A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

New Schmidt hammer exposure‐age dating calibrations for the Last Glacial Termination in NW Scotland: Development and application to undated Torridon Group sandstone surfaces in Wester Ross

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An understanding of the terrestrial extent, retreat dynamics and climate–glacier coupling of ice masses during the Last Glacial Termination (LGT, ~18–11 ka) is often limited by a fragmentary geomorphological record and is dependent on precise, accurate and robust dating frameworks.

The Role of Regional and Local Structure in a Late Ordovician (Edenian) Foreland Platform-to-Basin Succession Inboard of the Taconic Orogen, Central Canada

open access: yesGeosciences, 2013
The Upper Ordovician (Edenian) Lindsay Formation of the Ottawa Embayment represents the final stage of carbonate platform development in the Taconic foreland periphery inboard of the northern Appalachian orogen.

A new piece in the puzzle: The palaeoecological significance of bryozoans over 7000 years in Daidokutsu Cave (Okinawa, Japan)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Submarine caves are cryptic, climatically sensitive habitats with long‐term ecological dynamics that are poorly understood. We present the first palaeoecological analysis of bryozoans from Daidokutsu Cave (Okinawa, Japan), based on a sediment core spanning approximately the last 7000 years.

Darriwilian Saucrorthis Fauna: implications for the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE) [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014
The Saucrorthis Fauna is a brachiopod-dominated shelly fauna developed in relatively deeper-water benthic regimes of a few peri-Gondwana terranes (e.g.

Clues of ancient incomplete lineage sorting during bivalve evolution undermine support for Heterodonta

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract A long‐standing challenge in phylogenomics has been the resolution of relationships originated from ancient radiations. In these cases, phenomena such as incomplete lineage sorting can increase the support for conflicting resolutions. Most of the diversity in the Class Bivalvia originated during an Ordovician radiation; indeed, several deep ...
