental shelf (2021)
Journal Article
Bradwell, T., Fabel, D., Clark, C. D., Chiverrell, R. C., Small, D., Smedley, R. K., …Ó Cofaigh, C. (2021). Pattern, style and timing of British–Irish Ice Sheet advance and retreat over the last 45 000 years: evidence from NW Scotland and the adjacent continental shelf. Journal of Quaternary Science, 36(5), 871 - 933. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.3296

Predicting the future response of ice sheets to climate warming and rising global sea level is important but difficult. This is especially so when fast-flowing glaciers or ice streams, buffered by ice shelves, are grounded on beds below sea level. Wh...

Retreat dynamics of the eastern sector of the British–Irish Ice Sheet during the last glaciation (2021)
Journal Article
Evans, D. J., Roberts, D. H., Bateman, M. D., Clark, C. D., Medialdea, A., Callard, L., …Bradley, S. L. (2021). Retreat dynamics of the eastern sector of the British–Irish Ice Sheet during the last glaciation. Journal of Quaternary Science, 36(5), 723-751. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.3275

The findings of BRITICE‐CHRONO Transect 2 through the North Sea Basin and eastern England are reported. We define ice‐sheet marginal oscillation between ~31 and 16 ka, with seven distinctive former ice‐sheet limits (L1–7) constrained by Bayesian stat...

A Detailed Record of Deglacial and Early Post-Glacial Fluvial Evolution: The River Ure in North Yorkshire, UK (2021)
Journal Article
Innes, J., Mitchell, W., O’Brien, C., Roberts, D., Rutherford, M., & Bridgland, D. (2021). A Detailed Record of Deglacial and Early Post-Glacial Fluvial Evolution: The River Ure in North Yorkshire, UK. Quaternary, 4(1), Article 9. https://doi.org/10.3390/quat4010009

The lower reaches of the River Ure, on the flanks of the Pennine Hills in northern England, contain sedimentary and erosional landforms that are a record of fluvial activity during deglaciation and valley-glacier retreat at the end of the last (Deven...
