Renewing approaches to understanding the minerals and waters at alkaline waste sites (2021)
Thesis
Bastianini, L. (2021). Renewing approaches to understanding the minerals and waters at alkaline waste sites [Doctoral thesis, University of Hull]. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4224152

Highly alkaline (pH 9-12) waters can arise from a range of natural and anthropogenic processes. The latter include drainage waters from a range of globally significant anthropogenic by-products such as lime, cement and steel wastes, bauxite processin...

Simulated marine plastics pollution weathering : a novel laboratory system for weathering plastics (2021)
Thesis
McCumskay, R. (2021). Simulated marine plastics pollution weathering : a novel laboratory system for weathering plastics [Masters thesis, University of Hull]. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223038

Over the last three years there has been a call for more environmentally relevant laboratory weathering experiments. These experiments would require well-defined reaction conditions and standardised reporting of both the rate of degradation and metho...

Extending the flood record - assessing the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood data (2019)
Thesis
Moloney, J. L. (2019). Extending the flood record - assessing the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood data [Doctoral thesis, University of Hull]. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222112

This study assesses the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood records in relation to the British database, which is a collection of radiocarbon dated geomorphological fluvial deposits used to infer the flood-frequency record during the Holocene. T... Read More about Extending the flood record - assessing the uncertainty and viability of palaeoflood data.

Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentology, palaeoceanography and micropalaeontology of the Uruguayan continental slope (2019)
Thesis
McGuire, C. J. (2019). Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentology, palaeoceanography and micropalaeontology of the Uruguayan continental slope [Doctoral thesis, University of Hull]. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223202

This study utilises an extensive set of sediment cores collected from a largely unstudied contourite and turbidite depositional system located on the Uruguay continental margin to identify a method of distinguishing deposits in the deep sea that are...

Steel slag leachates : environmental risks and metal recovery opportunities (2015)
Thesis
Oty, U. V. (2015). Steel slag leachates : environmental risks and metal recovery opportunities [Doctoral thesis, University of Hull]. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218366

Steel slag wastes are large volume residues generated in increasing quantities globally during steel production. While there are many afteruses for slag, roughly a quarter produced globally is stockpiled or landfilled where it may pose environmental...
