Encyclopedia > River Ise

The River Ise is a river in Northamptonshire, England and a tributary of the River Nene.


The river rises in the very field that hosted the Battle of Naseby at the north-western tip of Northamptonshire. Flowing east past Desborough and the Eleanor cross at Geddington, it turns south and passes Kettering and Burton Latimer before joining the Nene just south of Wellingborough.

WDN Literature References: River Deltas and Sea Level Rise (16283 words)
The accelerated growth of the Changjiang River delta since 2,000 BP was formerly attributed to the intensified human activity in the drainage basin.
Meanwhile, most of the sediment from the river mouth was trapped by the relatively deep-water sedimentary basin to build the underwater delta and a new coast profile, which paved the way for the rapid seaward growth of deltaic land after 2,000 BP.
Rivers are the main source of terrigenous sediment delivered to continental margins and thus exert a major control on coastal evolution and sequence development.
