Sediment routing hypothesis for pool-riffle maintenance (2013)
Journal Article
Milan, D. J. (2013). Sediment routing hypothesis for pool-riffle maintenance. Earth surface processes and landforms : the journal of the British Geomorphological Research Group, 38(14), 1623-1641. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.3395

This paper provides comprehensive evidence that sediment routing around pools is a key mechanism for pool-riffle maintenance in sinuous upland gravel-bed streams. The findings suggest that pools do not require a reversal in energy for them to scour o... Read More about Sediment routing hypothesis for pool-riffle maintenance.

Municipal solid waste management and institutions in Tripoli, Libya : applying the environmentally sound technologies (ESTs) concept (2013)
Thesis
Etriki, J. I. Municipal solid waste management and institutions in Tripoli, Libya : applying the environmentally sound technologies (ESTs) concept. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215248

Solid waste management systems in developed countries are undergoing a transformation to a resource recovery-based model. Conversely, in many developing countries waste management is still inadequate in terms of environmental and public health. The e...

Stable isotope analysis of Neolithic and Chalcolithic populations from Aktopraklik, northern Anatolia (2013)
Journal Article
Budd, C., Lillie, M., Alpaslan-Roodenberg, S., Karul, N., & Pinhasi, R. (2013). Stable isotope analysis of Neolithic and Chalcolithic populations from Aktopraklik, northern Anatolia. Journal of archaeological science, 40(2), 860-867. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jas.2012.09.011

This paper presents the results of stable isotope (carbon and nitrogen) analysis of human and faunal remains from the site of Aktopraklık, one of the earliest farming sites in the Eastern Marmara region of Northwest Anatolia. Excavations at this site... Read More about Stable isotope analysis of Neolithic and Chalcolithic populations from Aktopraklik, northern Anatolia.

Re-capturing bovine life: Robot-cow relationships, freedom and control in dairy farming (2013)
Journal Article
Holloway, L., Bear, C., & Wilkinson, K. (2014). Re-capturing bovine life: Robot-cow relationships, freedom and control in dairy farming. Journal of rural studies, 33, 131-140. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jrurstud.2013.01.006

Robotic milking machines are novel technologies that take over the labour of dairy farming and reduce the need for human-animal interactions. Replacing ‘conventional' twice-a-day milking managed by people with a system that supposedly allows cows the...

Mine water geochemistry and metal flux in a major historic Pb-Zn-F orefield, the Yorkshire Pennines, UK (2013)
Journal Article
Jones, A., Rogerson, M., Greenway, G., Potter, H. A., & Mayes, W. M. (2013). Mine water geochemistry and metal flux in a major historic Pb-Zn-F orefield, the Yorkshire Pennines, UK. Environmental science and pollution research, 20(11), 7570-7581. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-013-1513-4

Recent studies have shown up to 6 % of rivers in England and Wales to be impacted by discharges from abandoned metal mines. Despite the large extent of impacts, there are still many areas where mine water impact assessments are limited by data availa...

The competition state, city-regions, and the territorial politics of growth facilitation (2013)
Journal Article
While, A., Gibbs, D., & Jonas, A. E. G. (2013). The competition state, city-regions, and the territorial politics of growth facilitation. Environment & planning. A, 45(10), 2379-2398. https://doi.org/10.1068/a45210

As urban centres of agglomeration expand and compete for investment, new demands may arise for additional housing, infrastructure, and services. Failure to meet these demands imposes costs on firms and workers, stifles expansion, and potentially comp...

Genetics and livestock breeding in the UK: Co-constructing technologies and heterogeneous biosocial collectivities (2013)
Journal Article
Holloway, L., & Morris, C. (2014). Genetics and livestock breeding in the UK: Co-constructing technologies and heterogeneous biosocial collectivities. Journal of rural studies, 33, 150-160. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jrurstud.2012.10.003

Cattle and sheep breeders in the UK and elsewhere are increasingly being encouraged to use a variety of genetic technologies to help them make breeding decisions. The technology of particular interest here is 'classical' statistical genetics, which u...
