The Contribution of Major Historical Orefields to Coastal Trace Metal(loid) Fluxes in North-East England (2023)
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...

A GIS-Based Prioritisation of Coastal Legacy Mine Spoil Deposits in England and Wales for Effective Future Management (2021)
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 (2021)
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...

Processing and exploitation of multisensor optical data for coastal water applications-The HIGHROC project (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ruddick, K., Brockmann, C., Créach, V., De Keukelaere, L., Doxaran, D., Forster, R., Jaccard, P., Knaeps, E., Lebreton, C., Ledang, A. B., Nechad, B., Norli, M., Novoa, S., Ody, A., Pringle, N., Sorensen, K., Stelzer, K., Van Der Zande, D., & Vanhellemont, Q. Processing and exploitation of multisensor optical data for coastal water applications-The HIGHROC project

The FP7/HIGHROC ("HIGH spatial and temporal Resolution Ocean Colour") Project is developing the next generation of optical products for coastal water services. These products are based on both mainstream ocean colour sensors (Sentinel-3/OLCI, VIIRS)...

Fighting behaviour and the role of urinary signals in dominance assessment of Norway lobsters, Nephrops norvegicus (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Breithaupt, T., Johnson, M., & Katoh, E. Fighting behaviour and the role of urinary signals in dominance assessment of Norway lobsters, Nephrops norvegicus

Norway lobsters, Nephrops norvegicus, live on the bottom of the continental shelf where they construct and defend burrows. Little is known about their agonistic behaviour and potential mechanisms of dominance. This paper investigates fighting behavio...

The effects of chemical pollution on the bioturbation potential of estuarine intertidal mudflats (2000)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mazik, K., & Elliott, M. The effects of chemical pollution on the bioturbation potential of estuarine intertidal mudflats

Bioturbation by benthic infauna has important implications for the fate of contaminants as well as for changes to the sediment structure, chemistry and transport characteristics. There is an extensive literature dealing with the influence of sediment... Read More about The effects of chemical pollution on the bioturbation potential of estuarine intertidal mudflats.

Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Harding, H. R., Voellmy, I., Simpson, S. D., Radford, A. N., Breithaupt, T., Elliott, M., Roberts, L., Simpson, S., Bruintjes, R., Harding, H., Radford, A., & Voellmy, I. K. Exposure of benthic invertebrates to sediment vibration: From laboratory experiments to outdoor simulated pile-driving

Activities directly interacting with the seabed, such as pile-driving, can produce vibrations that have the potential to impact benthic invertebrates within their vicinity. This stimuli may interfere with crucial behaviors such as foraging and predat...
