Marine management - Towards an integrated implementation of the European marine strategy framework and the water framework directives (2010)
Journal Article
Borja, Á., Elliott, M., Carstensen, J., Heiskanen, A. S., & van de Bund, W. (2010). Marine management - Towards an integrated implementation of the European marine strategy framework and the water framework directives. Marine pollution bulletin, 60(12), 2175-2186. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2010.09.026

Through implementing environmental Directives, Europe has moved towards coordinated and integrated catchment-to-coast management, following the most novel legislation on ecosystem-based approaches worldwide. The novel joint synthesis of this directio... Read More about Marine management - Towards an integrated implementation of the European marine strategy framework and the water framework directives.

Medium-and Long-term Recovery of Estuarine and Coastal Ecosystems: Patterns, Rates and Restoration Effectiveness (2010)
Journal Article
Borja, Á., Dauer, D. M., Elliott, M., & Simenstad, C. A. (2010). Medium-and Long-term Recovery of Estuarine and Coastal Ecosystems: Patterns, Rates and Restoration Effectiveness. Estuaries and coasts : journal of the Estuarine Research Federation, 33(6), 1249-1260. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12237-010-9347-5

Many estuarine and coastal marine ecosystems have increasingly experienced degradation caused by multiple stressors. Anthropogenic pressures alter natural ecosystems and the ecosystems are not considered to have recovered unless secondary succession...

Managed realignment as compensation for the loss of intertidal mudflat: A short term solution to a long term problem? (2010)
Journal Article
Mazik, K., Musk, W., Dawes, O., Solyanko, K., Brown, S., Mander, L., & Elliott, M. (2010). Managed realignment as compensation for the loss of intertidal mudflat: A short term solution to a long term problem?. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 90(1), 11-20. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2010.07.009

Intertidal mudflats are critical to the functional ecology of estuaries yet large areas are being lost as a result of land claim, erosion and coastal squeeze. This study examines whether managed realignment (at Paull Holme Strays, Humber estuary) can...

Coastal and offshore wind energy generation: is it environmentally benign? (2010)
Journal Article
Wilson, J. C., Elliott, M., Cutts, N. D., Mander, L., Mendão, V., Perez-Dominguez, R., & Phelps, A. (2010). Coastal and offshore wind energy generation: is it environmentally benign?. Energies, 3(7), 1383-1422. https://doi.org/10.3390/en3071383

Offshore and coastal wind power is one of the fastest growing industries in many areas, especially those with shallow coastal regions due to the preferable generation conditions available in the regions. As with any expanding industry, there are conc... Read More about Coastal and offshore wind energy generation: is it environmentally benign?.

Evaluation of extraction methods for use with NMR-based metabolomics in the marine polychaete ragworm, Hediste diversicolor (2010)
Journal Article
del Carmen Alvarez, M., Donarski, J. A., Elliott, M., & Charlton, A. J. (2010). Evaluation of extraction methods for use with NMR-based metabolomics in the marine polychaete ragworm, Hediste diversicolor. Metabolomics, 6(4), 541-549. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11306-010-0222-y

The sediment-dwelling polychaete, Hediste diversicolor, is commonly found in Northern temperate estuaries. Its limited mobility and tolerance to polluted conditions makes it a good candidate for biological monitoring. Moreover, its importance in the...

The European Water Framework Directive at the age of 10: A critical review of the achievements with recommendations for the future (2010)
Journal Article
Hering, D., Borja, A., Carstensen, J., Carvalho, L., Elliott, M., Feld, C. K., Heiskanen, A. S., Johnson, R. K., Moe, J., Pont, D., Solheim, A. L., & de Bund, W. V. (2010). The European Water Framework Directive at the age of 10: A critical review of the achievements with recommendations for the future. The Science of the total environment, 408(19), 4007-4019. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2010.05.031

The European Water Framework Directive (WFD), which was adopted in 2000, changed water management in all member states of the European Union fundamentally, putting aquatic ecology at the base of management decisions. Here we review the successes and... Read More about The European Water Framework Directive at the age of 10: A critical review of the achievements with recommendations for the future.

The concept of an estuary: A definition that incorporates systems which can become closed to the ocean and hypersaline (2010)
Journal Article
Potter, I. C., Chuwen, B. M., Hoeksema, S. D., & Elliott, M. (2010). The concept of an estuary: A definition that incorporates systems which can become closed to the ocean and hypersaline. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 87(3), 497-500. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2010.01.021

The majority of the definitions of estuaries have been based on the characteristics of estuaries in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere. As previously pointed out (Day, 1980), such definitions do not take into account such features as period...
