  • Information for Students Taking AS/A-Level Geography at Latymer
    Information for students taking AS/A-level Geography at Latymer Thinking synoptically Preparing for an A-level in Geography shouldn’t be restricted to subscribing to the Geographical Association or Royal Geographical Society! The most successful Geographers are those that appreciate the subject for its synoptic qualities. Be mindful of the interconnectivity between different units of work in Geography, but also make use of the other subjects that you are studying. Don’t be afraid to bring into Geography lessons articles from The Economist or British Medical Journal, as well as regular snippets from Geography Review..! The following exercise gives you an opportunity to demonstrate your synoptic thinking skills whilst offering an insight into the level of work expected at A-level Geography. Task 1 Watch the BBC documentary 'Inside Out' (click here for YouTube link). Make notes on (a) examples of successful responses to the flood (b) examples of poor/lack of responses (c) socio-economic impacts of the flood (d) could more have been done to defend Morpeth? Task 2 Download the information booklet on flooding in Morpeth (See attached Documents) and print off the first seven pages. Construct an annotated diagram to explain how human and physical factors have contributed to flooding in Morpeth. Marks at A-level are award for annotating the arrows that link one box to another (avoid drawing a simple table of ‘human’ vs. ‘physical’ factors). Task 3 Looking back at the video clip and the information booklet, to what extent were human factors more important than physical factors in explaining why Morpeth was flooded? Discuss (250 words max.) You will be required to bring the completed tasks to show your teacher in the first Geography lesson.

  • Advisory Visit River Wansbeck and Hart Burn, Northumberland 30Th
    Advisory Visit River Wansbeck and Hart Burn, Northumberland 30th March, 2010 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust to the Hart Burn and River Wansbeck, Northumberland on 30th March 2010. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with James Cookson (the landowner), Tim Stafford and Gareth Pedley (Environment Agency Fisheries Officer). Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Catchment / Fishery Overview The River Wansbeck rises above Sweethope Lough on the edge of Forelaws Forest and runs through the towns of Morpeth and Ashington before discharging into the North Sea near Newbiggin-by-the-Sea. The Hart Burn is a tributary of the Wansbeck, flowing in a south-easterly direction from the Scot’s Gap area to the confluence near Meldon Park. During this visit, the river was inspected from the upstream limit on the Hart Burn down to the area downstream of Mill House Farm on the Wansbeck (Figure 1). These rivers flow through the Border Uplands Natural Area and more specifically the mid-Northumberland area, a plateau of undulating farmland which falls gradually towards the south underlain by sedimentary limestones, sandstones, siltstone rock and glacial till deposits (www.naturalengland.org.uk/Images/jca12_tcm6-5248.pdf). The approximately 8-km section of river visited is owned by James Cookson and is very lightly fished.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.
