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...

The molecular basis of circadian and seasonal rhythms in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis (2019)
Thesis
Chapman, E. C. (2019). The molecular basis of circadian and seasonal rhythms in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222565

Exposure to regular environmental oscillations such as day/night have allowed organisms to evolve biological mechanisms to adaptively anticipate and prepare for rhythmic environmental change. A network of gene-protein interactions between clock genes... Read More about The molecular basis of circadian and seasonal rhythms in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis.

Characterising the drivers of tropical freshwater fish dynamics and abundance in the Mekong river, under environmental change (2019)
Thesis
Santos, R. F. A. D. (2019). Characterising the drivers of tropical freshwater fish dynamics and abundance in the Mekong river, under environmental change. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from 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.

Modelling the morphodynamics of sandy coastal systems under a changing climate (2019)
Thesis
Morris, C. S. (2019). Modelling the morphodynamics of sandy coastal systems under a changing climate. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from 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.

Dune dynamics under unsteady flows (2019)
Thesis
Hu, H. (2019). Dune dynamics under unsteady flows. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221728

River bedforms keep translating and deforming perpetually during their migration. During flow field unsteadiness they also change in size and shape over time and in space. However, our knowledge of how bedforms adapt to changing flows remains inadequ... Read More about Dune dynamics under unsteady flows.
