Beach development, sediment budget and coastal erosion at Holderness.
… exist among offshore conditions, beach sediment transport and morphology, and till cliff erosion. Modelled and measured sediment transport rates established for the Holderness coast are similar to those on comparable coasts elsewhere. The direction of sediment drift depends on wave …

Determination of sediment provenance at drift sites using hydrogen isotopes in lipids
… are exceedingly rare. Rapidly deposited ocean sediments provide the best archive for studying these events through geologic time, but such sites in the open ocean are limited to sediment drift deposits such as the Bermuda Rise in the northwest Atlantic. Using multiple climate proxies in a …

Composition and characteristics of particles in the ocean : evidence for present day resuspension
… in the water column and the underlying surface sediments verifies the occurrence of local, present-day resuspension in the deep sea. The location of the major portion of this work was the South Iceland Rise, a region influenced by the flow of Norwegian Sea Overflow Water. Measured current …

The Quaternary evolution of the mid-Norwegian continental margin
… in enhanced erosion on the shelf and increased sediment flux to the adjacent continental slope, with rapid shelf edge progradation and associated changes in margin architecture. The structural high of the Vøring Plateau, characterised by initially low (1-2º) slope gradients and reduced …

Cenozoic deep-water agglutinated foraminifera in the North Atlantic
… foraminifera have been recognized in Paleogene sediments from North Atlantic and Tethyan basins. This unified taxonomic data base enables the first general synthesis of biostratigraphic, paleobiogeographic and paleobathymetric patterns in flysch-type agglutinated assemblages from upper …
