Geometrical and mechanical properties of four species of northern European brown macroalgae (2013)
Journal Article
Paul, M., Henry, P. Y. T., & Thomas, R. E. (2014). Geometrical and mechanical properties of four species of northern European brown macroalgae. Coastal Engineering, 84, 73-80. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coastaleng.2013.11.007

Aquatic vegetation interacts with the flow by posing an obstruction and in return experiences drag and is reconfigured by acting forces. It is suggested that plant buoyancy and stiffness affect these bio-physical interactions and hence should be cons...

A macroscopic forecasting framework for estimating socioeconomic and environmental performance of intelligent transport highways (2013)
Journal Article
Kolosz, B. W., Grant-Muller, S. M., & Djemame, K. (2014). A macroscopic forecasting framework for estimating socioeconomic and environmental performance of intelligent transport highways. IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 15(2), 723-736. https://doi.org/10.1109/TITS.2013.2284638

The anticipated introduction of new forms of intelligent transport systems (ITS) represents a significant opportunity for increased cooperative mobility and sociotechnical changes within the transport system. Although such technologies are currently... Read More about A macroscopic forecasting framework for estimating socioeconomic and environmental performance of intelligent transport highways.

First direct measurements of hydraulic jumps in an active submarine density current (2013)
Journal Article
Sumner, E. J., Peakall, J., Parsons, D. R., Wynn, R. B., Darby, S. E., Dorrell, R. M., McPhail, S. D., Perrett, J., Webb, A., & White, D. (2013). First direct measurements of hydraulic jumps in an active submarine density current. Geophysical research letters, 40(22), 5904-5908. https://doi.org/10.1002/2013gl057862

For almost half a century, it has been suspected that hydraulic jumps, which consist of a sudden decrease in downstream velocity and increase in flow thickness, are an important feature of submarine density currents such as turbidity currents and deb...

Rethinking the spaces and institutions of flood governance (2013)
Thesis
Rogers-Wright, A. Rethinking the spaces and institutions of flood governance. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215549

In 2007 the city of Hull in Yorkshire, England, experienced extremely high levels of rainfall. The city is very low lying, built predominantly on drained land which relies on a pumped drainage system; as a result, the city flooded. There were a numbe...

The influence of earth surface movements and human activities on the river Karun in lowland south-west Iran (2013)
Thesis
Woodbridge, K. P. The influence of earth surface movements and human activities on the river Karun in lowland south-west Iran. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215645

Earth surface movements are a primary external control on river system dynamics and evolution. It has often been observed that when responding to Earth surface motion driven by surface expression of folds, major rivers incise across young, active fol...

Outcomes of river rehabilitation on instream hydraulics and fish communities (2013)
Thesis
Smith, M. A. Outcomes of river rehabilitation on instream hydraulics and fish communities. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215204

All fish species have specific habitat requirements, which differ according to life history and life stage. Where requirements are not met, or are inadequate for a particular species, the species will be locally absent or the population in poor condi...

Were rivers flowing across the Sahara during the last interglacial? Implications for human migration through Africa. (2013)
Journal Article
Coulthard, T. J., Ramirez, J. A., Barton, N., Rogerson, M., & Brücher, T. (2013). Were rivers flowing across the Sahara during the last interglacial? Implications for human migration through Africa. PLoS ONE, 8(9), 0-0. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0074834

Human migration north through Africa is contentious. This paper uses a novel palaeohydrological and hydraulic modelling approach to test the hypothesis that under wetter climates c.100,000 years ago major river systems ran north across the Sahara to...

Integrating the LISFLOOD-FP 2D hydrodynamic model with the CAESAR model: implications for modelling landscape evolution (2013)
Journal Article
Coulthard, T. J., Neal, J. C., Bates, P. D., Ramirez, J., de Almeida, G. A., & Hancock, G. R. (2013). Integrating the LISFLOOD-FP 2D hydrodynamic model with the CAESAR model: implications for modelling landscape evolution. Earth surface processes and landforms : the journal of the British Geomorphological Research Group, 38(15), 1897-1906. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.3478

Landscape evolution models (LEMs) simulate the geomorphic development of river basins over long time periods and large space scales (100s-1000s of years, 100s of km2). Due to these scales they have been developed with simple steady flow models that e...

Modelling uncertainty in the sustainability of Intelligent Transport Systems for highways using probabilistic data fusion (2013)
Journal Article
Kolosz, B., Grant-Muller, S., & Djemame, K. (2013). Modelling uncertainty in the sustainability of Intelligent Transport Systems for highways using probabilistic data fusion. Environmental modelling & software : with environment data news, 49, 78-97. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envsoft.2013.07.011

The implementation of ITS to increase the efficiency of saturated highways has become increasingly prevalent. It is a high level objective for many international governments and operators that highways should be managed in a way that is both sustaina...
