The specific aim of the study was to investigate how four adjacent geomorphological systems – a lake, a dune field, a small alluvial fan and a slope system – responded to the same impacts. Lake Tresssee is a shallow lake in the North of Germany (Schleswig-Holstein). During the Holocene, the lake’s water surface declined drastically, predominately as a consequence of human impact. The adjacent inland dune field shows several traces of former sand drift events. Using 30 new radiocarbon ages and the results of 16 OSL samples, this study aims to create a new timeline tracing the interaction between lake and dunes, as well, as how both the lake and the dunes reacted to environmental changes. The water level of the lake is presumed to have peaked during the period before the Younger Dryas (YD; start at 10.73 ka BC). After the Boreal period (OSL age 8050 ± 690 BC) the level must have undergone fluctuations triggered by climatic events and the first human influences. The last demonstrable high water level was during the Late Bronze Age (1003–844 cal. BC). The first to the 9th century AD saw slightly shrinking water levels, and more significant ones thereafter. In the 19th century, the lake area was artificially reduced to a minimum by the human population. In the dunes, a total of seven different phases of sand drift were demonstrated for the last 13,000 years. It is one of the most precisely dated inland-dune chronologies of Central Europe. The small alluvial fan took shape mainly between the 13th and 17th centuries AD. After 1700 cal. BC (Middle Bronze Age), and again during the sixth and seventh centuries AD, we find enhanced slope activity with the formation of Holocene colluvia.

In earlier studies we have analyzed the phenomena which can generate loss of ship controllability in astern seas. In this paper we examine how the yaw instability associated with broaching can lead to roll instability and ship capsize. The dynamic effects responsible for capsize during the forced turn of broaching do not have their origin in the customary roll equation but are the result of interactions with other motions of the ship. Stability studies based solely on the roll equation are thus clearly inappropriate for this case where a multidimensional approach is deemed necessary. After presenting the theoretical background we set out a multi-degree method of global analysis which is based on transient maps. We apply this method to clarify how capsize occurs during the escape from surf-riding and also during transients from arbitrary initial condition of the ship. Our study establishes the connection between speed, heading, automatic control parameters and capsize. The proposed method can be useful in the context of a design methodology for minimizing the risk of ship capsize in astern seas.
