Journal Article
Caswell, B. A., & Herringshaw, L. (2023). Marine bioturbation collapse during Early Jurassic deoxygenation: implications for post-extinction marine ecosystem functioning. Geological Society Special Publications, 529(1), 311-344. https://doi.org/10.1144/SP529-2022-226

Climate change is undermining the health and integrity of seafloor ecosystems, with declines in bio-turbation expected to impact future ecosystem functioning. We explored changes in the nature and degree of bioturbation during Early Jurassic global w...

Thesis
Mummery, C. E. (2022). Stakeholder perspectives of the Social Licence to Operate: exploring the governance of shale gas development in England. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4224406

The aim of this research is to investigate the governance of Shale Gas Development (SDG) in England to determine how stakeholders perceive the regulatory regime, regulators and how they understand the associated risks and benefits. The three key rese... Read More about Stakeholder perspectives of the Social Licence to Operate: exploring the governance of shale gas development in England.

The Kimmeridge Clay Formation (KCF) is a laterally extensive, total-organic-carbon-rich succession deposited throughout northwest Europe during the Kimmeridgian–Tithonian (Late Jurassic). It has recently been postulated that an expanded Hadley cell,...

Engineering the Cambrian explosion: the earliest bioturbators as ecosystem engineers (2017)
Journal Article
Herringshaw, L. G., Callow, R. H. T., & McIlroy, D. (2017). Engineering the Cambrian explosion: the earliest bioturbators as ecosystem engineers. Geological Society Special Publications, 448(1), 369-382. https://doi.org/10.1144/sp448.18

By applying modern biological criteria to trace fossil types and assessing burrow morphology, complexity, depth, potential burrow function and the likelihood of bioirrigation, we assign ecosystem engineering impact (EEI) values to the key ichnotaxa i...

Hadley circulation and precipitation changes controling black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway (2016)
Journal Article
Armstrong, H. A., Wagner, T., Herringshaw, L. G., Farnsworth, A. J., Lunt, D. J., Harland, M., Imber, J., Loptson, C., & Atar, E. F. (2016). Hadley circulation and precipitation changes controling black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway. Paleoceanography, 31(8), 1041-1053. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015pa002911

New climate simulations using the HadCM3L model with a paleogeography of the Late Jurassic (155.5 Ma) and proxy-data corroborate that warm and wet tropical-like conditions reached as far north as the UK sector of the Jurassic Boreal Seaway (~35°N). T... Read More about Hadley circulation and precipitation changes controling black shale deposition in the Late Jurassic Boreal Seaway.

How should fracking research be funded? (2015)
Journal Article
Davies, R. J., & Herringshaw, L. G. (2016). How should fracking research be funded?. Research Ethics, 12(2), 116-118. https://doi.org/10.1177/1747016115605871

The use of hydraulic fracturing (‘fracking’) to extract oil or gas from shales is a subject of controversy. There are many scientific questions about the risks associated with the technique, and much research remains to be done. ReFINE (Researching F...

What does Ophiomorpha irregulaire really look like? (2015)
Journal Article
Leaman, M., McIlroy, D., Herringshaw, L., Boyd, C., & Callow, R. (2015). What does Ophiomorpha irregulaire really look like?. Palaeogeography, palaeoclimatology, palaeoecology, 439, 38-49. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2015.01.022

Ophiomorpha irregulaire is a surprisingly poorly characterised ichnotaxon given its common occurrence in hydrocarbon reservoir facies. Current debate surrounds the ichnotaxobases suitable for ichnospecific-level identification and also the palaeogeog... Read More about What does Ophiomorpha irregulaire really look like?.
