Plausible 2050 offshore wind locations in the North Sea (2023)
Data
Waldman, S., Munro, P., & Forster, R. (2023). Plausible 2050 offshore wind locations in the North Sea. [Data]. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7109882

This dataset contains a set of points representing plausible locations for offshore wind turbines to have been built in the North Sea by the years 2030, 2035, 2040, 2045 and 2050, based off the national ambitions announced up to August 2022.
The dat... Read More about Plausible 2050 offshore wind locations in the North Sea.

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...

Effect of Operational Wind-Turbine Vibration on Surface-Dwelling Invertebrates (2023)
Book Chapter
Burgess, J., Thomas, S., Mazik, K., Al-Mudallal, S., Tang, S. K., & Breithaupt, T. (2023). Effect of Operational Wind-Turbine Vibration on Surface-Dwelling Invertebrates. In A. N. Popper, J. Sisneros, A. D. Hawkins, & F. Thomsen (Eds.), The Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life : Principles and Practical Considerations (1-20). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-10417-6_21-1

With the UK aiming to achieve 50 GW of offshore renewable energy by 2030, offshore construction will increase in tandem. The construction noise associated with wind turbine installation has gained much attention over the years, with sound emissions t...

The ecological fate of microplastic in the nearshore environment of South Georgia, a sub-Antarctic island (2023)
Thesis
Buckingham, J. The ecological fate of microplastic in the nearshore environment of South Georgia, a sub-Antarctic island. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4347844

Microplastic is a marine pollutant of global concern which has managed to penetrate remote regions. This thesis describes the first comprehensive assessment of microplastics in the nearshore environment of South Georgia, an island in the s...

Quantifying CO2 Removal at Enhanced Weathering Sites: a Multiproxy Approach (2023)
Journal Article
Knapp, W. J., Stevenson, E. I., Renforth, P., Ascough, P. L., Knight, A. C., Bridgestock, L., Bickle, M. J., Lin, Y., Riley, A. L., Mayes, W. M., & Tipper, E. T. (2023). Quantifying CO2 Removal at Enhanced Weathering Sites: a Multiproxy Approach. Environmental Science and Technology, 57(26), 9854-9864. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.3c03757

Enhanced weathering is a carbon dioxide (CO2) mitigation strategy that promises large scale atmospheric CO2 removal. The main challenge associated with enhanced weathering is monitoring, reporting, and verifying (MRV) the amount of carbon removed as...

Understanding space and habitat use of the Near Threatened Eurasian Curlew to inform the value of habitat restoration schemes for the species' conservation (2023)
Thesis
Mander, L. Understanding space and habitat use of the Near Threatened Eurasian Curlew to inform the value of habitat restoration schemes for the species' conservation. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4320699

Intertidal habitats and terrestrial habitats connected to estuaries are subject to multiple anthropogenic pressures including the indirect effect of climate change (i.e., sea-level rise). To build sustainable coastal defences and create intertidal ha...
