A new modelling approach to sediment bypass prediction applied to the East Coast Basin, New Zealand (2020)
Journal Article
Crisóstomo-Figueroa, A., McArthur, A. D., Dorrell, R. M., Amy, L., & McCaffrey, W. D. (2021). A new modelling approach to sediment bypass prediction applied to the East Coast Basin, New Zealand. Geological Society of America Bulletin, 133(7-8), 1734-1748. https://doi.org/10.1130/B35687.1

Predicting when turbidity currents are erosional or depositional (i.e., leaving no depositional record versus leaving a deposit) remains challenging. Here we combine observations from submarine channel morphology with a new sediment transport model t...

© 2020 The Authors Recent surface observations have emphasised the importance of bedload transport by rivers and streams on Mars and Titan. Previous “hydraulic” analysis, however, has also shown that transport as suspended load should be possible, if...

Species-specific impact of microplastics on coral physiology (2020)
Journal Article
Mendrik, F., Henry, T., Burdett, H., Hackney, C., Waller, C., Parsons, D., & Hennige, S. (2021). Species-specific impact of microplastics on coral physiology. Environmental pollution, 269, Article 116238. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2020.116238

There is evidence that microplastic (MP) pollution can negatively influence coral health; however, mechanisms are unknown and most studies have used MP exposure concentrations that are considerably higher than current environmental conditions. Furthe... Read More about Species-specific impact of microplastics on coral physiology.

Design and analysis of a novel dual source vapor injection heat pump using exhaust and ambient air (2020)
Journal Article
