Autoren-Porträt
David J. Nash is Reader in Physical Geography at theUniversity of Brighton. He is widely known for his publications on
the links between silcretes, calcretes and landscape evolution in
southern Africa, southwest Europe and the UK, as well as his
broader research into the geomorphology of dryland regions and
Quaternary to recent environmental changes in deserts.
Sue J. McLaren is Senior Lecturer in Physical Geography
at the University of Leicester. Her research expertise is in
terrestrial geochemical sediments (particularly aeolianites and
calcretes), reconstructing palaeoenvironments in drylands, and
geoarchaeology. Sue has worked extensively in northern and southern
Africa, the Middle East, Mexico and the Caribbean, as well as in
the Mediterranean and Borneo.
