Rapid laminated clastic alluviation associated with increased Little Ice Age flooding co-driven by climate variability and historic land-use in the middle Severn catchment, UK
Pears, Ben; Brown, Antony Gavin; Toms, Phillip S; Wood, Jamie; Pennington, Benjamin T; Jones, Richard (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-06)The analysis of exceptionally well-preserved visible clastic laminations in deep alluvial sediments at Kempsey, Worcestershire (UK), allows a new highresolution analysis of late-Holocene flood-history in the largest UK catchment, as well as local human response. At the sample site over 4.5m of sandy-silt overbank-alluvium accumulated on the floodplain and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ... -
A sub-centennial-scale optically stimulated luminescence chronostratigraphy and late Holocene flood history from a temperate river confluence
Pears, Ben; Brown, Antony; Toms, Philip; Wood, Jamie; Sanderson, David; Jones, Richard (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-18)River confluences can be metastable and contain valuable geological records of catchment response to decadal- to millennial-scale environmental change. However, in alluvial reaches, flood stratigraphies are particularly hard to date using 14C. In this paper, we use a novel combination of optically stimulated luminescence and multiproxy sedimentological analyses to provide a flood record for the ...
