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...

Slow violence and toxic geographies: ‘Out of sight’ to whom? (2019)
Journal Article
Davies, T. (2019). Slow violence and toxic geographies: ‘Out of sight’ to whom?. Environment and Planning C: Politics and Space, https://doi.org/10.1177/2399654419841063

Toxic pollution is a form of violence. This article explores the gradual brutalities that communities surrounded by petrochemical infrastructure endure over time. Contributing to political geographies of violence and environmental justice, this paper... Read More about Slow violence and toxic geographies: ‘Out of sight’ to whom?.

The stream evolution triangle: Integrating geology, hydrology, and biology (2019)
Journal Article
Castro, J. M., & Thorne, C. R. (2019). The stream evolution triangle: Integrating geology, hydrology, and biology. River Research and Applications, 35(4), 315-326. https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3421

The foundations of river restoration science rest comfortably in the fields of geology, hydrology, and engineering, and yet, the impetus for many, if not most, stream restoration projects is biological recovery. Although Lane's stream balance equatio... Read More about The stream evolution triangle: Integrating geology, hydrology, and biology.

sPlot : a new tool for global vegetation analyses (2019)
Journal Article

Questions: Vegetation-plot records provide information on presence and cover or abundance of plants co-occurring in the same community. Vegetation-plot data are spread across research groups, environmental agencies and biodiversity research centers,... Read More about sPlot : a new tool for global vegetation analyses.

Making science public: challenges and opportunities (2019)
Report
Raman, S., Nerlich, B., Cartelet, C., de Saille, S., Hadley Kershaw, E., Hartley, S., …Tsouvalis, J. (2019). Making science public: challenges and opportunities. Leverhulme Trust

This Programme investigated the relationship between science, politics and publics in the aftermath of an influential 2000 UK House of Lords Science and Society report. We conceptualised top-down initiatives promising greater transparency around the... Read More about Making science public: challenges and opportunities.

An intersectionality-based analysis of high seas policy making stagnation and equity in United Nations negotiations (2019)
Journal Article
Sparks, J., & Silva, S. M. (2019). An intersectionality-based analysis of high seas policy making stagnation and equity in United Nations negotiations. Journal of Community Practice, 27(3-4), 260-278. https://doi.org/10.1080/10705422.2019.1647325

© 2019 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. This paper used an intersectionality-based policy analysis to critically dissect systemic power structures within the UN that likely contributed to marine policy making’s stagnation. An empirical analysis of UN o... Read More about An intersectionality-based analysis of high seas policy making stagnation and equity in United Nations negotiations.
