The Glacial Deposits at Upper Sundon Bedfordshire

These notes are based on a photographic record, made between 1950 and 1977, of the glacial deposits exposed in the workings of the Sundon Cement and Lime Works in south Bedfordshire. The site is...

Variability in the El Nino-Southern Oscillation through a Glacial-Interglacial Cycle

The Dalradian 'Snowball Earth' - Use of Stable Isotopes to Correlate Glacial Events and Neoproterozoic Stratigraphy of Scotland and Ireland

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. The 'snowball Earth' theory has been the subject of widespread media attention, particularly its lively defence by key proponent, Prof. Paul Hoffman. This period of...

Compilation of sediment core data from the glacial North Pacific, sourced from the literature. (NERC grant NE/N011716/1)

Collection of North Pacific core-top foraminifera census data. Grant abstract: The geological record offers an invaluable window into the different ways earth's climate can operate. The most recent...

Late Glacial Sea Level Minima in the Western British Isles (NERC Grant NE/H024069/1)

Due to differential loading of ice on Britain and Ireland the glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) response and therefore sea-level record will vary with distance from the centre of the British Irish...
