Distribution of Landslides and Geotechnical Properties Within the Hampshire Basin
Distribution of landslides and geotechnical properties within the Hampshire Basin Kwanjai Yuangdetkla, Andy Gibson & Malcolm Whitworth University of Portsmouth, Portsmouth, UK Claire Foster, David Entwisle & Catherine Pennington British Geological Survey, Nottingham UK ABSTRACT This paper outlines the sedimentary sequences and geotechnical properties of the Hampshire Basin, a basin of filled with 700 m of Palaeogene clays, silts, sands and limestones in southern England. The paper presents results so far of a study to synthesize relevant geological and geotechnical data and relate these to the nature of the landslides in this basin. The study has found that stratigraphic sequences and geotechnical properties vary considerably across the basin owing to basin morphology and depositional environments which are correspond to complex paleogeography and tectonic movements during the Tertiary. Over-consolidated clays with low residual shear strengths are extensive on moderately steep slopes and prone to landsliding, especially on over-steepened coastal sections. Landslides vary from mudflows through mudslides, rotational landslides and minor falls. Landslide characteristics are strongly influenced by lithology but gradient appears to be the controlling factor in many cases. The presences of weak strata (clays, lignite, laminated layers), the pre-existing shear surface, the lithological interface (sand overlying clay) play important roles to locally control the position of the shear surface and the type of movements. At a basin scale, inland landslides are associated with the development of drainage system during and since the Tertiary. 1 INTRODUCTION structures trend east-west or northeast-southwest (Melville and Freshney, 1982). Locally, the complex 2 The Hampshire Basin underlies 3 400km of the mainland reactivation of basement faulting has produced many of Southern England and the northern half of the nearby local structures forming gentle hills and valleys such as Isle of Wight (Figure 1). -

A Review of the Decapod Crustaceans from the Tertiary of the Isle of Wight, Hampshire, U

Collins** * 4, Argyll Street, Ryde, Isle of Wight, Hampsire, England<[email protected]> ** 8, Shaws Cottages, Perry Rise, London, SE23 2QN, and The Natural History Museum, London, SW7 5BD, England Abstract To the known decapod crustaceans of the Tertiary deposits of the Isle of Wight, Hampshire, the Early Eocene species, Basinotopus lamarkii (Desmarest) and Dromilites bucklandi Bell are introduced from the mainland, as are Glyphithyreus wetherelli (Bell), Rhachiosoma bispinosum Woodward, Coeloma (Litoricola) dentate (Woodward), Xanthilites bowerbanki Bell, and Xanthopsis unispinosa (M'Coy), the stratigrahic range of which has been extended to the London Clay on the Island. The development of an anomaly concerning Zanthopsis unispinosa, also present, if not peculiar to the island, is well established. A carapace of Harpactocarcinus sp. from this horizon is the first British record for the genus. Late Eocene species new to the island are Goniocypoda quaylei Crane, Orthakrolophus depressus? (Quayle and Collins) and Typilobus belli Quayle and Collins. Three new genera and species are described from the Late Eocene Headon Hill Formation; a callianassid, Vecticallichirus abditus; a goneplacid, Gonioplacoides minuta, and a hexapodid, Headonipus tuberculosus. New, superior material of the Late Eocene species, Typilobus obscurus Quayle and Collins, from the type locality, Colwell Bay necessitates a new description. A table of all known Tertiary species of decapod crustaceans from the Isle of Wight is appended. -
