    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Reconstructing Palaeoenvironments of the White Peak Region of Derbyshire, Northern England being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Hull by Simon John Kitcher MPhysGeog May 2014 Declaration I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own, except where otherwise stated, and that it has not been previously submitted in application for any other degree at any other educational institution in the United Kingdom or overseas. ii Abstract Sub-fossil pollen from Holocene tufa pool sediments is used to investigate middle – late Holocene environmental conditions in the White Peak region of the Derbyshire Peak District in northern England. The overall aim is to use pollen analysis to resolve the relative influence of climate and anthropogenic landscape disturbance on the cessation of tufa production at Lathkill Dale and Monsal Dale in the White Peak region of the Peak District using past vegetation cover as a proxy. Modern White Peak pollen – vegetation relationships are examined to aid semi- quantitative interpretation of sub-fossil pollen assemblages. Moss-polsters and vegetation surveys incorporating novel methodologies are used to produce new Relative Pollen Productivity Estimates (RPPE) for 6 tree taxa, and new association indices for 16 herb taxa. RPPE’s of Alnus, Fraxinus and Pinus were similar to those produced at other European sites; Betula values displaying similarity with other UK sites only. RPPE’s for Fagus and Corylus were significantly lower than at other European sites. Pollen taphonomy in woodland floor mosses in Derbyshire and East Yorkshire is investigated.

(2012) Making Space for Water in the Upper Derwent Valley: Phase 2. Annual Report: 2012 – 2013. Moors for the Future Partnership, Edale. Executive Summary Project management and coordination activities (Milestone 1) The main restoration activities of heather brashing, liming, seeding, fertilising and dam construction were all completed in the spring of 2012, as the first phase of the Making space for Water (MS4W) project gave way to the second. This also marked the beginning of the post-restoration phase of monitoring for hydrological response. The only remaining restoration activities completed after this time were plug planting of moorland species (outside the monitoring areas), a planned “top-up” treatment of lime and fertilizer and some “top-up gully blocks, again outside the monitored area. New equipment has been bought, based on recommendations by University of Manchester; this is to be used as spares for replacing faulty items in the field and also for additional data gathering requirements to support the modelling exercise. There have been a number of meetings with the Environment Agency, the University of Manchester and the University of Durham in order to further clarify and formalise the contractual basis of the relationship in terms of the hydrological research and the related PhD, in addition to the more recent modelling exercise.

  • Landscape-Strategy-Dark-Peak.Pdf
    www.peakdistrict.gov.uk 3: Dark Peak Peak District National Park Authority Dark Peak Dark Peak open moorland © Peak District National Park Authority Introduction The Dark Peak is a sparsely settled area of gritstone uplands lying at the southern end of the Pennine Hills. The area comprises an extensive upland plateau with steep gritstone slopes, sometimes with rocky edges, that drop away to lower lying slopes, wooded cloughs and deep valleys, some of which have been flooded to create large reservoirs. It contrasts sharply with the adjoining limestone uplands of the White Peak and is named on account of the dark hues created in the landscape by the peat moors and exposed gritstone. Whilst this landscape character area contrasts with the White Peak, the transition to other landscape character areas such as the Dark Peak Eastern and Western Fringe landscapes is much more gradual; these are landscapes of similar character but tend to be lower lying, more settled and more intensively managed than the Dark Peak with enclosed farmland rather than open moorland predominating. The Eastern Moors to the south-east of the Dark Peak are similar to it in character but lower lying with less deep peat creating a landscape that has been more obviously modified by people than the Dark Peak generally has. In the north, the moorland plateau of the Dark Peak continues into the Southern Pennines. 2 Landscape Strategy and Action Plan Peak District National Park Authority 3: Dark Peak such as the golden plover and the dunlin. On the lower moorland Physical influences slopes heather dominates, with varying amounts of bilberry, The Dark Peak is an extensive area of high moorland and adjacent cowberry and crowberry.
