Governing flood risk in mid seventeenth-century England (2025)
Journal Article
McDonagh, B., Worthen, H., & Mottram, S. (2025). Governing flood risk in mid seventeenth-century England. Journal of Historical Geography, 89, 13-26. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhg.2024.12.001

The paper explores how early modern people lived with and responded to extraordinary flood events at a time of environmental, social and political crisis. By focusing on a period when flood risk management ‘failed’ and houses, land and businesses sat... Read More about Governing flood risk in mid seventeenth-century England.

Behaviours of pyroclastic and analogue materials, in dry and wet environments, for use in experimental modelling of pyroclastic density currents (2025)
Journal Article
Walding, N., Williams, R., Rowley, P., Dowey, N., Parsons, D., & Bird, A. (2025). Behaviours of pyroclastic and analogue materials, in dry and wet environments, for use in experimental modelling of pyroclastic density currents. Volcanica, 8(1), 261–285. https://doi.org/10.30909/vol/oxkm9163

Modelling pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) is a challenging yet essential element of hazard assessment. PDCs are unpredictable and internal processes are often difficult to measure directly. Analogue experiments have been an important tool for inv...

The impacts of human-made structures on larval connectivity in the northern North Sea (2025)
Journal Article
Barton, B. I., De Dominicis, M., Woolf, D. K., Want, A., & Bell, M. C. (in press). The impacts of human-made structures on larval connectivity in the northern North Sea. Communications Earth & Environment, 6, Article 377. https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-025-02346-6

North Sea human-made, offshore structures (e.g. oil/gas platforms, offshore wind farms) provide a hard substrate habitat for benthic marine species which can spread between sites during their larval stage. Here, we aim to address how the installation... Read More about The impacts of human-made structures on larval connectivity in the northern North Sea.

The influence of moisture on ash strength: implications for understanding volcanic stratigraphy (2025)
Journal Article
Walding, N., Williams, R., Dowey, N., Rowley, P., Thomas, M., Osman, S., Johnson, M., & Parsons, D. R. (2025). The influence of moisture on ash strength: implications for understanding volcanic stratigraphy. Bulletin of volcanology, 87(6), Article 39. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00445-025-01821-4

Ash layers within extensive pyroclastic density current (PDC) deposits can be important in understanding the evolution of explosive eruptions. If interpreted as ashfall deposits, they may be used to identify hiatus episodes and determine how many pyr...

Multi Point Sensing and Defect Detection of Wind Turbine Blades: An Approach Using Fibre Bragg Gratings (2025)
Thesis
Sihivahana Sarma, A. (2025). Multi Point Sensing and Defect Detection of Wind Turbine Blades: An Approach Using Fibre Bragg Gratings. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5126324

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of Wind Turbine Blades (WTBs) plays a critical role in ensuring safe and cost-effective operations of these complex structures. However, detecting manufacturing-induced defects and operation-induced damages poses si...

The role of virtual field trips in Geography higher education: A perspective paper (2025)
Journal Article
Hurrell, E. R., Hutchinson, S. M., Yorke, L., Batty, L. C., Bunting, M. J., Swanton, D., McDougall, D. A., & Parsons, D. R. (in press). The role of virtual field trips in Geography higher education: A perspective paper. Area, Article e70011. https://doi.org/10.1111/area.70011

In this perspective paper, we explore the role virtual field trips (VFTs) may play in creating a more resilient, sustainable and equitable field education for Geography students in higher education as we move away from the pandemic but into a financi...

Tsunami Risk to UK Offshore Wind: Paleo-evidence and numerical model simulation (2025)
Thesis
Pickett, B. (2025). Tsunami Risk to UK Offshore Wind: Paleo-evidence and numerical model simulation. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5126372

The UK produces over 45% of its energy through renewable means, the majority of this through wind power. The mainstay of this capacity is located offshore in the North Sea, a region and capacity which is set to significantly expand in the coming year...
