In silico evidence for the utility of parsimonious root phenotypes for improved vegetative growth and carbon sequestration under drought (2022)
Journal Article
Schäfer, E. D., Ajmera, I., Farcot, E., Owen, M. R., Band, L. R., & Lynch, J. P. (2022). In silico evidence for the utility of parsimonious root phenotypes for improved vegetative growth and carbon sequestration under drought. Frontiers in Plant Science, 13, Article 1010165. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2022.1010165

Drought is a primary constraint to crop yields and climate change is expected to increase the frequency and severity of drought stress in the future. It has been hypothesized that crops can be made more resistant to drought and better able to sequest...

Modeling root loss reveals impacts on nutrient uptake and crop development (2022)
Journal Article
Schäfer, E. D., Owen, M. R., Band, L. R., Farcot, E., Bennett, M. J., & Lynch, J. P. (2022). Modeling root loss reveals impacts on nutrient uptake and crop development. Plant Physiology, 190(4), 2260-2278. https://doi.org/10.1093/plphys/kiac405

Abstract Despite the widespread prevalence of root loss in plants, its effects on crop productivity are not fully understood. While root loss reduces the capacity of plants to take up water and nutrients from the soil, it may provide benefits by decr...

The effect of renewable energy incorporation on power grid stability and resilience (2022)
Journal Article
Smith, O., Cattell, O., Farcot, E., O'Dea, R. D., & Hopcraft, K. I. (2022). The effect of renewable energy incorporation on power grid stability and resilience. Science Advances, 8(9), Article eabj6734. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.abj6734

Contemporary proliferation of renewable power generation is causing an overhaul in the topology, composition, and dynamics of electrical grids. These low-output, intermittent generators are widely distributed throughout the grid, including at the hou...

Show me the money: Income inequality and segregation in UK cities (2022)
Journal Article
Cauvain, J., Long, G., Whiteley, T., & Farcot, E. (2022). Show me the money: Income inequality and segregation in UK cities. Area, 54(4), 591-601. https://doi.org/10.1111/area.12784

The social geography of cities is argued to be changing globally; rising economic inequality is associated with increasing segregation. Yet, income inequality has been predominantly mobilised through national and regional imaginaries. In cities, a nu... Read More about Show me the money: Income inequality and segregation in UK cities.
