Environment International, 134, Article 105218. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2019.105218

Plasma selenium (Se) concentration is an established population level biomarker of Se status, especially in Se-deficient populations. Previously observed correlations between dietary Se intake and urinary Se excretion suggest that urine Se concentrat...

Uncertainty in geological interpretations: effectiveness of expert elicitations (2019)
Journal Article
Randle, C. H., Bond, C. E., Lark, R. M., & Monaghan, A. A. (2019). Uncertainty in geological interpretations: effectiveness of expert elicitations. Geosphere, 15(1), 108-118. https://doi.org/10.1130/GES01586.1

Uncertainty in geological interpretations creates and often unquantified risk for sub- surface industries. The challenge of quantifying interpretation uncertainty has been addressed using various methods. For interpretation of borehole data, empirica...
