An exploration of the relationship between river behaviour and environmental change. The research involves a wide range of disciplines including geomorphology, geophysics, archaeology, palaeoecology, engineering and planning.
The context: fluvial archives of environmental change; alluvial systematics. Tectonic forcing: crustal instability and the fluvial record; the mass terrace sequence at Maastricht, SE Netherlands - evidence for 200m of late Neogene and Quaternary surface uplift; flow in the lower continental crust as a mechanism for the Quaternary uplift of the Rhenish Massif, northwest Europe. Climate forcing: records of Pleistocene and Holocene river behaviour. Geoarchaeological perspectives and the human impact. Modelling and monitoring of sediment fluxes and river channel dynamics.
