520    The Romney Marsh / Dungeness Foreland depositional complex
       comprises an extensive tract of marshland and associated 
       sand and gravel barrier deposits, located in the eastern 
       English Channel. This monograph presents the results of a 
       programme of palaeoenvironmental investigation aimed at 
       improving our understanding of this internationally-
       significant coastal landform. The focus is on the evidence
       for landscape change during the late Holocene, from c. 
       3000 BC onwards, and on identifying the local, regional 
       and global driving mechanisms responsible for the changes 
       observed. The research details the results from two 
       related projects, each funded as part of English 
       Heritage's Aggregate Levy Sustainability Fund scheme. The 
       first project concerns the late Holocene evolution of the 
       port of Rye, located in the southeast part of the complex,
       and the second the depositional history of the gravel 
       foreland. Topics explored include the vegetation and land-
       use history of the study area, methodological issues 
       relating to the collection and interpretation of 
       radiocarbon dates from coastal lowlands, the role of 
       compaction in influencing landscape and sea-level change, 
       and the effects of medieval storms on coastal flooding and
       landscape change. This monograph is intended for students 
       and researchers interested in Holocene coastal evolution 
       and sea-level change, coastal vegetation history and land-
       use history, and the development of new techniques for 
       reconstructing past environmental change in coastal 
       lowlands. [Elib]
