Quantification of turbid wakes in offshore wind farms using satellite remote sensing (2025)
Journal Article
Lecordier, E. M., Gernez, P., Mazik, K., York, K., & Forster, R. M. (2025). Quantification of turbid wakes in offshore wind farms using satellite remote sensing. Science of the Total Environment, 967, Article 178814. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178814

The offshore wind (OSW) industry is expanding globally, particularly in areas of shallow water such as the North Sea. The environmental impacts of large-scale offshore development are not yet well understood. Satellite remote sensing has shown an inc...

Investigating the Importance of UK Seagrass Habitats and Current Conservation Action (2024)
Thesis
Farthing, T. (2024). Investigating the Importance of UK Seagrass Habitats and Current Conservation Action. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5088292

Since 1936, at least 44% of UK seagrass has been lost and the deterioration of seagrass habitats is predicted to continue. Seagrass habitats are rich in species diversity and have the ability to sequester large quantities of carbon. Initially, a syst...

The biological and physical controls on phytoplankton blooms off the north-east coast of the UK (2024)
Thesis
Hill, D. The biological and physical controls on phytoplankton blooms off the north-east coast of the UK. (Thesis). The University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4866477

The North Sea is a highly productive temperate coastal shelf sea which contains important fisheries that provides protein to the global market. This study investigated the biological and physical controls on the different spring bloom events in North...

Effect of Operational Wind-Turbine Vibration on Surface-Dwelling Invertebrates (2023)
Book Chapter
Burgess, J., Thomas, S., Mazik, K., Al-Mudallal, S., Tang, S. K., & Breithaupt, T. (2023). Effect of Operational Wind-Turbine Vibration on Surface-Dwelling Invertebrates. In A. N. Popper, J. Sisneros, A. D. Hawkins, & F. Thomsen (Eds.), The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life : Principles and Practical Considerations (1-20). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-10417-6_21-1

With the UK aiming to achieve 50 GW of offshore renewable energy by 2030, offshore construction will increase in tandem. The construction noise associated with wind turbine installation has gained much attention over the years, with sound emissions t...

UK Parliament Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Select Committee Flooding Inquiry: Written Evidence from Dr Kate Smith et al. (FLO0043) (2021)
Report
Smith, K., Thomas, R. E., Skinner, C., Davidson, G., Parsons, D., McLelland, S., Coulthard, T., Malik, K., Harrison, L., Ramsden, S., Moloney, J., Ahmed, J., Carter, C., Wolstenholme, J., Halstead, F., & Betts, P. (2021). UK Parliament Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Select Committee Flooding Inquiry: Written Evidence from Dr Kate Smith et al. (FLO0043)

This submission presents the research conducted within the Energy and Environment Institute at the University of Hull. Our work demonstrates that hazards represented by flooding have multiple dimensions, and that solutions to them need to take these...

Dynamic competition and resource partitioning during the early life of two widespread, abundant and ecologically similar fishes (2020)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Vickers, L., Mazik, K., Bolland, J., Peirson, G., Axford, S., Henshaw, A., & Cowx, I. G. (2020). Dynamic competition and resource partitioning during the early life of two widespread, abundant and ecologically similar fishes. Hydrobiologia, 847, 2211-2224. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-020-04247-5

Competition and resource partitioning can have profound implications for individuals, populations and communities, and thus food webs, ecosystems and the management of biota and environments. In many species, the impacts of competition and resource p...
