Estimating bike-share trips using station level data (2015)
Journal Article
Médard de Chardon, C., & Caruso, G. (2015). Estimating bike-share trips using station level data. Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 78, 260-279. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trb.2015.05.003

Bicycle sharing systems (BSS) have increased in number rapidly since 2007. The potential benefits of BSS, mainly sustainability, health and equity, have encouraged their adoption through support and promotion by mayors in Europe and North America ali...

Prices in parallel currency: The case of the exchange network of Chania (2015)
Journal Article
Sotiropoulou, I. (2015). Prices in parallel currency: The case of the exchange network of Chania. International Journal of Community Currency Research, 19(Special Issue), D128-136. https://doi.org/10.15133/j.ijccr.2015.013

This paper investigates the prices set within the Exchange Network of Chania and tries to examine what prices are attributed to which products and services, how those prices are set and what they reveal about the values of the goods offered. Moreover... Read More about Prices in parallel currency: The case of the exchange network of Chania.

The inherent instability of leveed seafloor channels (2015)
Journal Article
Dorrell, R. M., Burns, A. D., & McCaffrey, W. D. (2015). The inherent instability of leveed seafloor channels. Geophysical research letters, 42(10), 4023-4031. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015GL063809

©2015. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved. New analytical models demonstrate that under aggradational flow conditions, seafloor channel-levee systems are inherently unstable; both channel area and stability necessarily decrease at long t...

Price based demand side management: A persuasive smart energy management system for low/medium income earners (2015)
Journal Article
Ogunjuyigbe, A., Monyei, C., & Ayodele, T. (2015). Price based demand side management: A persuasive smart energy management system for low/medium income earners. Sustainable Cities and Society SCC, 17, 80-94. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scs.2015.04.004

This paper presents a persuasive smart energy management system (PSEMS) which incorporates the peculiarities of the developing economies, for low/medium income earners, under the flat pricing regime. The PSEMS uses an algorithm based on mild modified... Read More about Price based demand side management: A persuasive smart energy management system for low/medium income earners.

Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder? (2015)
Journal Article
Ramirez, J. A., Baird, A. J., Coulthard, T. J., & Waddington, J. M. (2015). Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder?. Geophysical research letters, 42(9), 3371-3379. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015gl063469

Bubbling (ebullition) of greenhouse gases, particularly methane, from peatlands has been attributed to environmental forcings, such as changes in atmospheric pressure. However, observations from peat soils suggest that ebullition and environmental fo... Read More about Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder?.

Evaluating the importance of catchment hydrological parameters for urban surface water flood modelling using a simple hydro-inundation model (2015)
Journal Article
Yu, D., & Coulthard, T. J. (2015). Evaluating the importance of catchment hydrological parameters for urban surface water flood modelling using a simple hydro-inundation model. Journal of hydrology, 524(May), 385-400. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2015.02.040

The influence of catchment hydrological processes on urban flooding is often considered through river discharges at a source catchment outlet, negating the role of other upstream areas that may add to the flooding. Therefore, where multiple entry poi... Read More about Evaluating the importance of catchment hydrological parameters for urban surface water flood modelling using a simple hydro-inundation model.

The pervasive role of biological cohesion in bedform development (2015)
Journal Article
Malarkey, J., Baas, J. H., Hope, J. A., Aspden, R. J., Parsons, D. R., Peakall, J., Paterson, D. M., Schindler, R. J., Ye, L., Lichtman, I. D., Bass, S. J., Davies, A. G., Manning, A. J., & Thorne, P. D. (2015). The pervasive role of biological cohesion in bedform development. Nature communications, 6(1), Article ARTN 6257. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms7257

Sediment fluxes in aquatic environments are crucially dependent on bedform dynamics. However, sediment-flux predictions rely almost completely on clean-sand studies, despite most environments being composed of mixtures of non-cohesive sands, physical...

In search of ‘lost’ knowledge and outsourced expertise in flood risk management (2015)
Journal Article
Haughton, G., Bankoff, G., & Coulthard, T. J. (2015). In search of ‘lost’ knowledge and outsourced expertise in flood risk management. Transactions - Institute of British Geographers, 40(3), 375-386. https://doi.org/10.1111/tran.12082

This paper examines the parallel discourses of ‘lost’ local flood expertise and the growing use of commercial consultancies to outsource aspects of flood risk work. We critically examine the various claims and counter-claims about lost, local and ext... Read More about In search of ‘lost’ knowledge and outsourced expertise in flood risk management.

Journal Article
Skinner, C. J., Coulthard, T. J., Parsons, D. R., Ramirez, J. A., Mullen, L., & Manson, S. (2015). Simulating tidal and storm surge hydraulics with a simple 2D inertia based model, in the Humber Estuary, U.K. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 155(March), 126-136. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2015.01.019

The hydraulic modelling of tidal estuarine environments has been largely limited to complex 3D models that are computationally expensive. This makes them unsuitable for applications which make use of live data to make real/near time forecasts, such a...
