Comparison of nonlinear wave-loading models on rigid cylinders in regular waves (2019)
Journal Article
Mockute, A., Marino, E., Lugni, C., & Borri, C. (2019). Comparison of nonlinear wave-loading models on rigid cylinders in regular waves. Energies, 12(21), 1-22. https://doi.org/10.3390/en12214022

© 2019 by the authors. Monopiles able to support very large offshore wind turbines are slender structures susceptible to nonlinear resonant phenomena. With the aim to better understand and model the wave-loading on these structures in very steep wave...

The influence of fieldwork design on student perceptions of skills development during field courses (2019)
Journal Article
Peasland, E. L., Henri, D. C., Morrell, L. J., & Scott, G. W. (2019). The influence of fieldwork design on student perceptions of skills development during field courses. International journal of science education, 41(17), 2369-2388. https://doi.org/10.1080/09500693.2019.1679906

Employability is a key issue for students and Higher Education Institutions and a key component of employability is possessing the skills a role requires. In the environmental sciences, fieldwork provides an opportunity for students to develop employ...

Knickpoints in Martian channels indicate past ocean levels (2019)
Journal Article
Duran, S., Coulthard, T. J., & Baynes, E. R. (2019). Knickpoints in Martian channels indicate past ocean levels. Scientific reports, 9(1), Article 15153. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-51574-2

On Mars, the presence of extensive networks of sinuous valleys and large channels provides evidence for a wetter and warmer environment where liquid water was more abundant than it is at present. We undertook an analysis of all major channel systems... Read More about Knickpoints in Martian channels indicate past ocean levels.

Experiments on patterns of alluvial cover and bedrock erosion in a meandering channel (2019)
Journal Article
Fernández, R., Parker, G., & Stark, C. P. (in press). Experiments on patterns of alluvial cover and bedrock erosion in a meandering channel. Earth surface dynamics ESURF ; an interactive open access journal of the European Geosciences Union, 7(4), 949-968. https://doi.org/10.5194/esurf-7-949-2019

In bedrock rivers, erosion by abrasion is driven by sediment particles that strike bare bedrock while traveling downstream with the flow. If the sediment particles settle and form an alluvial cover, this mode of erosion is impeded by the protection o...

© 2019, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited. Increasing atmospheric CO2 levels are largely absorbed by the ocean, decreasing surface water pH1. In combination with increasing ocean temperatures, these changes have been i... Read More about Saxitoxin and tetrodotoxin bioavailability increases in future oceans.

The molecular basis of circadian and seasonal rhythms in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis (2019)
Thesis
Chapman, E. C. The molecular basis of circadian and seasonal rhythms in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222565

Exposure to regular environmental oscillations such as day/night have allowed organisms to evolve biological mechanisms to adaptively anticipate and prepare for rhythmic environmental change. A network of gene-protein interactions between clock genes... Read More about The molecular basis of circadian and seasonal rhythms in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis.
