Cohesional behaviours in pyroclastic material and the implications for deposit architecture (2023)
Journal Article
Walding, N., Williams, R., Rowley, P., & Dowey, N. (2023). Cohesional behaviours in pyroclastic material and the implications for deposit architecture. Bulletin of volcanology, 85(11), Article 67. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00445-023-01682-9

Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are hazardous, multiphase currents of heterogeneous volcanic material and gas. Moisture (as liquid or gas) can enter a PDC through external (e.g., interaction with bodies of water) or internal (e.g., initial erupti...

Representing vegetation in experimental models of river systems. (2023)
Thesis
Bodewes, B. Representing vegetation in experimental models of river systems. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4443326

The physical behaviour of fluvial systems have been studied in detail and as have their representations of the impact and interaction between hydraulic and sedimentological features within these river systems. However, there is limited understanding... Read More about Representing vegetation in experimental models of river systems..

Student employability enhancement through fieldwork: purposefully integrated or a beneficial side effect? (2023)
Journal Article
Peasland, E. L., Scott, G. W., Morrell, L. J., & Henri, D. C. (in press). Student employability enhancement through fieldwork: purposefully integrated or a beneficial side effect?. Journal of geography in higher education, https://doi.org/10.1080/03098265.2023.2267459

Fieldwork provides opportunities for students to develop employability-enhancing transferable skills as well as technical, discipline-specific skills and disciplinary knowledge. However, the extent to which staff purposely plan transferable skills ou... Read More about Student employability enhancement through fieldwork: purposefully integrated or a beneficial side effect?.

Investigation of a Novel Hybrid Photovoltaic/thermal Power System Integrated with Thermally Regenerative Electrochemical Cycle (2023)
Thesis
Tang, X. Investigation of a Novel Hybrid Photovoltaic/thermal Power System Integrated with Thermally Regenerative Electrochemical Cycle. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4448471

The effective utilization of solar energy always attracts global attention. Photovoltaic/photothermal collector, a technology for generating electrical and thermal energy simultaneously, presents a high overall energy conversion efficiency due to abs...

Surfactant-Nanoparticle Formulations at Calcite-Water and Oil-Water Interfaces for Enhanced Oil Recovery (2023)
Thesis
Rezvani, H. Surfactant-Nanoparticle Formulations at Calcite-Water and Oil-Water Interfaces for Enhanced Oil Recovery. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4564632

There is a growing interest in the development of new and innovative enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies to reduce the environmental impact of oil production. Surfactant flooding is a well-established EOR method but mainly suffers from high adso...

Photocatalytic Hydrolysis─A Sustainable Option for the Chemical Upcycling of Polylactic Acid (2023)
Journal Article
Garratt, A., Nguyen, K., Brooke, A., Taylor, M. J., & Francesconi, M. G. (2023). Photocatalytic Hydrolysis─A Sustainable Option for the Chemical Upcycling of Polylactic Acid. ACS Environmental Au, 3(6), 342–347. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsenvironau.3c00040

Plastic waste is a critical global issue, yet current strategies to avoid committing plastic waste to landfills include incineration, gasification, or pyrolysis high carbon emitting and energy consuming approaches. However, plastic waste can become a... Read More about Photocatalytic Hydrolysis─A Sustainable Option for the Chemical Upcycling of Polylactic Acid.

Learning histories, participatory methods and creative engagement for climate resilience (2023)
Journal Article
McDonagh, B., Brookes, E., Smith, K., Worthen, H., Coulthard, T., Hughes, G., Mottram, S., Skinner, A., & Chamberlain, J. (2023). Learning histories, participatory methods and creative engagement for climate resilience. Journal of Historical Geography, 82, 91-97. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhg.2023.09.002

The potential of place-based, historically-informed approaches to drive climate action has not yet been adequately interrogated. Recent scholarly work has focussed on climate communication and the role of arts and humanities-led storytelling in engag...

Monitoring & modelling fluvial hydrogeomorphic response to leaky wooden dams (2023)
Thesis
Wolstenholme, J. M. Monitoring & modelling fluvial hydrogeomorphic response to leaky wooden dams. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4436310

The introduction of large wood to fluvial systems is an increasingly popular method of natural flood management (NFM). Leaky dams (LDs) are designed to attenuate the hydrograph and ‘slow-the-flow’, intercepting high flows, and providing temporary sto...
