The Quaternary of Northumberland, Durham and North Yorkshire: Field Guide
Research output: Book/Report › Book › peer-review
The north of England encompasses vast swathes of the British countryside, comprising a diverse range of uplands, moorlands and coastal environs, glacigenic landforms, major incised river systems, and displaying its share of human-environment interactions. However, it is surprising that until recently the region’s glacial history and stratigraphy was developed more than 100 years ago, with Holocene fluvial developments and landscape histories being the only focus of research during the last 20 or so years. Nevertheless, in the last 10 years there has been a resurgence of interest in the glacial and fluvial landscapes of the area, and a significant volume of research has been undertaken.
