Journal Article
Atkinson, L. J., Sherlock, D. J., & Atkin, O. K. (2015). Source of nitrogen associated with recovery of relative growth rate in Arabidopsis thaliana acclimated to sustained cold treatment. Plant, Cell and Environment, 38(6), 1023-1034. https://doi.org/10.1111/pce.12460

To determine (1) whether acclimation of carbon metabolism to low temperatures results in recovery of the relative growth rate (RGR) of plants in the cold and (2) the source of N underpinning cold-acclimation in Arabidopsis thaliana, we supplied plant...

Palaeo-hydrological interpretations of lake sediment proxies can benefit from a robust understanding of the modern lake environment. In this study, we use Nar Gölü, a non-outlet, monomictic maar lake in central Turkey, as a field site for a natural e...

The tailings dam breach at the Ajka alumina plant, western Hungary in 2010 introduced ∼1 million m³ of red mud suspension into the surrounding area. Red mud (fine fraction bauxite residue) has a characteristically alkaline pH and contains several pot...

© 2014, Springer-Verlag Wien. Numerical weather modelling has gained considerable attention in the field of hydrology especially in un-gauged catchments and in conjunction with distributed models. As a consequence, the accuracy with which these model... Read More about WRF model sensitivity to choice of parameterization: a study of the 'York Flood 1999'.

Geochemical recovery of the Torna-Marcal river system after the Ajka red mud spill, Hungary (2014)
Journal Article
Anton, Á. D., Klebercz, O., Magyar, Á., Burke, I. T., Jarvis, A. P., Gruiz, K., & Mayes, W. M. (2014). Geochemical recovery of the Torna-Marcal river system after the Ajka red mud spill, Hungary. Environmental science--processes & impacts, 16(12), 2677-2685. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4em00452c

The failure of the Ajka red mud depository in October 2010 led to the largest single release of red mud into the surface water environment. This study provides a comparative assessment of stream sediment quality in the Torna–Marcal–Rába catchment bet...

This paper is focused upon exploring the development of the green economy in particular locations, with the aim of identifying why some cities and regions have been successful in engendering green growth. To date we have little idea where the green e... Read More about The green economy, sustainability transitions and transition regions : a case study of Boston.

The potential use of exhausted open pit mine voids as sinks for atmospheric CO2: Insights from natural reedbeds and mine water treatment wetlands (2014)
Journal Article

Abandoned surface mine voids are often left to flood, forming pit lakes. Drawing simple but important lessons from experiences with compost-based passive remediation systems for acidic mine waters, an alternative end-use for open pit mine voids is pr...
