Understanding temporal variability in fish and eel movements to minimise the likelihood of entrainment at water pumping stations (2019)
Thesis
Norman, J. Understanding temporal variability in fish and eel movements to minimise the likelihood of entrainment at water pumping stations. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222522

Rivers in the United Kingdom have been subject to extensive modification to meet societal demands for navigation, drinking water, industry, hydropower, drainage, and abstraction. This heavy pressure on river resources has resulted in many constrained...

Characterising the drivers of tropical freshwater fish dynamics and abundance in the Mekong river, under environmental change (2019)
Thesis
Santos, R. F. A. D. Characterising the drivers of tropical freshwater fish dynamics and abundance in the Mekong river, under environmental change. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221843

The Mekong river’s monsoon driven annual flood pulse creates a range of diverse habitats, with high levels of connectivity and primary productivity that support and trigger fish migratory dynamics and abundance. This abundance is reflected in the fac... Read More about Characterising the drivers of tropical freshwater fish dynamics and abundance in the Mekong river, under environmental change.

The nutritional ecology of farmland bees : behavioural and community approach (2019)
Thesis
Austin, A. J. The nutritional ecology of farmland bees : behavioural and community approach. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221704

Nutritional degradation, attributed to agriculture, is a primary driver of bee declines, yet we know very little about bee larval nutrition. How larvae deal with nutritional variation in their provisions remains relatively unexplored. Additionally, t...

An investigation of the uptake of estradiol in the bivalve Mytilus spp. corresponding biological implications and the effect of the addition of Sporopollenin on bioavailability (2019)
Thesis
Harley, M. A. An investigation of the uptake of estradiol in the bivalve Mytilus spp. corresponding biological implications and the effect of the addition of Sporopollenin on bioavailability. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221927

There has been concern over the past two decades over estrogenic hormones such as 17 α-ethinylestradiol and 17 β-estradiol (E2) in fresh water and marine ecosystems and the risk to aquatic organisms even with low exposure levels. This study is to acc...

Modelling the morphodynamics of sandy coastal systems under a changing climate (2019)
Thesis
Morris, C. S. Modelling the morphodynamics of sandy coastal systems under a changing climate. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222460

Coasts are vulnerable to changing environmental conditions and are likely to be affected by predicted sea level rise and wave climate variations over the next century. Predicting the likely response of coastal systems to these changes, including alte... Read More about Modelling the morphodynamics of sandy coastal systems under a changing climate.
