A multi-proxy investigation of human–environment interactions from a coastal marsh in south-west England, UK
The window of opportunity
High magnitude storms have impacted coastal maritime communities, instigating national government responses. Storm catastrophes can open a ‘window of opportunity’ that enables the implementation of new long‐term disaster risk reduction measures. Analysis of historical storm events using written newspaper records identified the Royal Charter storm of 1859 as a catastrophe that opened a window of opportunity. The resulting actions prompted the firs…
A multidisciplinary investigation of Storms Ciara and Dennis, February 2020
High magnitude storms have periodically impacted the communities of Western Britain and this storm threat is predicted to increase with climate change. Understanding the factors that contribute to storm catastrophe is essential to mitigate the effects of future storms. This multidisciplinary study collectively analyses meteorological, tidal gauge and newspaper data from Storms Ciara and Dennis in February 2020 to assess the environmental, social …
Disentangling Holocene Climate Change and Human Impact from Palaeoenvironmental Records from the Scottish West Coast
Phases of rapid climate change throughout the early to mid Holocene coincide with regional human population expansion in Scotland and North-West Europe. Palaeoenvironmental signals of climate and anthropogenically driven vegetation changes can therefore be difficult to separate. To identify whether it is possible to distinguish potential signatures of anthropogenic clearance and agricultural activities from climatic drivers of landscape change in…
System responses to Holocene relative sea-level rise and sediment supply in a macrotidal estuary
Estuaries are at the interface of marine and terrestrial systems and as such, are subject to environmental change arising from multiple driving mechanisms, with the interplay between the dominant controls varying spatially and temporally. Relative sea-level (RSL) change and sediment supply can play a significant role in driving environmental change. This study examines the relative influence of these drivers during the Holocene. Biostratigraphic …
Documenting a thousand years of environmental and anthropogenic changes on mangroves on the Bangkok coast, the upper Gulf of Thailand
Saltmarsh archives of vegetation and land use change from Big River Marsh, SW Newfoundland, Canada
Pollen and plant macrofossils are often well-preserved in coastal sediments, providing a palaeoenvironmental record of sea-level and landscape change. In this study, we examine the pollen and plant macrofossil assemblages of a well-dated saltmarsh sediment core from southwest Newfoundland, Canada, to establish recent coastal vegetation and land use change, to increase the knowledge of anthropogenic activities in the area and develop pollen chrono…
Mangrove dynamics and environmental changes on Koh Chang, Thailand during the last millennium
Climate Change and Cultural Heritage
This paper proposes a new framework for calculating vulnerability indices within archaeological resource management on a landscape-scale. Current approaches consider archaeological sites in isolation from their context within the historic landscape. The new framework advocated in this article assesses the vulnerability of landscape character areas, as defined through historic landscape characterization. This framework uses a two-step vulnerabilit…
An 800 year record of mangrove dynamics and human activities in the upper Gulf of Thailand
Radiocarbon dating of mangrove sediments to constrain Holocene relative sea-level change on Zanzibar in the southwest Indian Ocean
Mangrove sedimentary deposits are sensitive to changes in sea level and can be used to reconstruct mid- to late Holocene sea-level fluctuations in intermediate and far-field locations, distant to the former polar ice sheets. However, they can be difficult to date using 14 C because mangrove sediment can contain mixtures of carbon of different ages. The two main potential causes of error are younger mangrove roots penetrating down through the sedi…
Holocene mangrove dynamics from Unguja Ukuu, Zanzibar
Holocene mangrove dynamics and environmental change in the Rufiji Delta, Tanzania
A sediment-based multiproxy palaeoecological approach to the environmental archaeology of lake dwellings (crannogs), central Ireland
A multiproxy study of Ballywillin Crannog, Lough Kinale, central Ireland is presented. The methodology used reveals the wealth of information that a multiproxy approach can contribute in lake settlement studies. Plant macrofossils, pollen and spores, diatoms, chironomids and Coleoptera from a lake core are used to reconstruct local and regional vegetation change and lake history to establish the age and function of the crannog. The palaeoecologic…
