SUMMARY:Flamborough: Sewerby – South Landing
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Richard Myerscough. FEAST \nChalk succession through the Upper Flamborough Formation with several regionally and nationally important biozones and marker horizons. Overlying are the glaciogenic and glaciofluvial Devensian and post Devensian tills\, sands\, and gravels. The interglacial Ipswichian Buried cliff cuts through the chalk sequence to form an internationally important feature. The Chalk is folded and faulted by the Flamborough Head Fault Zone with localised marbleisation and associated historical\, and vernacular associations. \nContact the LGA secretary on lga.sec@btinternet.com for more information if you wish to attend.

SUMMARY:Holme Park and Trowbarrow Quarries
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Carolina Goodship. Cumbria GeoConservation Group \nWe will be visiting two very different sites in and around the Arnside & Silverdale National Landscape to examine a variety of geological features in the Lower Carboniferous limestones\, including their lithology\, fossil record\, palaeokarst\, Quaternary karst features and structural geology. In the morning\, we will visit Holme Park Quarry. This is a working quarry operated by Holcim UK and our guide will be the quarry manager. The quarry extracts Lower Carboniferous Urswick Limestone which is crushed to produce a high-quality aggregate. The shallow dip of the limestone strata provides an  excellent opportunity to see the stratigraphic sequence of the Urswick limestone in its full unweathered technicolour glory. If have time\, we’ll include a short visit to see limestone pavement on an island in the middle of the quarry. The island is a nature reserve managed by the Cumbria Wildlife Trust. In the afternoon\, we will visit Trowbarrow\, near Silverdale. This disused quarry is a designated geological SSSI and \,local nature reserve\, managed by the Arnside & Silverdale National Landscape. In addition to its outstanding geology\, the quarry supports a rich and varied fauna and flora\, including several species of orchids. Trowbarrow is a key locality to study Urswick limestone geology and its ancient life. The site displays a wide variety of limestone types\, including evidence of emergence and outstanding examples of palaeokarst exposures. The limestone hosts a rich fossil community\, especially foraminifera (tiny single-celled organisms with shells). Macro fossils such as corals and brachiopods are also present\, along with excellent exposures of Thalassinoides trace fossils. Unlike the shallow dipping beds at Holme Park Quarry\, here the beds are oriented vertically – effects of the Variscan deformation known locally as the “Silverdale Disturbance.” \nContact the LGA secretary on lga.sec@btinternet.com for more information if you wish to attend.

SUMMARY:Space weather and geomagnetically induced currents
DESCRIPTION:Space Weather encompasses a wide variety of physical phenomena that are ultimately driven by solar activity. The charged particles of the solar wind can disrupt satellite communications in space\, create auroral displays\, and interfere with telecommunications. At ground level\, magnetic fluctuations induce electric currents that can impact power grids\, pipelines\, and railway operations. Understanding these physical processes and their impacts requires improving our knowledge of all aspects of these solar-terrestrial interactions\, including the role played by subsurface geology. This talk will cover some recent multi-institutional work to better understand space weather risk in the UK. \nLecture given by Prof. John Mound\, University of Leeds\, School of Earth and Environment.

SUMMARY:Water on Mars - including the longest river in the solar system
DESCRIPTION:Water on Mars – including the longest river in the solar system. Lecture given by Professor Jeff Peakall\, University of Leeds\, School of Earth and Environment. \nAbstract \nWe will look at the history of water on Mars which is strongly linked to the main geological periods\, covering periods when channel networks flourished and flowed into deltas and oceans\, and others when giant outflow channels bigger and deeper than the Grand Canyon formed. We will then look at what evidence there is for water on Mars today. Some of the Martian channels are exquisitely preserved and we shall focus on the poster children for rivers on Mars\, the channels in Aeolis Dorsa. Yet despite being sold as the archetypal examples of rivers these channels can lay claim to be the strangest rivers in the solar system. As part of our exploration\, we shall also take a look at potential Earth based analogues such as giant submarine channels on ocean floors\, and inverted channels. \nTea and Coffee will be provided after the talk. \nPlease note the new venue – details are provided below.

