Extending the flood record - assessing the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood data (2019)
Thesis
Moloney, J. L. Extending the flood record - assessing the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood data. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222112

This study assesses the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood records in relation to the British database, which is a collection of radiocarbon dated geomorphological fluvial deposits used to infer the flood-frequency record during the Holocene. T... Read More about Extending the flood record - assessing the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood data.

Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentology, palaeoceanography and micropalaeontology of the Uruguayan continental slope (2019)
Thesis
McGuire, C. J. Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentology, palaeoceanography and micropalaeontology of the Uruguayan continental slope. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223202

This study utilises an extensive set of sediment cores collected from a largely unstudied contourite and turbidite depositional system located on the Uruguay continental margin to identify a method of distinguishing deposits in the deep sea that are...

Spinsters with land in early modern England: inheritance, possession and use (2019)
Book Chapter
Spicksley, J. (2019). Spinsters with land in early modern England: inheritance, possession and use. In A. L. Capern, B. McDonagh, & J. Aston (Eds.), Women and the Land 1500-1900 (51-76). Boydell & Brewer. https://doi.org/10.1017/9781787445208.003

This chapter offers an analysis of the land that was held by spinsters in England from the mid-sixteenth to the end of the seventeenth century. Although our knowledge of landholding by women is increasing, there is little published work on the amount...

The nature and age of basement host rocks and fissure fills in the Lancaster field fractured reservoir, West of Shetland (2019)
Journal Article
Holdsworth, R. E., Trice, R., Hardman, K., McCaffrey, K. J., Morton, A., Frei, D., Dempsey, E., Bird, A., & Rogers, S. (2020). The nature and age of basement host rocks and fissure fills in the Lancaster field fractured reservoir, West of Shetland. Journal of the Geological Society, 177(5), 1057-1073. https://doi.org/10.1144/jgs2019-142

Hosting up to 3.3 billion barrels of oil in place, the upfaulted Precambrian crystalline rocks of the Lancaster field, offshore west of Shetland, give key insights into how fractured hydrocarbon reservoirs can form in such old rocks. The Neoarchean (... Read More about The nature and age of basement host rocks and fissure fills in the Lancaster field fractured reservoir, West of Shetland.

Climate change and its consequences at environmental, social and economic level will affect all of us, in particular the children of today who are the world’s citizens of tomorrow. However, the causes, conseque... Read More about Taking Current Climate Change Research to the Classroom—The “Will Hermit Crabs Go Hungry in Future Oceans?” Project.

Gender, property and succession in the early modern English aristocracy: the case of Martha Janes and her illegitimate children (2019)
Journal Article
Worthen, H., McDonagh, B., & Capern, A. (2019). Gender, property and succession in the early modern English aristocracy: the case of Martha Janes and her illegitimate children. Women's History Review, 1-20. https://doi.org/10.1080/09612025.2019.1696414

This article addresses the boundaries of female power within early modern aristocratic families. It examines the family arrangements of Lord Emmanuel Scroop whose marriage to Elizabeth Manners was childless. The research sets out to uncover Lord Scro...

Three-dimensional modelling of suspended sediment transport in the far wake of tidal stream turbines (2019)
Journal Article
Li, X., Li, M., Amoudry, L. O., Ramirez-Mendoza, R., Thorne, P. D., Song, Q., Zheng, P., Simmons, S., Jordan, L. B., & McLelland, S. J. (2020). Three-dimensional modelling of suspended sediment transport in the far wake of tidal stream turbines. Renewable energy, 151, 956-965. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2019.11.096

A three-dimensional tidal turbine simulation based on an oceanographic numerical model has been tested for suspended sediment calculation, particularly in the wake of a standalone tidal turbine. The results suggest a need for further improvement of t... Read More about Three-dimensional modelling of suspended sediment transport in the far wake of tidal stream turbines.

Thermal performance analysis of a solar energy storage unit encapsulated with HITEC salt/copper foam/nanoparticles composite (2019)
Journal Article
Xiao, X., Jia, H., Wen, D., & Zhao, X. (2020). Thermal performance analysis of a solar energy storage unit encapsulated with HITEC salt/copper foam/nanoparticles composite. Energy, 192, 116593. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2019.116593

HITEC salt (40 wt. % NaNO2, 7 wt. % NaNO3, 53 wt. % KNO3) with a melting temperature of about 142 °C is a typical phase change material (PCM) for solar energy storage. Both aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nanopowder and metal foam were used to enhance pure HI...
