The Contribution of Major Historical Orefields to Coastal Trace Metal(loid) Fluxes in North-East England
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Riley, A. L., Onnis, P., Gandy, C. J., Kanu, C. V., Umeobika, C. V., Cameron, J., Burke, I. T., Hudson-Edwards, K. A., Jarvis, A. P., & Mayes, W. M. (2023, July). The Contribution of Major Historical Orefields to Coastal Trace Metal(loid) Fluxes in North-East England. Presented at IMWA 2023 – ”Y Dyfodol | The Future”, Newport, Wales

Mine waters and tailings are key inputs to riverine metal(loid) transport to the coast. However, coastal areas also face local contaminant pressures, e.g. active industries and abandoned landfill sites. Annual riverine metal(loid) flux data were asse...

Long-term flood controls on semi-arid river form: Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers, eastern South Africa
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Heritage, G., Tooth, S., Entwistle, N., & Milan, D. Long-term flood controls on semi-arid river form: Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers, eastern South Africa

Rivers in the Kruger National Park, eastern South Africa, are characterised by bedrock-influenced ‘macrochannels’ containing variable alluvial thicknesses and riparian vegetation assemblages. Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers suggests that... Read More about Long-term flood controls on semi-arid river form: Evidence from the Sabie and Olifants rivers, eastern South Africa.

Morphodynamic simulation of sediment deposition patterns on a recently stripped bedrock anastomosed channel
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Milan, D., Heritage, G., Entwistle, N., & Tooth, S. Morphodynamic simulation of sediment deposition patterns on a recently stripped bedrock anastomosed channel. Presented at IAHS Scientific Assembly 2017, Port Elizabeth, South Africa

Some mixed bedrock-alluvial dryland rivers are known to undergo cycles of alluvial building during low flow periods, punctuated by stripping events during rare high magnitude flows. We focus on the Olifants River, Kruger National Park, South Africa,... Read More about Morphodynamic simulation of sediment deposition patterns on a recently stripped bedrock anastomosed channel.

A GIS-Based Prioritisation of Coastal Legacy Mine Spoil Deposits in England and Wales for Effective Future Management
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Riley, A., Onnis, P., Jennings, E., Crane, R., Hudson-Edwards, K., Comber, S., Burke, I., Byrne, P., Gandy, C., Jarvis, A., & Mayes, W. (2021, July). A GIS-Based Prioritisation of Coastal Legacy Mine Spoil Deposits in England and Wales for Effective Future Management. Presented at IMWA 2021, Newport, Wales

Increases in coastal flooding and erosion due to climate change threaten many coastal mine waste deposits in the UK. As such, a robust approach to prioritising sites for management is required. A spatial dataset of 9094 mine spoil deposits in Englan... Read More about A GIS-Based Prioritisation of Coastal Legacy Mine Spoil Deposits in England and Wales for Effective Future Management.

Biodiversity benefits of coal mine water remediation schemes for bird life
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Jaques, R. O., Moorhouse-Parry, A. M. L., Carline, R., Mayes, W. M., & Hull, S. L. (2021, July). Biodiversity benefits of coal mine water remediation schemes for bird life. Presented at International Mine Water Association 2021: Mine Water Management for Future Generations, Cardiff, UK

Lagoons and reedbeds are established components of mine water treatment systems for iron-rich coal mine drainage. This study coupled modified British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) Breeding Bird Survey monitoring with habitat survey to assess the presen...

Preliminary study of hazardous materials management: An optimization model in the context of green supply chain management
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhao, R., Neighbour, G., & Deutz, P. (2011, May). Preliminary study of hazardous materials management: An optimization model in the context of green supply chain management. Presented at 5th International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering, iCBBE 2011, Wuhan, China

Although the general framework of supply chain management usually focuses on the production process, as well as the delivery of the product to the market and the consumers, the treatment and disposal of waste materials is usually given little deliber...

Tidal Turbine Benchmarking Exercise: Environmental Characterisation and Geometry Specification
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tucker Harvey, S. W., Chen, X., Rowe, D., Bhavsar, K., Allsop, T., Gilbert, J., Stallard, T., Vogel, C. R., & Willden, R. H. J. (2021, September). Tidal Turbine Benchmarking Exercise: Environmental Characterisation and Geometry Specification. Presented at European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference (EWTEC) 2021, Plymouth, UK

Uncertainty in tidal turbine loading contributes significantly to conservatism in turbine design. This uncertainty originates not only from a lack of knowledge of the flow field at a particular site, but also from lack of understanding of the fundame...