SUMMARY:Ecosystem recovery following the Permo-Triassic mass extinction
DESCRIPTION:Ecosystem recovery following the Permo-Triassic mass extinction. Lecture given by Annabel Nichols\, University of Leeds School of Earth and Environment. \nThe Permo-Triassic mass extinction (PTME ~252Ma) was the most catastrophic biotic event of the Phanerozoic and recovery was protracted due to environmental instability through the Early Triassic. Although the PTME itself is well studied\, there is debate surrounding the nature and timing of marine ecosystem recovery in the aftermath of the extinction. It is argued whether ecological recovery occurred in a step-wise bottom-up manner\, with full recovery occurring contemporaneously with recovery of taxonomic diversity by the Anisian stage of the Middle Triassic (some 5-8 million years after the PTME)\, or whether Early Triassic communities recovered rapidly albeit with markedly different structure to pre-extinction ecosystems. We used lagerstätten data to track ecological recovery via snapshots of marine communities through the Triassic by modelling community structure and function. We show that marine communities recovered quickly in the aftermath of the PTME\, but Middle Triassic communities show a significant increase in diversity and vertical structure compared to Early Triassic communities. This suggests that alpha diversity as well as marine community structure and function recovered fully by the Middle Triassic\, in line with global taxonomic diversity\, but this recovery did not occur via a step-by-step rebuilding of marine ecosystems through the Early Triassic.

SUMMARY:Monitoring community exposures to volcanic emissions on Montserrat\, Eastern Caribbean.
DESCRIPTION:Rosie Lewis\, SEE\, University of Leeds. \n \nThe Soufrière Hills volcano releases around 440 tonnes of sulphur dioxide (SO₂) gas every day\, while ash deposits from past eruptions (1999-2011) are regularly disturbed by ash mining activities. This talk will present the first high-resolution study of how volcanic SO₂ and fine particles (PM2.5) are dispersed across the island\, leading to different levels of exposure in local communities. This research aims to help local authorities better understand their air quality\, assess potential health risks\, and explore the need for long-term monitoring. Rosie will share insights and photographs from her field expeditions to Montserrat\, offering a glimpse into the unique challenges of working around this active volcano.

SUMMARY:Relict periglacial geohazards in the United Kingdom.
DESCRIPTION:Relict periglacial geohazards in the United Kingdom. Speaker: Tom Berry\, Tunnelling and Ground Engineering\, Jacobs Ltd. \nAlmost all areas of the UK have been affected by periglaciation during the Quaternary and\, as such\, relict periglacial geohazards can provide a signiﬁcant technical and commercial risk for many civil engineering projects. The processes and products associated with periglaciation in the relict periglacial landscape of the UK are described in terms of their nature and distribution\, the hazards they pose to engineering projects\, and how they might be monitored and mitigated. A periglacial land systems classiﬁcation is applied here to show its application to the assessment of ground engineering hazards within upland and lowland periglacial geomorphological terrains. Techniques for the early identiﬁcation of the susceptibility of a site to periglacial geohazards are discussed. These include the increased availability of high-resolution aerial imagery such as Google Earth\, which has proved to be a valuable tool in periglacial geohazard identiﬁcation when considered in conjunction with the more usual sources of desk study information such as geological\, geomorphological and topographical publications. Descriptions of periglacial geohazards and how they might impact engineering works are presented\, along with suggestions for possible monitoring and remediation strategies.

SUMMARY:Seawater chemistry and mass extinctions
DESCRIPTION:Seawater chemistry and mass extinctions \nSpeaker: Dr Rob Newton\, School of Earth and Environment\, University of Leeds. \nAn image of a Sabkha environment from the middle east where we have modern day deposition of gypsum: Changes in the deposition of gypsum from the ocean through time play an important role in the story. \nThere are various lines of evidence that show that seawater chemistry has changed markedly through time\, but these records have multiple limitations and are generally have very low time resolution\, often with gaps of many millions of years. More recent approaches for a specific component of seawater\, sulphate\, establish a link between low concentrations of this ion and mid-Phanerozoic extinctions such as the Permo-Triassic and end-Triassic. Rob will explain the possible mechanism that links these phenomena which fits with the established framework of other correlations between ocean anoxia\, large igneous province volcanism and marine extinction\, based on carbon cycling in the oceans and marine sediments\, and particularly the generation of methane.
