  • Notice of High-Water Marks on the Banks of the River Tweed and Some of Its Tributaries; and Also of Drift Deposits in the Valley of the Tweed
    ( 513 ) XXV.—Notice of High-Water Marks on the Banks of the River Tweed and some of its Tributaries; and also of Drift Deposits in the Valley of the Tweed. By DAVID MILNE HOME of Wedderburn, LL.D. (Plates XXXV.-XXXVIII.) (Read June 7, 1875.) A few years ago, a memoir on high-water marks on the banks of the Rivers Earn and Teith, in Perthshire, by the Rev. THOMAS BROWN, was read in our Society, and published in our Transactions. The only other Scotch geologist, so far as I know, who has alluded to the existence of river terraces, much above the level of existing floods, is the late Dr ROBERT CHAMBERS. In his work, entitled " Ancient Sea Margins," Dr CHAMBERS specifies many Scotch rivers, in the valleys occupied by which, he had seen terraces, at considerable heights above the rivers and above the sea. The explanations of these high river terraces given by the Rev. Mr BROWN and by Dr CHAMBERS respectively, are different. I venture to entertain doubts respecting the soundness of both explanations; and as the subject is of some interest, it appears to me that farther inquiry is desirable. Dr CHAMBERS was under the belief that almost all the high-level terraces examined by him on the Tweed, Tay, Clyde, and Spey, were horizontal, and therefore not formed by rivers. He did not suggest, that they had been formed by lakes. He considered them sea beaches. The Rev. Mr BROWN, on the other hand, states that all the high-level terraces which he examined on the Rivers Earn, Teith, and their tributaries the Turrit, Keltie, and Ruchil, slope with the streams; and he ascribes their formation to river action.

  • River Response to Recent Environmental Change in the Yorkshire Ouse Basin, Northern England
    River response to recent environmental change in the Yorkshire Ouse basin, northern England. Sean Anthony Longfield, B.Sc. (H ons) 'N/ Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds School of Geography July 1998 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the w'ork of others II A b s t r a c t Longfield, S.A. 1998. River response to recent environmental change in the Yorkshire Ouse basin, northern England. University of Leeds, Ph.D. This study examines historical variations in flood frequency and magnitude in the Yorkshire Ouse basin, northern England, over the last 900 years. The causes of temporal and spatial variations in flooding are evaluated through investigation of climatic and land-use controls. Documentary evidence of flooding and climate suggests that a series of large floods between 1263 and 1360 were associated with climatic deterioration from the Medieval Optimum. A shift to generally milder conditions between 1361 and 1549 resulted in no floods being documented in the Ouse basin The frequency of large magnitude floods increased dramatically between 1550 and 1680, as a result of low temperatures, increased surface wetness, more frequent snowfall and a southward shift of prevailing storm tracks over middle latitudes, associated with the onset of the "Little Ice Age’. In contrast, during a wanner phase of the Little Ice Age, between 1681 and 1763, the frequency of localised summer flooding increased in the Ouse basin due to more frequent high intensity, short duration convective storms.

Resilient Communities is an initiative supported by local, scottish, and the UK Governments, the principles of which are, communities and individuals harnessing and developing local response and expertise to help themselves during an emergency in a way that complements the response of the emergency responders. Emergencies happen, and these can be severe weather, floods, fires, or major incidents involving transport etc. Preparing your community and your family for these types of events will make it easier to recover following the impact of an emergency. Being aware of the risks that you as a community or family may encounter, and who within your community might be able to assist you, could make your community better prepared to cope with an emergency. Local emergency responders will always have to prioritise those in greatest need during an emergency, especially where life is in danger.
