Journal Article
Lacey, J. H., Leng, M. J., Höbig, N., Reed, J. M., Valero-Garcés, B., & Reicherter, K. (2016). Western Mediterranean climate and environment since Marine Isotope Stage 3: a 50,000-year record from Lake Banyoles, Spain. Journal of paleolimnology, 55(2), 113-128. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10933-015-9868-9

We present new stable isotope (δ¹⁸Ocalcite and δ¹³ Ccalcite) and diatom data from a 67-m sediment core (BAN II) from Lake Banyoles, northeastern Spain. We reassessed the chronology of the sequence by correlating stable isotope data with a shorter U-s...

Recent years have continued to see a concern for the detrimental environmental impacts of human economic activities particularly in the form of enhanced global warming, sea level rise, land degradation and deforestation. Although it can be argued tha... Read More about Editorial : environmental governance of urban and regional development – scales and sectors, conflict and cooperation.

Modulation of outer bank erosion by slump blocks: disentangling the protective and destructive role of failed material on the three-dimensional flow structure (2015)
Journal Article
Hackney, C., Best, J., Leyland, J., Darby, S. E., Parsons, D., Aalto, R., & Nicholas, A. (2015). Modulation of outer bank erosion by slump blocks: disentangling the protective and destructive role of failed material on the three-dimensional flow structure. Geophysical research letters, 42(24), 10663-10670. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015GL066481

The three-dimensional flow field near the banks of alluvial channels is the primary factor controlling rates of bank erosion. Although submerged slump blocks and associated large-scale bank roughness elements have both previously been proposed to div...

© 2015 Elsevier B.V. Despite the prevalence of vibration produced by anthropogenic activities impacting the seabed there are few data and little information as to whether these are detected by crustaceans and whether they interfere with their behavio...

It is known that the rain rate exceeded 0.01% of the time in the UK has experienced an increasing trend over the last 20 years. It is very likely that rain fade and outage experience a similar trend. This paper presents a globally applicable method t... Read More about A method to estimate trends in distributions of 1 min rain rates from numerical weather prediction data.

Electrokinetic delivery of persulfate to remediate PCBs polluted soils: Effect of different activation methods (2015)
Journal Article
