Streamwise Turbulence Modulation in Non-Uniform Open-Channel Clay Suspension Flows (2023)
Journal Article
de Vet, M. G., Fernández, R., Baas, J. H., McCaffrey, W. D., & Dorrell, R. M. (2023). Streamwise Turbulence Modulation in Non-Uniform Open-Channel Clay Suspension Flows. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 128(8), Article e2022JF006781. https://doi.org/10.1029/2022JF006781

Cohesive sediment particles are ubiquitous in environmental flows. The cohesive properties of clay promote the formation of clay flocs and gels and relatively small suspended clay concentrations can enhance or suppress turbulence in a flow. Furthermo...

Eroding coastal landfill sites: the relative contribution of coastal and inland mining wastes to metal flux along a post-industrial coastline (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Riley, A., Onnis, P., Gandy, C., Kanu, C., Umeobika, C., Cameron, J., Burke, I., Hudson-Edwards, K., Jarvis, A., & Mayes, W. (2023, July). Eroding coastal landfill sites: the relative contribution of coastal and inland mining wastes to metal flux along a post-industrial coastline. Presented at Goldschmidt2023, Lyon, France

Historically, coastal areas of the United Kingdom were extensively used for the disposal of wastes from a range of municipal and industrial sources, including coal mining, metal mining, and mineral processing. Many of these deposits are releasing met...

Knitting Circular Ties: Empowering Networks for the Social Enterprise-led Local Development of an Integrative Circular Economy (2023)
Journal Article
Pusz, M., Jonas, A. E., & Deutz, P. (online). Knitting Circular Ties: Empowering Networks for the Social Enterprise-led Local Development of an Integrative Circular Economy. Circular Economy and Sustainability, https://doi.org/10.1007/s43615-023-00271-4

Circular economy (CE) discourse primarily focuses on business-as-usual and resource-related economic processes whilst overlooking relational-spatial aspects, especially networking for local development. There are, however, many mission-driven social... Read More about Knitting Circular Ties: Empowering Networks for the Social Enterprise-led Local Development of an Integrative Circular Economy.

Quantifying CO2 Removal at Enhanced Weathering Sites: a Multiproxy Approach (2023)
Journal Article
Knapp, W. J., Stevenson, E. I., Renforth, P., Ascough, P. L., Knight, A. C., Bridgestock, L., Bickle, M. J., Lin, Y., Riley, A. L., Mayes, W. M., & Tipper, E. T. (2023). Quantifying CO2 Removal at Enhanced Weathering Sites: a Multiproxy Approach. Environmental Science and Technology, 57(26), 9854-9864. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.3c03757

Enhanced weathering is a carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation strategy that promises large scale atmospheric CO2 removal. The main challenge associated with enhanced weathering is monitoring, reporting, and verifying (MRV) the amount of carbon removed as...

Millions of orphans, created by parental deaths due to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in sub-Saharan Africa, live with, and are cared for, by grandparents. Little research has considered how grandparents and, in particular, grandfathers, are caring for orphan... Read More about Invisible in Plain Sight?
