Predicting uncertainty in sediment transport and landscape evolution - the influence of initial surface conditions (2015)
Journal Article
Hancock, G. R., Coulthard, T. J., & Lowry, J. B. C. (2016). Predicting uncertainty in sediment transport and landscape evolution - the influence of initial surface conditions. Computers & geosciences, 90(B), 117-130. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cageo.2015.08.014

© 2015. Numerical landscape evolution models were initially developed to examine natural catchment hydrology and geomorphology and have become a common tool to examine geomorphic behaviour over a range of time and space scales. These models all use a... Read More about Predicting uncertainty in sediment transport and landscape evolution - the influence of initial surface conditions.

Groundwater seepage landscapes from distant and local sources in experiments and on Mars (2015)
Journal Article
Marra, W. A., McLelland, S. J., Parsons, D. R., Murphy, B. J., Hauber, E., & Kleinhans, M. G. (2015). Groundwater seepage landscapes from distant and local sources in experiments and on Mars. Earth surface dynamics ESURF ; an interactive open access journal of the European Geosciences Union, 3(3), 389-408. https://doi.org/10.5194/esurf-3-389-2015

© 2014 Author(s). Valleys with theater-shaped heads can form due to the seepage of groundwater and as a result of knickpoint (waterfall) erosion generated by overland flow. This ambiguity in the mechanism of formation hampers the interpretation of su... Read More about Groundwater seepage landscapes from distant and local sources in experiments and on Mars.

Everyday practices in Greece in the shadow of property: Urban domination subverted (?) (2015)
Book Chapter
Sotiropoulou, I. (2015). Everyday practices in Greece in the shadow of property: Urban domination subverted (?). In A. Allen, A. Lampis, & M. Swilling (Eds.), Untamed Urbanisms (270-283). Routledge. https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315746692

Introduction This chapter is a first attempt to explore the stance towards property in urban space adopted by grassroots everyday practices in Greek urban centres. The schemes do not use official currency, and neither do they follow the rule of oblig... Read More about Everyday practices in Greece in the shadow of property: Urban domination subverted (?).

Fluvio-deltaic avulsions during relative sea-level fall. (2015)
Journal Article
Nijhuis, A. G., Edmonds, D. A., Caldwell, R. L., Cederberg, J. A., Slingerland, R. L., Best, J. L., Parsons, D. R., & Robinson, R. A. J. (2015). Fluvio-deltaic avulsions during relative sea-level fall. Geology, 43(8), 719-722. https://doi.org/10.1130/g36788.1

Understanding river response to changes in relative sea level (RSL) is essential for predicting fluvial stratigraphy and source-to-sink dynamics. Recent theoretical work has suggested that rivers can remain aggradational during RSL fall, but field da... Read More about Fluvio-deltaic avulsions during relative sea-level fall..

The impact of macroalgae on mean and turbulent flow fields (2015)
Journal Article
Thomas, R. E., & Mclelland, S. J. (2015). The impact of macroalgae on mean and turbulent flow fields. Journal of hydrodynamics. Ser. B, 27(3), 427-435. https://doi.org/10.1016/S1001-6058%2815%2960500-5

© 2015 Publishing House for Journal of Hydrodynamics. In this paper, we attempt to quantify the mean and turbulent flow fields around live macroalgae within a tidal inlet in Norway. Two Laminaria digitata specimens ∼0.50m apart were selected for deta... Read More about The impact of macroalgae on mean and turbulent flow fields.

Appraisal and evaluation of interurban ITS: A european survey (2015)
Journal Article
Kolosz, B. W., & Grant-Muller, S. M. (2015). Appraisal and evaluation of interurban ITS: A european survey. IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 16(3), 1070-1087. https://doi.org/10.1109/TITS.2014.2351253

Intelligent transport systems (ITS) have at their core technological systems that work together to improve transportation performance. However, this performance becomes uncertain when the technologies themselves are scrutinized alongside the benefit... Read More about Appraisal and evaluation of interurban ITS: A european survey.

Sticky stuff: redefining bedform prediction in modern and ancient environments (2015)
Journal Article
Schindler, R. J., Parsons, D. R., Ye, L., Hope, J. A., Baas, J. H., Peakall, J., Manning, A. J., Aspden, R. J., Malarkey, J., Simmons, S., Paterson, D. M., Lichtman, I. D., Davies, A. G., Thorne, P. D., & Bass, S. J. (2015). Sticky stuff: redefining bedform prediction in modern and ancient environments. Geology, 43(5), 399-402. https://doi.org/10.1130/g36262.1

The dimensions and dynamics of subaqueous bedforms are well known for cohesionless sediments. However, the effect of physical cohesion imparted by cohesive clay within mixed sand-mud substrates has not been examined, despite its recognized influence...

Grain-size controls on the morphology and internal geometry of river-dominated deltas (2015)
Journal Article
Burpee, A. P., Slingerland, R. L., Edmonds, D. A., Parsons, D., Best, J., Cederberg, J., McGuffin, A., Caldwell, R., Nijhuis, A., & Royce, J. (2015). Grain-size controls on the morphology and internal geometry of river-dominated deltas. Journal of Sedimentary Research, 85(6), 699-714. https://doi.org/10.2110/jsr.2015.39

Predictions of a delta's morphology, facies, and stratigraphy are typically derived from its relative wave, tide, and river energies, with sediment type playing a lesser role. Here we test the hypothesis that, all other factors being equal, the topse... Read More about Grain-size controls on the morphology and internal geometry of river-dominated deltas.
