The record from British Quaternary river systems within the context of global fluvial archives. (2010)
Journal Article
Bridgland, D. (2010). The record from British Quaternary river systems within the context of global fluvial archives. Journal of Quaternary Science, 25(4), https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1383

Data amassed in the past decade on Quaternary fluvial archives has allowed comparison across widely separated regions of the world. Meanwhile there has been a new impetus for research on British sequences, as a result particularly of the Aggregates L...

Extrinsic and intrinsic forcing of fluvial development : understanding natural and anthropogenic influences. (2010)
Journal Article
Vandenberghe, J., Cordier, S., & Bridgland, D. (2010). Extrinsic and intrinsic forcing of fluvial development : understanding natural and anthropogenic influences. Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 121(2), 107-112. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pgeola.2010.05.002

This paper introduces a special issue arising from the biennial meeting of the Fluvial Archives Group (FLAG) that took place in September 2008 in Budapest, Hungary. Combining a two-day conference and three-day field excursion, this meeting provided a...

The role of glacio-isostasy in the formation of post-glacial river terraces in relation to the MIS 2 ice limit: evidence from northern England. (2010)
Journal Article
Bridgland, D., Westaway, R., Howard, A., Innes, J., Long, A., Mitchell, W., …White, T. (2010). The role of glacio-isostasy in the formation of post-glacial river terraces in relation to the MIS 2 ice limit: evidence from northern England. Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 121(2), 113-127. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pgeola.2009.11.004

In recent years it has been demonstrated that the formation of long-timescale river terrace sequences, which are generally found in areas beyond the extent of most if not all of the Middle and Late Pleistocene ice sheets, has invariably been a respon...

The construction of a palaeodischarge time series for use in a study of fluvial system development of the Middle to Late Pleistocene Upper Thames. (2010)
Journal Article
Stemerdink, C., Maddy, D., Bridgland, D., & Veldkamp, A. (2010). The construction of a palaeodischarge time series for use in a study of fluvial system development of the Middle to Late Pleistocene Upper Thames. Journal of Quaternary Science, 25(4), https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1375

Recently many studies have attempted to model fluvial system development over a variety of geographical and temporal scales. It is generally recognised that one of the main problems, especially in studies over longer timescales (>100 ka), is the reco...

Evidence from the Trent terrace archive, Lincolnshire, UK, for lowland glaciation of Britain during the Middle and Late Pleistocene. (2010)
Journal Article
White, T., Bridgland, D., Westaway, R., Howard, A., & White, M. (2010). Evidence from the Trent terrace archive, Lincolnshire, UK, for lowland glaciation of Britain during the Middle and Late Pleistocene. Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 121(2), 141-153. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pgeola.2010.05.001

The late Middle Pleistocene fluvial terrace sequence of the lower Trent system, Lincolnshire (eastern England), provides an excellent record of environmental change, including evidence for the last two interglacial episodes. It also provides importan... Read More about Evidence from the Trent terrace archive, Lincolnshire, UK, for lowland glaciation of Britain during the Middle and Late Pleistocene..

Timing and depositional environments of a Middle Pleistocene glaciation of northeast England: New evidence from Warren House Gill, County Durham (2010)
Journal Article
Davies, B., Roberts, D., Bridgland, D., Ó Cofaigh, C., Riding, J., Demarchi, B., …Pawley, S. (2010). Timing and depositional environments of a Middle Pleistocene glaciation of northeast England: New evidence from Warren House Gill, County Durham. Quaternary Science Reviews, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2010.02.003

At various times during the Quaternary, north-eastern England was a zone of confluence between dynamic ice lobes sourced from the Pennines, northern Scotland, the Cheviots, and Scandinavia. The region thus has some of the most complex exposures of Mi...

Causes, consequences and chronology of large-magnitude palaeoflows in Middle and Late Pleistocene river systems of northwest Europe (2010)
Journal Article
Westaway, R., & Bridgland, D. (2010). Causes, consequences and chronology of large-magnitude palaeoflows in Middle and Late Pleistocene river systems of northwest Europe. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 35(9), 1071-1094. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1968

This study examines the record of high-palaeoflow phases in river systems in northwest Europe, investigating their causes (whether due to ‘unique’ events, such as the formation of the Dover Strait, or as ‘characteristic’ consequences of climate chang...
