Expectation, motivation, engagement and ownership: using student reflections in the conative and affective domains to enhance residential field courses. Journal of geography in higher education, 43(3), 280-298. https://doi.org/10.1080/03098265.2019.1608516

Residential field courses are important and should be designed and delivered to maximize their value to students, staff and institutions. In this context, we use a novel approach involving analysis of the daily affective and conative reflections of s...

The effects of size and shape changes on motility in Escherichia coli (AW405) (2015)
Thesis
Thornton, K. L. (2015). The effects of size and shape changes on motility in Escherichia coli (AW405). (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218475

Many microorganisms from all domains of life invest large quantities of energy on locomotion. Adopting a motile lifestyle, although energetically costly, increases the likelihood of encounters with food and nutrients, and reduces the risks of predati...

Sperm competition: Linking form to function (2008)
Journal Article
Humphries, S., Evans, J. P., & Simmons, L. W. (2008). Sperm competition: Linking form to function. BMC evolutionary biology, 8(1), Article ARTN 319. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2148-8-319

Background. Using information from physics, biomechanics and evolutionary biology, we explore the implications of physical constraints on sperm performance, and review empirical evidence for links between sperm length and sperm competition (where two...
