Market mapping for improved cookstoves: barriers and opportunities in East Africa (2019)
Journal Article
Stevens, L., Santangelo, E., Muzee, K., Clifford, M., & Jewitt, S. (2020). Market mapping for improved cookstoves: barriers and opportunities in East Africa. Development in Practice, 30(1), 37-51. https://doi.org/10.1080/09614524.2019.1658717

The East African region has been a hub for the development and marketing of improved cookstoves from the 1980s. However, there are differences in the rates of uptake of stoves between Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. To investigate, we use a participatory...

Macroinvertebrate community structure as an indicator of phosphorus enrichment in rivers (2019)
Journal Article
EVERALL, N., JOHNSON, M., WOOD, P., PAISLEY, M., TRIGG, D., & FARMER, A. (2019). Macroinvertebrate community structure as an indicator of phosphorus enrichment in rivers. Ecological Indicators, 107, Article 105619. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolind.2019.105619

Nutrient enrichment represents one of the most important causes of detriment to river ecosystem health globally. Monitoring nutrient inputs can be particularly challenging given the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of nitrogen and phosphorus concen...

Effects of mussels on nutrient cycling and bioseston in two contrasting tropical freshwater habitats (2019)
Journal Article
Zieritz, A., Najwa Binti Mahadzir, F., Ning, C. W., & Mcgowan, S. (2019). Effects of mussels on nutrient cycling and bioseston in two contrasting tropical freshwater habitats. Hydrobiologia, 835(1), 179-191. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-019-3937-4

Freshwater mussels (Unionida) can strongly affect nutrient cycling in temperate ecosystems but data from the tropics is lacking. We quantified the effects of mussel filtration, excretion and biodeposition on nutrient and photosynthetic pigment concen...
