After more than half a century of research, the dynamics salt tectonics in North Sea remains contentious issue with unresolved questions regarding triggering and driving mechanisms. The is now covered by high-quality 3D seismic datasets which allow new insights into interplay between sedimentation. These are both regional geological, societal exploration interest as well widely applicable analogues for frontier regions such South Atlantic basins. A high quality volume from Netherlands used...
Geometries of Early Pleistocene [2.58 to 0.78 million years (Ma) ago] ice sheets in northwest Europe are poorly constrained but required improve our understanding past ocean-atmosphere-cryosphere coupling. Ice believed have changed their response orbital forcing, becoming, from about 1.2 Ma ago, volumetrically larger and longer-lived. We present a multiproxy data set for the North Sea, extending over kilometer below present-day seafloor, which demonstrates spatially extensive glaciation...
The onset of the Quaternary (2.58 Ma) corresponds to significant paleo-environmental events, such as intensification and southward extension Northern Hemisphere glaciation. In North Sea Basin a late Cenozoic succession has been identified high-resolution archive changes during Pliocene Pleistocene. However, identification base long-standing issue owing lack stratigraphic calibration. This study incorporates continuous, regional 3D seismic data with high-quality chronostratigraphic markers...
This document aims to agree on a broad, international strategy for the implementation of open scholarship that meets needs different national and regional communities but works globally.Scholarly research can be idealised as an inspirational process advancing our collective knowledge benefit all humankind. However, current practices often struggle with range tensions, in part due fact this (or “commons”) ideal conflicts competitive system which most scholars work, because much infrastructure...
Development of the continental shelf has accelerated significantly as nations around world seek to harness offshore renewable energy. Many areas marked for development align with submerged palaeolandscapes. Poorly understood and difficult protect, these vulnerable, prehistoric landscapes provide specific challenges heritage management. Indeed, there now appears be a schism between what underwater cultural policy intends it is achieving in practice. Shortcomings international national...
This paper describes some results of the research undertaken over Brown Bank area during recent (2018/2019) geoarchaeological surveys in North Sea which included seismic imaging, shallow (vibro)coring and dredging. It examines benefits simultaneous high-resolution (0.5 – 1 m) ultra-high-resolution (10–20 cm) survey techniques a staged approach to resolving submerged Holocene landscape highest possible detail for purpose targeted prospecting archaeological material from Mesolithic Doggerland....

Abstract Plio-Pleistocene records of ice-rafted detritus suggest NW European ice sheets regularly reached coastlines. However, these provide limited insight on the frequency, extent and dynamics delivering detritus. Three-dimensional reflection seismic data glaciated margin have previously documented buried landforms that inform us uncertainties. This paper reviews combines existing with new geomorphological observations to catalogue landform occurrence along considers how they relate sheet...
Treatment of the unsaturated cluster [Os3(CO)7(PhC2Ph)(dppm)]1(dppm = Ph2PCH2PPh2) with P-donors gave saturated monoadducts [Os3(CO)7(PhC2Ph)(dppm)L][L PBu32, PPh33, PMe2Ph 4 or P(OMe)35]. Spectroscopic studies have established that these adducts exist in three isomeric forms ratio which depends on polarity solvent used reaction. X-Ray crystallographic determinations two isomers PBu3 adduct, 2a and 2c, showed phosphine to be co-ordinated different metal centres isomers. The P(OMe)3 5b 5c...
Solid-state 1H and D NMR measurements have been made for all transition-metal carbonyl clusters containing interstitial hydrides/deuterides previously characterised by neutron diffraction. There is a close agreement between the values of δ(1H/D) in solution solid state except [Co6H(CO)15]–. The δ(1H) hydrides are range δ+ 18.5 to –26.8; shift high field shown be due an increasing displacement H from centre metal octahedral cavity, consistent with surface tensor harmonic theory. Whereas...
Plio-Pleistocene records of ice-rafted detritus suggest that northwest European ice sheets regularly advanced across palaeo-coastlines. However, while these are important, they provide only a limited insight on the frequency, extent, and dynamics were delivering detritus. Three-dimensional reflection seismic data glaciated margin have previously documented buried glacial landforms inform us uncertainties. This work combines existing landform with new geomorphological observations to...

Abstract Since the last Special Publication on seismic geomorphology, application of data has grown substantially, revolutionizing our understanding basin evolution in process. The papers presented here provide an insight into direction travel for geomorphological analyses and how science evolved since 2007. New methods collection, new processing visualization, integration types complementary data, all have played a role maximizing potential palaeo-environmental insights that can be derived...
<p>During the late glacial and early Holocene, vast areas of dry land stretched from British Isles to continental Europe over what is now southern part North Sea. Whilst it known that this landscape was inhabited, little about cultures lived there surrounding environment. This study focuses on Brown Bank area, between UK Dutch coasts, with its significant 25 km long 10-15 m high ridge seabed which has provided many Mesolithic ex-situ finds. However, all these finds have been...
<p>New high-resolution seismic data (Sparker) and very-high-resolution parametric echosounder (PES) acquired in an area of the southern North Sea (the Flemish Bight) reveal its Quaternary stratigraphy unprecedented detail. The identified seismo-stratigraphic units geomorphological features have been examined with view to better understand evolution Sea.</p><p>Seven acoustic were recognised, including Lower Pleistocene deltaic sediments, Eemian lower...
The spatial extent and quality of seismic subsurface datasets have substantially improved in recent years due to traditional hydrocarbon activities the emergence green technologies like offshore wind. This Special Publication investigates opportunities for (re)investigating past environments using geomorphology its integration with other datasets.
