Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 119(2), 898-913. https://doi.org/10.1002/2013jc009008

Submarine channel systems transport vast amounts of terrestrial sediment into the deep sea. Understanding the dynamics of the gravity currents that create these systems, and in particular, how these flows interact with and form bends, is fundamental...

Sage (Eds.), Food Transgressions: Making Sense of Contemporary Food Politics (61-81). Ashgate. https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315582702

The concept of the moral economy directs attention to the moral and ethical frameworks through which everyday decisions are framed and enacted. This chapter shows that by exposing the very real differences in the priorities and actions of EarthShare... Read More about Greater than the sum of the parts?

Anastomosing reach control on hydraulics and sediment distribution on the Sabie River, South Africa (2014)
Journal Article
Entwistle, N., Heritage, G., Tooth, S., & Milan, D. (2014). Anastomosing reach control on hydraulics and sediment distribution on the Sabie River, South Africa. Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 367, 215-219. https://doi.org/10.5194/piahs-367-215-2015

Rivers in the Kruger National Park, South Africa, have variable degrees of bedrock and alluvial influence. Pre-2000 aerial imagery for the Sabie River (catchment area 6320 km2) reveals downstream alternations from alluvial single thread or braided, t...

Long-term flood controls on semi-arid river form: Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers, eastern South Africa (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Heritage, G., Tooth, S., Entwistle, N., & Milan, D. Long-term flood controls on semi-arid river form: Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers, eastern South Africa

Rivers in the Kruger National Park, eastern South Africa, are characterised by bedrock-influenced ‘macrochannels’ containing variable alluvial thicknesses and riparian vegetation assemblages. Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers suggests that... Read More about Long-term flood controls on semi-arid river form: Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers, eastern South Africa.

Magnetic tracing of fine-sediment over pool-riffle morphology (2013)
Journal Article
Milan, D. J., & Large, A. R. (2014). Magnetic tracing of fine-sediment over pool-riffle morphology. CATENA, 115, 134-149. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.catena.2013.11.003

Field studies documenting fine-sediment (< 2 mm) transport in gravel-bed rivers are rare. For the first time in a fluvial environment, a technique that enhances the magnetic susceptibility of sand is used to trace its longitudinal dispersion and stor...

Earth-Science Reviews, 126, 300-320. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2013.08.012

We examine mid- to late Holocene centennial-scale climate variability in Ireland using proxy data from peatlands, lakes and a speleothem. A high degree of between-record variability is apparent in the proxy data and significant chronological uncertai... Read More about Centennial-scale climate change in Ireland during the Holocene.

Geographical imaginations, public education and the everyday worlds of Fascist Italy (2013)
Journal Article

This article explores the phenomena of geographical imaginations and their seldom-noted promotion within various corners of Fascist Italy. Imagined geographies are socially constructed understandings of other places and regions and, as such, they are...

For almost half a century, it has been suspected that hydraulic jumps, which consist of a sudden decrease in downstream velocity and increase in flow thickness, are an important feature of submarine density currents such as turbidity currents and deb...

Robotic or automatic milking systems (AMS) are novel technologies that take over the labor of dairy farming and reduce the need for human-animal interactions. Because robotic milking involves the replacement of 'conventional' twice-a-day milking mana...
