Were rivers flowing across the Sahara during the last interglacial? Implications for human migration through Africa. (2013)
Journal Article
Coulthard, T. J., Ramirez, J. A., Barton, N., Rogerson, M., & Brücher, T. (2013). Were rivers flowing across the Sahara during the last interglacial? Implications for human migration through Africa. PLoS ONE, 8(9), 0-0. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0074834

Human migration north through Africa is contentious. This paper uses a novel palaeohydrological and hydraulic modelling approach to test the hypothesis that under wetter climates c.100,000 years ago major river systems ran north across the Sahara to...

Integrating the LISFLOOD-FP 2D hydrodynamic model with the CAESAR model: implications for modelling landscape evolution (2013)
Journal Article
Coulthard, T. J., Neal, J. C., Bates, P. D., Ramirez, J., de Almeida, G. A., & Hancock, G. R. (2013). Integrating the LISFLOOD-FP 2D hydrodynamic model with the CAESAR model: implications for modelling landscape evolution. Earth surface processes and landforms : the journal of the British Geomorphological Research Group, 38(15), 1897-1906. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.3478

Landscape evolution models (LEMs) simulate the geomorphic development of river basins over long time periods and large space scales (100s-1000s of years, 100s of km2). Due to these scales they have been developed with simple steady flow models that e...
