Coal-derived rates of atmospheric dust deposition during the Permian (2015)
Journal Article
Marshall, C., Large, D. J., & Heavens, N. G. (2016). Coal-derived rates of atmospheric dust deposition during the Permian. Gondwana Research, 31, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gr.2015.10.002

Despite widespread evidence for atmospheric dust deposition prior to the Quaternary, quantitative rate data remains sparse. As dust influences both climate and biological productivity, the absence of quantitative dust data limits the comprehensivenes...

Long-term reindeer grazing limits warming-induced increases in CO2 released by tundra heath soil: potential role of soil C quality (2015)
Journal Article
Väisänen, M., Sjogersten Turner, S., Large, D., Drage, T., & Stark, S. (2015). Long-term reindeer grazing limits warming-induced increases in CO2 released by tundra heath soil: potential role of soil C quality. Environmental Research Letters, 10(9), Article 094020. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/10/9/094020

© 2015 IOP Publishing Ltd. The current climate warming in the Arctic may increase the microbial degradation of vast pools of soil carbon (C); however, the temperature sensitivity of decomposition is often highly dependent on the quality of accumulate...

Geochemistry and petrology of palaeocene coals from Spitzbergen — Part 2: Maturity variations and implications for local and regional burial models (2015)
Journal Article
Marshall, C., Uguna, J., Large, D. J., Meredith, W., Jochmann, M., Friis, B., …Orheim, A. (2015). Geochemistry and petrology of palaeocene coals from Spitzbergen — Part 2: Maturity variations and implications for local and regional burial models. International Journal of Coal Geology, 143, 1-10. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coal.2015.03.013

The Central Tertiary Basin is an uplifted part of the North Barents Shelf and should be an ideal location to understand the thermal history, maximum burial depth and overburden thickness in this petroleum-rich area. Efforts to quantify the thermal hi...

Geochemistry and petrology of Palaeocene coals from Spitsbergen — Part 1: oil potential and depositional environment (2015)
Journal Article
Marshall, C., Large, D. J., Meredith, W., Snape, C. E., Uguna, C. N., Spiro, B. F., …Friis, B. (2015). Geochemistry and petrology of Palaeocene coals from Spitsbergen — Part 1: oil potential and depositional environment. International Journal of Coal Geology, 143, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coal.2015.03.006

Abundant oil prone coal (Type III kerogen) deposits are preserved within the high latitude, middle Palaeocene, Todalen member of the Central Tertiary Basin, Spitsbergen Island, Norwegian Arctic. The coals (Svea, Longyear, Svarteper and Askeladden sea... Read More about Geochemistry and petrology of Palaeocene coals from Spitsbergen — Part 1: oil potential and depositional environment.
