How quickly does wood fragment in rivers? Methodological challenges, preliminary findings, and perspectives (2024)
Journal Article
Hortobágyi, B., Milan, D., Bourgeau, F., & Piégay, H. (2024). How quickly does wood fragment in rivers? Methodological challenges, preliminary findings, and perspectives. Earth surface processes and landforms : the journal of the British Geomorphological Research Group, https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.5877

Large wood plays a significant role in fluvial ecosystems, influencing river geomorphology and ecology. However, it poses both benefits to river systems and risks, making it essential to understand its dynamics for effective management. A better unde...

PFAS River Export Analysis Highlights the Urgent Need for Catchment-Scale Mass Loading Data (2024)
Journal Article
Byrne, P., Mayes, W. M., James, A. L., Comber, S., Biles, E., Riley, A. L., & Runkel, R. L. (2024). PFAS River Export Analysis Highlights the Urgent Need for Catchment-Scale Mass Loading Data. Environmental Science and Technology Letters, 11(3), 266–272. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.estlett.4c00017

Source apportionment of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) requires an understanding of the mass loading of these compounds in river basins. However, there is a lack of temporally variable and catchment-scale mass loading data, meaning identi...

Exploring farmer and advisor lameness management behaviors using the COM-B model of behavior change (2024)
Journal Article
Clark, B., Proctor, A., Mahon, N., & Holloway, L. (2024). Exploring farmer and advisor lameness management behaviors using the COM-B model of behavior change. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 11, Article 1258906. https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2024.1258906

Introduction: This paper applies the COM-B framework to farmer and farm advisor understandings and responses to lameness in sheep, beef, and dairy systems. It reflects on how farmers' and advisors' capability, opportunity, and motivation (COM-B) infl...

The contamination of in situ archaeological remains: A pilot analysis of microplastics in sediment samples using μFTIR (2024)
Journal Article
Rotchell, J. M., Mendrik, F., Chapman, E., Flintoft, P., Panter, I., Gallio, G., …Schofield, J. (2024). The contamination of in situ archaeological remains: A pilot analysis of microplastics in sediment samples using μFTIR. The Science of the total environment, 914, Article 169941. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.169941

Background: Microplastics (MPs) are found in all environments: aquatic, airborne, and terrestrial. While their presence is not disputed, their potential impacts are not yet known. Objective: To undertake a pilot analysis of MP contamination in archae...
