Thesis
James, J. Ecological Responses to Climate Change: Using the Common Ragworm (Hediste diversicolor) as an Indicator for Benthic Ecosystems. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4192688

Climate change is projected to have a negative impact on biodiversity over the next century. Similar drivers of change have been observed in the geological past and were also associated with loss of species, particularly in the marine environment. Th...

Agricultural Pea Waste as a Low-Cost Pollutant Biosorbent for Methylene Blue Removal: Adsorption Kinetics, Isotherm And Thermodynamic Studies (2022)
Journal Article
Holliday, M. C., Parsons, D. R., & Zein, S. H. (2022). Agricultural Pea Waste as a Low-Cost Pollutant Biosorbent for Methylene Blue Removal: Adsorption Kinetics, Isotherm And Thermodynamic Studies. Biomass Conversion and Biorefinery, https://doi.org/10.1007/s13399-022-02865-8

Biosorbents are an alternative pollutant adsorbent, usually sourced from waste biomass and requiring little to no treatment. This makes them cheaper than conventional adsorbents. In this paper, green pea (Pisum sativum) haulm was used as a biosorbent...

Immersive storytelling and the power of using 360 to amplify the experiences, agency and action of children and young people facing flood risk (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Parsons, K. J., Lloyd Williams, A., Skinner, C., & Parsons, D. R. (2022, May). Immersive storytelling and the power of using 360 to amplify the experiences, agency and action of children and young people facing flood risk. Paper presented at European Geosciences Union, Vienna, Austria

Flood hazard is projected to at least double by 2050 as a consequence of the impacts of climate change, meaning many more societies and communities will need to be able to mitigate and adapt to the resultant increase in flood risk.

One often overl... Read More about Immersive storytelling and the power of using 360 to amplify the experiences, agency and action of children and young people facing flood risk.

J., Heijnen, M., Hubbard, S. M., Hunt, J. E., McGhee, C., Parsons, D. R., Simmons, S. M., …Vendettuoli, D. (2022). First source-to-sink monitoring shows dense head controls sediment flux and runout in turbidity currents. Science Advances, 8(20), eabj3220. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.abj3220

Until recently, despite being one of the most important sediment transport phenomena on Earth, few direct measurements of turbidity currents existed. Consequently, their structure and evolution were poorly understood, particularly whether they are de...

Becoming nose-blind—Climate change impacts on chemical communication (2022)
Journal Article
Roggatz, C. C., Saha, M., Blanchard, S., Schirrmacher, P., Fink, P., Verheggen, F., & Hardege, J. D. (2022). Becoming nose-blind—Climate change impacts on chemical communication. Global change biology, https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.16209

Chemical communication via infochemicals plays a pivotal role in ecological interactions, allowing organisms to sense their environment, locate predators, food, habitats, or mates. A growing number of studies suggest that climate change-associated st... Read More about Becoming nose-blind—Climate change impacts on chemical communication.

Time‐Domain Implementation and Analyses of Multi‐Motion Modes of Floating Structures (2022)
Journal Article
Sheng, W., Tapoglou, E., Ma, X., Taylor, C. J., Dorrell, R., Parsons, D. R., & Aggidis, G. (2022). Time‐Domain Implementation and Analyses of Multi‐Motion Modes of Floating Structures. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 10(5), Article 662. https://doi.org/10.3390/jmse10050662

The study of wave‐structure interactions involving nonlinear forces would often make use of the popular hybrid frequency–time domain method. In the hybrid method, the frequency‐domain analysis could firstly provide the reliable and accurate dynamic p...

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.
