The role of sea ports in end-to-end maritime transport chain emissions (2013)
Journal Article
Gibbs, D., Rigot-Muller, P., Mangan, J., & Lalwani, C. (2014). The role of sea ports in end-to-end maritime transport chain emissions. Energy policy, 64, 337-348. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2013.09.024

This paper's purpose is to investigate the role of sea ports in helping to mitigate the GHG emissions associated with the end-to-end maritime transport chain. The analysis is primarily focused on the UK, but is international in application. The paper... Read More about The role of sea ports in end-to-end maritime transport chain emissions.

Late Mesolithic and early Neolithic forest disturbance: a high resolution palaeoecological test of human impact hypotheses (2013)
Journal Article
Innes, J. B., Blackford, J. J., & Rowley-Conwy, P. A. (2013). Late Mesolithic and early Neolithic forest disturbance: a high resolution palaeoecological test of human impact hypotheses. Quaternary science reviews, 77, 80-100. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2013.07.012

The transition in north-west Europe from the hunter-gatherer societies of the Late Mesolithic to the pioneer farming societies of the early Neolithic is not well understood, either culturally or palaeoecologically. In Britain the final transition was... Read More about Late Mesolithic and early Neolithic forest disturbance: a high resolution palaeoecological test of human impact hypotheses.

Polydisperse suspensions: Erosion, deposition, and flow capacity (2013)
Journal Article
Dorrell, R. M., Hogg, A. J., & Pritchard, D. (2013). Polydisperse suspensions: Erosion, deposition, and flow capacity. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 118(3), 1939-1955. https://doi.org/10.1002/jgrf.20129

Deposition from particle-laden flows is often described in terms of the capacity and competence of the flow, but robust definitions of these terms have proved elusive. In this paper we provide a mathematical modeling framework within which erosion an... Read More about Polydisperse suspensions: Erosion, deposition, and flow capacity.

Virtual velocity of tracers in a gravel-bed river using size-based competence duration (2013)
Journal Article
Milan, D. J. (2013). Virtual velocity of tracers in a gravel-bed river using size-based competence duration. Geomorphology, 198, 107-114. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2013.05.018

Virtual velocity (Vi) of river gravels is commonly used to determine sediment transport rates and gravel dispersion dynamics. Virtual velocity is calculated from tracer gravel step-length data as the distance travelled divided by the duration of comp...

A human geographical exploration of adventure motorcycling : freedom to move, freedom to feel, freedom to choose (2013)
Thesis
Wolferink, G. S. A human geographical exploration of adventure motorcycling : freedom to move, freedom to feel, freedom to choose. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215967

Freedom is a term that is used often when an adventure motorcyclist is asked what it is all about and when asked what it is what he or she experiences and why he or she engages in this activity. This thesis explores what adventure motorcycling is all... Read More about A human geographical exploration of adventure motorcycling : freedom to move, freedom to feel, freedom to choose.

Superelevation and overspill control secondary flow dynamics in submarine channels (2013)
Journal Article
Dorrell, R. M., Darby, S. E., Peakall, J., Sumner, E. J., Parsons, D. R., & Wynn, R. B. (2013). Superelevation and overspill control secondary flow dynamics in submarine channels. Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 118(8), 3895-3915. https://doi.org/10.1002/jgrc.20277

In subaerial and submarine meander bends, fluid flow travels downstream in a helical spiral, the structure of which is determined by centrifugal, hydrostatic, baroclinic, and Coriolis forces that together balance frictional stresses generated by the...

Towards a sustainable economy? Socio-technical transitions in the green building sector (2013)
Journal Article
O'Neill, K., & Gibbs, D. (2014). Towards a sustainable economy? Socio-technical transitions in the green building sector. Local environment, 19(6), 572-590. https://doi.org/10.1080/13549839.2013.818954

Making the transition to a green economy is a major policy driver in the UK and other countries. Entrepreneurs are suggested as being at the forefront of this transition and as a driving force for sustainability. These “green entrepreneurs” may repre...

City-regionalism as a politics of collective provision : regional transport infrastructure in Denver, USA (2013)
Journal Article
Jonas, A. E. G., Goetz, A. R., & Bhattacharjee, S. (2014). City-regionalism as a politics of collective provision : regional transport infrastructure in Denver, USA. Urban studies, 51(11), 2444-2465. https://doi.org/10.1177/0042098013493480

The rise of the city-region concept has focused attention on the nature of territorial politics underpinning city-regionalism. This paper investigates the relationship between territorial politics, city-regionalism and the collective provision of mas...

Gypsum addition to soils contaminated by red mud: implications for aluminium, arsenic, molybdenum and vanadium solubility (2013)
Journal Article
Lehoux, A. P., Lockwood, C. L., Mayes, W. M., Stewart, D. I., Mortimer, R. J. G., Gruiz, K., & Burke, I. T. (2013). Gypsum addition to soils contaminated by red mud: implications for aluminium, arsenic, molybdenum and vanadium solubility. Environmental Geochemistry and Health, 35(5), 643-656. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10653-013-9547-6

Red mud is highly alkaline (pH 13), saline and can contain elevated concentrations of several potentially toxic elements (e.g. Al, As, Mo and V). Release of up to 1 million m3 of bauxite residue (red mud) suspension from the Ajka repository, western...
