A dynamic landscape evolution modelling platform (CLiDE) is presented that allows a variety of Earth system interactions to be explored under differing environmental forcing factors. Representation of distributed surface and subsurface hydrology with...

Assessing riverine threats to heritage assets posed by future climate change through a geomorphological approach and predictive modelling in the Derwent Valley Mills WHS, UK (2015)
Journal Article
Howard, A. J., Knight, D., Coulthard, T., Hudson-Edwards, K., Kossoff, D., & Malone, S. (2016). Assessing riverine threats to heritage assets posed by future climate change through a geomorphological approach and predictive modelling in the Derwent Valley Mills WHS, UK. Journal of cultural heritage, 19, 387-394. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.culher.2015.11.007

Future climate change is likely to pose significant challenges for heritage management, especially in landscape settings, such as river valleys as the magnitude, intensity and nature of geomorphological processes alter in response to changing thresho...

Predicting uncertainty in sediment transport and landscape evolution - the influence of initial surface conditions (2015)
Journal Article
Hancock, G. R., Coulthard, T. J., & Lowry, J. B. C. (2016). Predicting uncertainty in sediment transport and landscape evolution - the influence of initial surface conditions. Computers & geosciences, 90(B), 117-130. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cageo.2015.08.014

© 2015. Numerical landscape evolution models were initially developed to examine natural catchment hydrology and geomorphology and have become a common tool to examine geomorphic behaviour over a range of time and space scales. These models all use a... Read More about Predicting uncertainty in sediment transport and landscape evolution - the influence of initial surface conditions.

Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder? (2015)
Journal Article
Ramirez, J. A., Baird, A. J., Coulthard, T. J., & Waddington, J. M. (2015). Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder?. Geophysical research letters, 42(9), 3371-3379. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015gl063469

Bubbling (ebullition) of greenhouse gases, particularly methane, from peatlands has been attributed to environmental forcings, such as changes in atmospheric pressure. However, observations from peat soils suggest that ebullition and environmental fo... Read More about Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder?.

Evaluating the importance of catchment hydrological parameters for urban surface water flood modelling using a simple hydro-inundation model (2015)
Journal Article
Yu, D., & Coulthard, T. J. (2015). Evaluating the importance of catchment hydrological parameters for urban surface water flood modelling using a simple hydro-inundation model. Journal of hydrology, 524(May), 385-400. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2015.02.040

The influence of catchment hydrological processes on urban flooding is often considered through river discharges at a source catchment outlet, negating the role of other upstream areas that may add to the flooding. Therefore, where multiple entry poi... Read More about Evaluating the importance of catchment hydrological parameters for urban surface water flood modelling using a simple hydro-inundation model.

In search of ‘lost’ knowledge and outsourced expertise in flood risk management (2015)
Journal Article
Haughton, G., Bankoff, G., & Coulthard, T. J. (2015). In search of ‘lost’ knowledge and outsourced expertise in flood risk management. Transactions - Institute of British Geographers, 40(3), 375-386. https://doi.org/10.1111/tran.12082

This paper examines the parallel discourses of ‘lost’ local flood expertise and the growing use of commercial consultancies to outsource aspects of flood risk work. We critically examine the various claims and counter-claims about lost, local and ext... Read More about In search of ‘lost’ knowledge and outsourced expertise in flood risk management.

Simulating tidal and storm surge hydraulics with a simple 2D inertia based model, in the Humber Estuary, U.K (2015)
Journal Article
Skinner, C. J., Coulthard, T. J., Parsons, D. R., Ramirez, J. A., Mullen, L., & Manson, S. (2015). Simulating tidal and storm surge hydraulics with a simple 2D inertia based model, in the Humber Estuary, U.K. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 155(March), 126-136. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2015.01.019

The hydraulic modelling of tidal estuarine environments has been largely limited to complex 3D models that are computationally expensive. This makes them unsuitable for applications which make use of live data to make real/near time forecasts, such a...
