Chapter 6 - SfM photogrammetry for GeoArchaeology
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020-04-16)Geoarchaeological studies have benefits from new technological developments in remote-sensing technologies that have become an integral and important part of the archeological researches. In particular, structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry is one of the most successful emerging techniques in high-resolution topography (HRT) and provides exceptionally fast, low-cost, and easy three-dimensional ... -
Early to Middle Bronze Age agricultural terraces in north-east England: Morphology, dating and cultural implications
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-06)Terracing is found widely in the Mediterranean and in other hilly and mountainous regions of the world. Yet while archaeological attention to these ‘mundane’ landscape features has grown, they remain understudied, particularly in Northern Europe. Here, the authors present a multidisciplinary study of terraces in the Breamish Valley, Northumberland. The results date their construction to the Early ... -
Ending the Cinderella status of terraces and lynchets in Europe: The geomorphology of agricultural terraces and implications for ecosystem services and climate adaptation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-20)Terraces and lynchets are ubiquitous worldwide and can provide increasingly important Ecosystem Services (ESs), which may be able to mitigate aspects of climate change. They are also a major cause of non-linearity between climate and erosion rates in agricultural systems as noted from alluvial and colluvial studies. New research in the ‘critical zone’ has shown that we must now treat soil production ... -
Soil organic carbon stabilization mechanisms and temperature sensitivity in old terraced soils
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-08)Being the most common human-created landforms, terrace construction has resulted in an extensive perturbation of the land surface. However, our mechanistic understanding of soil organic carbon (SOC) (de-)stabilization mechanisms and the persistence of SOC stored in terraced soils is far from complete. Here we explored the factors controlling SOC stability and the temperature sensitivity (<i>Q</i>< ...
