Estuaries are globally important zones for urban, recreational and commercial activities as well as supporting a range of habitats and species of significant ecological importance. The role of estuaries is recognised by the legislative framework that... Read More about Managing estuaries under a changing climate: A case study of the Humber Estuary, UK.

Here’s why UK tides are soon going to play a much bigger part in powering your home (2022)
Newspaper / Magazine
Waldman, S. (2022). Here’s why UK tides are soon going to play a much bigger part in powering your home

Tidal energy has long lurked at the back of the UK’s renewable energy arsenal, outshone by its wind and solar counterparts due in part to early issues with technology readiness and high costs.

Yet with recent research showing it could provide 11%... Read More about Here’s why UK tides are soon going to play a much bigger part in powering your home.

Understanding the bioeconomy: a new sustainability economy in British and European public discourse (2022)
Journal Article
Sotiropoulou, I., & Deutz, P. (2022). Understanding the bioeconomy: a new sustainability economy in British and European public discourse. Bio-based and Applied Economics, 10(4), 283-304. https://doi.org/10.36253/bae-9534

Over the past decade, the term bioeconomy has emerged in both policy and academic discourse. Implying a technology-driven approach to wealth generation from organic materials, the term has taken hold with so far limited critical engagement. It is a c...

Fill, flush or shuffle: How is sediment carried through submarine channels to build lobes? (2022)
Journal Article
Heijnen, M. S., Clare, M. A., Cartigny, M. J., Talling, P. J., Hage, S., Pope, E. L., Bailey, L., Sumner, E., Gwyn Lintern, D., Stacey, C., Parsons, D. R., Simmons, S. M., Chen, Y., Hubbard, S. M., Eggenhuisen, J. T., Kane, I., & Hughes Clarke, J. E. (2022). Fill, flush or shuffle: How is sediment carried through submarine channels to build lobes?. Earth and planetary science letters, 584, Article 117481. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2022.117481

Submarine channels are the primary conduits for land-derived material, including organic carbon, pollutants, and nutrients, into the deep-sea. The flows (turbidity currents) that traverse these systems can pose hazards to seafloor infrastructure such...

Hydrodynamic studies of floating structures: Comparison of wave-structure interaction modelling (2022)
Journal Article
Sheng, W., Tapoglou, E., Ma, X., Taylor, C. J., Dorrell, R. M., Parsons, D. R., & Aggidis, G. (2022). Hydrodynamic studies of floating structures: Comparison of wave-structure interaction modelling. Ocean engineering, 249, Article 110878. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2022.110878

Current panel methods for wave-structure interactions employ the potential flow theory, which provide fast, reliable and relatively accurate predictions for the marine structures, and now some open source packages, NEMOH and HAMS, are available. In t... Read More about Hydrodynamic studies of floating structures: Comparison of wave-structure interaction modelling.

A proof-of-concept study of a novel ventilation heat recovery vapour injection air source heat pump (2022)
Journal Article
Fan, Y., Li, J., Zhao, X., Myers, S., Cheng, Y., Yu, M., Golizadeh Akhlaghi, Y., Ma, X., & Yu, S. (2022). A proof-of-concept study of a novel ventilation heat recovery vapour injection air source heat pump. Energy Conversion and Management, 256, Article 115404. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enconman.2022.115404

Conventional air source heat pumps suffer from frosting in winter and consume a large amount of electricity for defrosting. Meanwhile, ventilation heat recovery is an important approach to energy saving in buildings. This paper conducts a proof-of-co...
