School of GeoSciences
Browse by
The School of GeoSciences is organised into the following Research Institutes:
-
Earth and Planetary Science: geology and geophysics relevant to resources, natural hazards, earth dynamics, and the environment.
-
Geography and the Lived Environment: understanding connections between people, society and the environment.
-
Global Change: understanding of past, present and future changes in the Earth system through measurements, theory, and computational modelling.
The School has a very diverse research portfolio, with researchers leading or contributing to a wide range of groups, centres and multi-institutional consortia.

HadCM3 model data used in the article "Seasonal long-term trends during the last Millennium strongly influenced by orbital forcing" by Lucie Luecke, Andrew Schurer, Rob Wilson and Gabriele Hegerl
HadCM3 model simulation including orbital forcing only from 12/850 to 11/1850. The dataset is divided into atmosphere monthly mean and ocean monthly mean files. All files are in netcdf format. Abstract: Orbital forcing ... -
Supporting material for "Orbital forcing strongly influences seasonal temperature trends during the last millennium"
Abstract: Insolation changes caused by the axial precession induce millennial trends in last millennium temperature, varying with season and latitude. A characteristic seasonal trend pattern can be detected in both insolation ... -

Structural diversity and tree density drives variation in the biodiversity-ecosystem function relationship of woodlands and savannas
Positive biodiversity-ecosystem function relationships (BEFRs) have been widely documented, but it is unclear if BEFRs should be expected in disturbance-driven systems. Disturbance may limit competition and niche ... -
