Molecular and functional characterisation of endocrine disruption in marine invertebrates Feb 5, 2018 - Sep 30, 2021
LAY: Household products, including toothpaste, soaps, and common drugs, may be putting inland waterways and coastal environments under threat. Chemicals found in some personal care products and pharmaceuticals are accumulating in rivers, canals and e...

nutrient analysis on Winestead Drain (EA partnership) Jan 25, 2022 - Mar 31, 2022
Analysis sediment core samples nutrient levels, particularly focusing on phosphate levels to understand nutrient sources. Excess phosphates lead to eutrophication, to inform mitigation of this sources of phosphates need to be determined. Historic ph...
