Journal Article
Pitman, S., Pitman, S. J., Burke, I., Burke, I. T., Jay, H., Cooper, N., Mayes, W. M., Jarvis, A., & Jarvis, A. P. (2024). Long-term coastal dynamics: The evolution of a mixed sediment mega-nourishment consisting of colliery spoil. Journal of environmental management, 371, Article 123106. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.123106

Mega-nourishments, where large volumes of sediment are deposited on coastlines, are increasingly employed to manage shoreline erosion, yet our understanding of their long-term behaviour is limited by the fact that most current schemes are less than 1...

Environmental behaviour of iron and steel slags in coastal settings (2024)
Journal Article
Riley, A. L., Cameron, J., Burke, I. T., Onnis, P., Macdonald, J. M., Gandy, C. J., Crane, R. A., Byrne, P., Comber, S., Jarvis, A. P., Hudson-Edwards, K. A., & Mayes, W. M. (2024). Environmental behaviour of iron and steel slags in coastal settings. Environmental science and pollution research, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-024-33897-4

Iron and steel slags have a long history of both disposal and beneficial use in the coastal zone. Despite the large volumes of slag deposited, comprehensive assessments of potential risks associated with metal(loid) leaching from iron and steel by-pr...

A., Jennings, E., Lewis, E., Lofts, S., MacDonald, J., MacDonald, J. M., Malcolm, H., …Jarvis, A. (2022). Incorporating conceptual site models into national-scale environmental risk assessments for legacy waste in the coastal zone. Frontiers in Environmental Science, 10, Article 1045482. https://doi.org/10.3389/fenvs.2022.1045482

Solid wastes deposited in the coastal zone that date from an era of lax environmental regulations continue to pose significant challenges for regulators and coastal managers worldwide. The increasing risk of contaminant release from these legacy disp...

Comparative assessment of marine weathering of ROP-derived biopolymers against conventional plastics (2021)
Journal Article
Rodgers, K., Mayes, W. M., Santoro, O., Redshaw, C., Mccumskay, R., & Parsons, D. R. (2021). Comparative assessment of marine weathering of ROP-derived biopolymers against conventional plastics. Marine pollution bulletin, 167, Article 112272. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2021.112272

Bio-based plastics were designed to replace single-use plastics and to cause less post-consumer environmental damage. This paper assesses the weathering of four bio-based polymers created by ring opening polymerization (ROP) promoted by a previously...
