Pollutant accumulation in road mitigation tunnels for amphibians: A multisite comparison on an ignored but important issue (2023)
Journal Article
White, K. J., Mayes, W., & Petrovan, S. O. (2023). Pollutant accumulation in road mitigation tunnels for amphibians: A multisite comparison on an ignored but important issue. Frontiers in ecology and evolution, 11, Article 1133253. https://doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2023.1133253

Underpasses or road tunnels are increasingly installed to reconnect habitats and ensure safe wildlife passage, thus preventing habitat fragmentation caused by roads and mortality from collisions with vehicles. In the UK, such underpasses are regularl... Read More about Pollutant accumulation in road mitigation tunnels for amphibians: A multisite comparison on an ignored but important issue.

Understanding the temporal dynamics of a lowland river fish community at a hazardous intake and floodgate to inform safe operation (2023)
Journal Article
Norman, J., Wright, R. M., Don, A., & Bolland, J. D. (2023). Understanding the temporal dynamics of a lowland river fish community at a hazardous intake and floodgate to inform safe operation. Journal of environmental management, 336, Article 117716. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.117716

Entrainment and mortality of freshwater fish at hazardous pumping station intakes used for Flood Risk Management (FRM) are of global concern. Although upstream and downstream passage of diadromous fish has received considerable attention, the ecologi...

Integrating environmental DNA monitoring to inform eel (Anguilla anguilla) status in freshwaters at their easternmost range—A case study in Cyprus (2023)
Journal Article
Griffiths, N. P., Wright, R. M., Hänfling, B., Bolland, J. D., Drakou, K., Sellers, G. S., Zogaris, S., Tziortzis, I., Dörflinger, G., & Vasquez, M. I. (2023). Integrating environmental DNA monitoring to inform eel (Anguilla anguilla) status in freshwaters at their easternmost range—A case study in Cyprus. Ecology and Evolution, 13(2), Article e9800. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.9800

Despite significant population declines and targeted European Union regulations aimed at Anguilla anguilla conservation, little attention has been given to their status at their easternmost range. This study applies wide-scale integrated monitoring t...

Understanding the impact of barriers to onward migration; a novel approach using translocated fish (2023)
Journal Article
Jubb, W. M., Noble, R. A., Dodd, J. R., Nunn, A. D., Lothian, A. J., Albright, A. J., Bubb, D. H., Lucas, M. C., & Bolland, J. D. (2023). Understanding the impact of barriers to onward migration; a novel approach using translocated fish. Journal of environmental management, 335, Article 117488. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.117488

River catchments worldwide are heavily fragmented by anthropogenic barriers, reducing their longitudinal connectivity and contributing to the decline of migratory fish populations. Direct impacts of individual barriers on migratory fish are well-esta... Read More about Understanding the impact of barriers to onward migration; a novel approach using translocated fish.

Detection of microplastics in human saphenous vein tissue using μFTIR: a pilot study (2023)
Journal Article
Rotchell, J. M., Jenner, L. C., Chapman, E., Bennett, R., Bolanle, I. O., Loubani, M., Sadofsky, L., & Palmer, T. (2023). Detection of microplastics in human saphenous vein tissue using μFTIR: a pilot study. PLoS ONE, 18(2), Article e0280594. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0280594

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the environment, in the human food chain, and have been recently detected in blood and lung tissues. To undertake a pilot analysis of MP contamination in human vein tissue samples with respect to their presence (...

Putting the fish into inland fisheries – A global allocation of historic inland fish catch (2023)
Journal Article
Ainsworth, R. F., Cowx, I. G., & Funge-Smith, S. J. (2023). Putting the fish into inland fisheries – A global allocation of historic inland fish catch. Fish and Fisheries, https://doi.org/10.1111/faf.12725

Inland waters support the livelihoods of up to 820 million people and provide fisheries that make an essential contribution towards food security, particularly in the developing world where 90% of inland fisheries catch is consumed. Despite their imp... Read More about Putting the fish into inland fisheries – A global allocation of historic inland fish catch.

Pharmacogenomics of GLP-1 receptor agonists: a genome-wide analysis of observational data and large randomised controlled trials (2022)
Journal Article

Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology, 11(1), 33-41. https://doi.org/10.1016/S2213-8587%2822%2900340-0

Background: In the treatment of type 2 diabetes, GLP-1 receptor agonists lower blood glucose concentrations, body weight, and have cardiovascular benefits. The efficacy and side effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists vary between people. Human pharmacoge...

The language of abiotic stress in aquatic animals : molecular characterisation of stress metabolite-mediated stress communication (2022)
Thesis
Feugère, L. The language of abiotic stress in aquatic animals : molecular characterisation of stress metabolite-mediated stress communication. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4311814

It is well established that aquatic animals inform their neighbours of predation risk through chemical cues. In this thesis, I tested the hypothesis that stress propagation is a widespread mechanism also activated by abiotic stressors – such as those...
