Pollutant accumulation in road mitigation tunnels for amphibians: A multisite comparison on an ignored but important issue (2023)
Journal Article
White, K. J., Mayes, W., & Petrovan, S. O. (2023). Pollutant accumulation in road mitigation tunnels for amphibians: A multisite comparison on an ignored but important issue. Frontiers in ecology and evolution, 11, Article 1133253. https://doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2023.1133253

Underpasses or road tunnels are increasingly installed to reconnect habitats and ensure safe wildlife passage, thus preventing habitat fragmentation caused by roads and mortality from collisions with vehicles. In the UK, such underpasses are regularl... Read More about Pollutant accumulation in road mitigation tunnels for amphibians: A multisite comparison on an ignored but important issue.

On the role of transverse motion in pseudo-steady gravity currents (2023)
Journal Article
Marshall, C. R., Dorrell, R. M., Keevil, G. M., Peakall, J., & Tobias, S. M. (2023). On the role of transverse motion in pseudo-steady gravity currents. Experiments in Fluids, 64(3), Article 63. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00348-023-03599-7

Flow in the body of gravity currents is typically assumed to be statistically two-dimensional, and cross-stream flow is often neglected (Simpson 1997; Meiburg et al. 2015). Here, we assess the validity of such assumptions using Shake-the-Box particle... Read More about On the role of transverse motion in pseudo-steady gravity currents.
