An evaluation of Mesozoic rift-related magmatism on the margins of the Labrador Sea: Implications for rifting and passive margin asymmetry (2016)
Journal Article
Peace, A., McCaffrey, K., Imber, J., Phethean, J., Nowell, G., Gerdes, K., & Dempsey, E. (2016). An evaluation of Mesozoic rift-related magmatism on the margins of the Labrador Sea: Implications for rifting and passive margin asymmetry. Geosphere, 12(6), 1701-1724. https://doi.org/10.1130/GES01341.1

The Labrador Sea is a small (∼900 km wide) ocean basin separating southwest Greenland from Labrador, Canada. It opened following a series of rifting events that began as early as the Late Triassic or Jurassic, culminating in a brief period of seafloo...

Hadley circulation and precipitation changes controling black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway (2016)
Journal Article
Armstrong, H. A., Wagner, T., Herringshaw, L. G., Farnsworth, A. J., Lunt, D. J., Harland, M., Imber, J., Loptson, C., & Atar, E. F. (2016). Hadley circulation and precipitation changes controling black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway. Paleoceanography, 31(8), 1041-1053. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015pa002911

New climate simulations using the HadCM3L model with a paleogeography of the Late Jurassic (155.5 Ma) and proxy-data corroborate that warm and wet tropical-like conditions reached as far north as the UK sector of the Jurassic Boreal Seaway (~35°N). T... Read More about Hadley circulation and precipitation changes controling black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway.

Shifting landscapes: from coalface to quick sand? Teaching geography, earth and environmental sciences in UK higher education (2016)
Journal Article
Dyer, S., Walkington, H., Williams, R., Morton, K., & Wyse, S. (2016). Shifting landscapes: from coalface to quick sand? Teaching geography, earth and environmental sciences in UK higher education. Area, 48(3), 308-316. https://doi.org/10.1111/area.12261

In this paper we examine contemporary academic working lives, with particular reference to teaching-only and teaching-focused academics. We argue that intensification in the neoliberal university has significantly shifted the structure of academic ca... Read More about Shifting landscapes: from coalface to quick sand?

Rethinking green entrepreneurship - fluid narratives of the green economy (2016)
Journal Article
O'Neill, K., & Gibbs, D. (2016). Rethinking green entrepreneurship - fluid narratives of the green economy. Environment & planning. A, 48(9), 1727-1749. https://doi.org/10.1177/0308518X16650453

Green entrepreneurs have been seen as key drivers for a transition to a green economy. However, there has been limited in-depth qualitative empirical research with green entrepreneurs to date, focusing instead on typologies categorising certain ‘type...

Climate warming, euxinia and carbon isotope perturbations during the Carnian (Triassic) Crisis in South China (2016)
Journal Article
Sun, Y., Wignall, P., Joachimski, M., Bond, D., Grasby, S., Lai, X., Wang, L., Zhang, Z., & Sun, S. (2016). Climate warming, euxinia and carbon isotope perturbations during the Carnian (Triassic) Crisis in South China. Earth and planetary science letters, 444, 88-100. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2016.03.037

The Carnian Humid Episode (CHE), also known as the Carnian Pluvial Event, and associated biotic changes are major enigmas of the Mesozoic record in western Tethys. We show that the CHE also occurred in eastern Tethys (South China), suggestive of a mu...

Journal of the Geological Society, 173(3), 457-473. https://doi.org/10.1144/jgs2015-118

The Devonian Orcadian Basin in northern Scotland belongs to a regionally linked system of post-Caledonian continental basins extending northwards to western Norway and eastern Greenland. Extensional fault systems that cut the Orcadian Basin sequences...

Geological magazine, 154(2), 247-264. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0016756815001065

The stratigraphic variability and geochemistry of Llandovery/Wenlock (L/W) Series boundary sediments in Poland reveals that hemipelagic sedimentation under an anoxic/euxinic water column was interrupted by low density bottom currents or detached dilu...

The provenance of Taklamakan desert sand (2016)
Journal Article

Sand migration in the vast Taklamakan desert within the Tarim Basin (Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous region, PR China) is governed by two competing transport agents: wind and water, which work in diametrically opposed directions. Net aeolian transport is... Read More about The provenance of Taklamakan desert sand.
