Communal Geographies: An Introduction (2023)
Journal Article
Gupta, C., & Legg, S. (2023). Communal Geographies: An Introduction. South Asia: Journal of South Asian Studies, 46(6), 1168-1183. https://doi.org/10.1080/00856401.2024.2303215

This paper introduces a special section comprising eight papers that delve into complex geographies of communal identities in modern South Asia. It situates these papers at a significant intersection of spatial histories and historical geographies of... Read More about Communal Geographies: An Introduction.

FTIR spectra from grass pollen: A quest for species-level resolution of Poaceae and Cerealia-type pollen grains (2023)
Journal Article
Katsi, F., Kent, M. S., Jones, M., Fraser, W. T., Jardine, P. E., Eastwood, W., …Lomax, B. H. (2024). FTIR spectra from grass pollen: A quest for species-level resolution of Poaceae and Cerealia-type pollen grains. Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology, 321, Article 105039. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.revpalbo.2023.105039

Palynological analysis based on spore and pollen morphology is well established in the field of palaeo-environmental reconstruction but is currently not fully exploited for understanding the history and development of cereal cultivation due to diffic...

Value pluralism, religious particularity, and environmental policy in pursuit of a sustainable future (2023)
Journal Article
Ives, C. D. (in press). Value pluralism, religious particularity, and environmental policy in pursuit of a sustainable future. Reviews in Science, Religion and Theology, 2(4), 4-26

Science has presented a clear picture about global environmental destabilisation and the need for dramatic solutions to ensure a safe and flourishing future. Current policy approaches are grossly insufficient to reverse the decline in key indicators...

Understanding the functioning of urban climate finance through topologies of reach (2023)
Journal Article
Grafe, F. J., Forino, G., Fraser, A., Hilbrandt, H., & Morris, J. H. (2023). Understanding the functioning of urban climate finance through topologies of reach. City, https://doi.org/10.1080/13604813.2023.2284383

Urban climate action is increasingly understood through the lens of finance: through financial agendas, interests, and practical tools which enable ‘bankable’ or profitable interventions. While the literature is rife with criticism of the normative f... Read More about Understanding the functioning of urban climate finance through topologies of reach.

An AI approach to operationalise global daily PlanetScope satellite imagery for river water masking (2023)
Journal Article
Valman, S. J., Boyd, D. S., Carbonneau, P. E., Johnson, M. F., & Dugdale, S. J. (2024). An AI approach to operationalise global daily PlanetScope satellite imagery for river water masking. Remote Sensing of Environment, 301, Article 113932. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2023.113932

Monitoring rivers is vital to manage the invaluable ecosystem services they provide, and also to mitigate the risks they pose to property and life through flooding and drought. Due to the vast extent and dynamic nature of river systems, Earth Observa... Read More about An AI approach to operationalise global daily PlanetScope satellite imagery for river water masking.

Public perceptions of rainwater harvesting (RWH): comparing users and non-users of RWH systems (2023)
Journal Article
Snelling, A. M., Lamond, J., Everett, G., O’Donnell, E. C., Ahilan, S., & Thorne, C. (2023). Public perceptions of rainwater harvesting (RWH): comparing users and non-users of RWH systems. Urban Water Journal, 21(2), 181-189 . https://doi.org/10.1080/1573062x.2023.2281310

The UK’s abundant municipal water supply has resulted in slow progress with the uptake of rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems within the home. Research has indicated that exploring public preferences for domestic RWH are necessary for increasing deman...

Geographical Connections in Brewing: Locating Place and Placelessness in Beer Production (2023)
Book Chapter
Massey, A. D., & Higgins, A. (2023). Geographical Connections in Brewing: Locating Place and Placelessness in Beer Production. In M. W. Patterson, & N. Hoalst-Pullen (Eds.), The Geography of Beer: Policies, Perceptions, and Place (341-348). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-39008-1_26

Unlike its place-oriented cousin, wine, beer production has a complicated relationship with geographic concepts of place and scale. The act of brewing and beer itself both simultaneously exhibits qualities of placelessness and rootedness. Therefore,...

Rethinking “surplus populations” Theory from the peripheries (2023)
Journal Article
Cowan, T., Campbell, S., & Kalb, D. (2023). Rethinking “surplus populations” Theory from the peripheries. Focaal, 2023(97), 7-21. https://doi.org/10.3167/fcl.2023.970102

Critical scholarship on twenty-first century capitalist development has called attention to certain structural limits on employment growth. Large populations excluded from formal employment are seen to eke out a precarious subsistence in informal eco... Read More about Rethinking “surplus populations” Theory from the peripheries.
