Using cryptotephras to extend regional tephrochronologies: an example from southeast Alaska and implications for hazard assessment (2008)
Journal Article
Payne, R., Blackford, J., & van der Plicht, J. (2008). Using cryptotephras to extend regional tephrochronologies: an example from southeast Alaska and implications for hazard assessment. Quaternary Research, 69(1), 42-55. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yqres.2007.10.007

Cryptotephrochronology, the use of hidden, diminutive volcanic ash layers to date sediments, has rarely been applied outside western Europe but has the potential to improve the tephrochronology of other regions of the world. Here we present the first... Read More about Using cryptotephras to extend regional tephrochronologies: an example from southeast Alaska and implications for hazard assessment.

Southwest Scottish Crannogs: using in situ studies to assess preservation in wetland archaeological contexts (2008)
Journal Article

This paper presents the results of in situ monitoring of waterlogged burial contexts in southwest Scotland. The sites investigated are Iron Age crannogs (lake dwellings) which have a proven waterlogged archaeological component, and which are being as...

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.

Characterisation of Schiff base and chromophore in green proteorhodopsin by solid-state NMR (2007)
Journal Article
Pfleger, N., Lorch, M., Woerner, A. C., Shastri, S., & Glaubitz, C. (2008). Characterisation of Schiff base and chromophore in green proteorhodopsin by solid-state NMR. Journal of Biomolecular NMR, 40(1), 15-21. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10858-007-9203-5

The proteorhodopsin family consists of hundreds of homologous retinal containing membrane proteins found in bacteria in the photic zone of the oceans. They are colour tuned to their environment and act as light-driven proton pumps with a potential en...

Douterelo Soler, I. A multi-disciplinary approach to the characterization of waterlogged burial environments : assessing the potential for the in situ preservation of organic archaeological remains. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215172

The aim of this study was to characterise waterlogged burial environments and to assess their potential for the in situ preservation of organic archaeological remains. To characterise these environments, environmental parameters were monitored throug...

Reflections on implementing industrial ecology through eco-industrial park development (2007)
Journal Article

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.
