Abstract
Holocene relative sea-level changes on the margin of a glacio-isostatically uplifted area: an example from northern Caithness, Scotland
Susan Dawson
59 - 77
Evidence from intercalated clastic and organic sediments in the lower Wick River valley indicates a rapid rise in sea-level, culminating between c. 6900 BP and c. 5900 BP. Following a subsequent regression, the sediments record two further marine transgressions beginning at c. 4400 BP and c. 1200 BP. There is also evidence of a tsunami (tidal-wave) event between c. 7300 BP and c. 7000 BP.
Modelling long-term anthropogenic erosion of a loess cover: South Downs, UK

The Erosion-Productivity Impact Calculator (EPIC) model is used to simulate erosion on a hill slope in the Downs from 7000 BP to the present day. Results suggest that the major period of soil loss was between 4000 and 1800 BP, under conditions of gradually intensifying agriculture following permanent clearance.
Investigation of the environmental impact of remote volcanic activity on north Mayo, Ireland, during the mid-Holocene

Tephra deposits from peat bogs at Croaghaun East are dated by radiocarbon to around 4000 BP. Analysis of pollen, fungal spores, and testate amoebae from the peat is used to indicate the rate of environmental change around the time of tephra deposition. A change to wetter conditions is evinced, but the decline in pine trees (Pinus) is thought to have occurred c. 100 years before the eruption.
