Journal Article
Pereira, R., Panizzo, V. N., Bischoff, J., McGowan, S., Lacey, J., Moorhouse, H., …Fazry, S. (2024). Investigating the role of hydrological connectivity on the processing of organic carbon in tropical aquatic ecosystems. Frontiers in Earth Science, 11, Article 1250889. https://doi.org/10.3389/feart.2023.1250889

Inland waters are highways of carbon and nutrient flows between the land and ocean. Aquatic environments integrate multiple sources and processes over space and time that influence ecosystem functionality. The complexity of these systems and their mu...

Identifying the controls on nitrate and metabolic state within the Red River delta (Vietnam) with the use of stable isotopes. Journal of Hydrology, 628, Article 130467. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2023.130467

In many places around the world, anthropogenic activities have resulted in nitrate (NO3−) pollution and changes in the metabolic state of aquatic ecosystems. Here we combined stable isotope and physico-chemical monitoring to assess the sources of NO3...

Tropical river deltas, and the social-ecological systems they sustain, are changing rapidly due to anthropogenic activity and climatic change. Baseline data to inform sustainable management options for resilient deltas is urgently needed and palaeoli...

Prehistoric population expansion in Central Asia promoted by the Altai Holocene Climatic Optimum (2023)
Journal Article
Xiang, L., Huang, X., Sun, M., Panizzo, V. N., Huang, C., Zheng, M., …Chen, F. (2023). Prehistoric population expansion in Central Asia promoted by the Altai Holocene Climatic Optimum. Nature Communications, 14(1), Article 3102. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-38828-4

How climate change in the middle to late Holocene has influenced the early human migrations in Central Asian Steppe remains poorly understood. To address this issue, we reconstructed a multiproxy-based Holocene climate history from the sediments of K...

Urbanization and seasonality strengthens the CO 2 capacity of the Red River Delta, Vietnam (2022)
Journal Article

Tropical rivers are dynamic CO2 sources. Regional patterns in the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) and relationships with other a/biotic factors in densely populated and rapidly developing river delta regions of Southeast Asia are still poorly constrai...

In flux: Annual transport and deposition of suspended heavy metals and trace elements in the urbanised, tropical Red River Delta, Vietnam (2022)
Journal Article
Roberts, L. R., Do, N. T., Panizzo, V. N., Taylor, S., Watts, M., Hamilton, E., …Salgado, J. (2022). In flux: Annual transport and deposition of suspended heavy metals and trace elements in the urbanised, tropical Red River Delta, Vietnam. Water Research, 224, Article 119053. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2022.119053

Due to the depositional environment, river deltas are said to act as filters and sinks for pollutants. However, many deltas are also densely populated and rapidly urbanizing, creating new and increased sources of pollutants. These sources pose the ri...
