Journal Article
Large, A. R. G., Mayes, W. M., Newson, M. D., & Parkin, G. (2007). Using long-term monitoring of fen hydrology and vegetation to underpin wetland restoration strategies. Applied vegetation science : official organ of the International Association for Vegetation Science, 10(3), 417-428. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1654-109X.2007.tb00441.x

Question: How can long-term monitoring of hydrological and ecological parameters support management strategies aimed towards wetland restoration and re-creation in a complex hydrological system? Location: Newham Bog National Nature Reserve, Northumbe... Read More about Using long-term monitoring of fen hydrology and vegetation to underpin wetland restoration strategies.

Subjecting cows to robots: farming technologies and the making of animal subjects (2007)
Journal Article
Holloway, L. (2007). Subjecting cows to robots: farming technologies and the making of animal subjects. Environment and planning. D, Society & space, 25(6), 1041-1060. https://doi.org/10.1068/d77j

Recent representations of human-animal relationships in farming have tended to focus on human experience, and to essentialise animal subjectivity in granting them a centred subjectivity akin to that assumed to be possessed by humans. Instead, this pa... Read More about Subjecting cows to robots: farming technologies and the making of animal subjects.

Clarifying stages of alluvial fan evolution along the Sfakian piedmont, southern Crete: New evidence from analysis of post-incisive soils and OSL dating (2007)
Journal Article
Wilkinson, K., Ferrier, G., Pope, R., Skourtsos, E., & Triantaphyllou, M. (2008). Clarifying stages of alluvial fan evolution along the Sfakian piedmont, southern Crete: New evidence from analysis of post-incisive soils and OSL dating. Geomorphology, 94(1-2), 206-225. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2007.05.007

Analysis of fan sediments and post-incisive soils was combined with luminescence dating to re-assess Nemec and Postma's [Nemec, W., Postma, G., 1993. Quaternary alluvial fans in southwestern Crete: sedimentation processes and geomorphic evolution. In...

Reflections on implementing industrial ecology through eco-industrial park development (2007)
Journal Article
Gibbs, D., & Deutz, P. (2007). Reflections on implementing industrial ecology through eco-industrial park development. Journal of cleaner production, 15(17), 1683-1695. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclepro.2007.02.003

This paper investigates whether eco-industrial parks (EIPs) offer possibilities to implement sustainable development policies. EIPs are based upon industrial ecology principles that suggest industrial systems can operate in a similar fashion to natur...

Quantifying the importance of diffuse minewater pollution in a historically heavily coal mined catchment (2007)
Journal Article
Mayes, W. M., Gozzard, E., Potter, H. A. B., & Jarvis, A. P. (2008). Quantifying the importance of diffuse minewater pollution in a historically heavily coal mined catchment. Environmental pollution, 151(1), 165-175. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2007.02.008

There has been considerable progress in developing treatment systems for point sources of minewater pollution in recent years; however, there remains a knowledge gap in the characterisation and remediation of diffuse minewater sources. Data are prese... Read More about Quantifying the importance of diffuse minewater pollution in a historically heavily coal mined catchment.

Kitsch geographies and the everyday spaces of social memory (2007)
Journal Article
Atkinson, D. (2007). Kitsch geographies and the everyday spaces of social memory. Environment & planning. A, 39(3), 521-540. https://doi.org/10.1068/a3866

Given recent developments in retheorising the spatialities of memory, in this study I move beyond established foci upon monuments and fixed sites of memory to consider some of the more ordinary places where memory erupts. In contrast to the high-prof... Read More about Kitsch geographies and the everyday spaces of social memory.

Possible food economies: A methodological framework for exploring food production-consumption relationships (2007)
Journal Article
Holloway, L., Kneafsey, M., Venn, L., Cox, R., Dowler, E., & Tuomainen, H. (2007). Possible food economies: A methodological framework for exploring food production-consumption relationships. Sociologia ruralis, 47(1), 1-19. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-9523.2007.00427.x

Modes of food production-consumption defined as 'alternative' have received considerable academic attention, with studies exploring both their potential for contributing to rural development strategies and the opportunities they provide for counterin...

Exploring biopower in the regulation of farm animal bodies: genetic policy interventions in UK livestock (2007)
Journal Article
Holloway, L., & Morris, C. (2007). Exploring biopower in the regulation of farm animal bodies: genetic policy interventions in UK livestock. Life Sciences, society and policy, 3(2), 82 - 98. https://doi.org/10.1186/1746-5354-3-2-82

This paper explores the analytical relevance of Foucault’s notion of biopower in the context of regulating and managing non-human lives and populations, specifically those animals that are the focus of livestock breeding based on genetic techniques....
