Geographical and seasonal variation in Iodine content of cow’s milk in the UK and consequences for the consumer´s supply (2020)
Journal Article
Coneyworth, L. J., Welham, S. J., Coulthard, L. C., Bailey, E. H., Young, S. D., Stubberfield, J., Parsons, L., Saunders, N., Watson, E., & Homer, E. M. (2020). Geographical and seasonal variation in Iodine content of cow’s milk in the UK and consequences for the consumer´s supply. Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 59, Article 126453. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtemb.2020.126453

Background. Dairy products provide a crucial source of dietary iodine for the majority of the UK population, contributing approximately 30-40 % of daily intake. Fluctuations in the iodine content of purchased milk both seasonally and annually implies...

Effect of feeding system on enteric methane emissions from individual dairy cows on commercial farms (2018)
Journal Article
Eckert, M., Bell, M., Potterton, S., Craigon, J., Saunders, N., Wilcox, R., Hunter, M., Goodman, J., & Garnsworthy, P. (2018). Effect of feeding system on enteric methane emissions from individual dairy cows on commercial farms. Land, 7(1), https://doi.org/10.3390/land7010026

This study investigated the effects of feeding system on diurnal enteric methane (CH4) emissions from individual cows on commercial farms. Data were obtained from 830 cows across 12 farms, and data collated included production records, CH4 measuremen...

Does the diurnal pattern of enteric methane emissions from dairy cows change over time? (2018)
Journal Article
Bell, M., Craigon, J., Saunders, N., Goodman, J., & Garnsworthy, P. (2018). Does the diurnal pattern of enteric methane emissions from dairy cows change over time?. Animal, 12(10), 2065-2070. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1751731118000228

Diet manipulation and genetic selection are two important mitigation strategies for reducing enteric methane (CH4) emissions from ruminant livestock. The aim of this study was to assess whether the diurnal pattern of CH4 emissions from individual dai...

Methane emissions among individual dairy cows during milking quantified by eructation peaks or ratio with carbon dioxide (2014)
Journal Article
Bell, M. J., Saunders, N., Wilcox, R., Homer, E., Goodman, J., Craigon, J., & Garnsworthy, P. (2014). Methane emissions among individual dairy cows during milking quantified by eructation peaks or ratio with carbon dioxide. Journal of Dairy Science, 97(10), 6536-6546. https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2013-7889

The aims of this study were to compare methods for examining measurements of CH4 and CO2 emissions of dairy cows during milking and to assess repeatability and variation of CH4 emissions among individual dairy cows. Measurements of CH4 and CO2 emissi... Read More about Methane emissions among individual dairy cows during milking quantified by eructation peaks or ratio with carbon dioxide.

Variation in enteric methane emissions among cows on commercial dairy farms (2014)
Journal Article
Bell, M., Potterton, S., Craigon, J., Saunders, N., Wilcox, R., Hunter, M., Goodman, J., & Garnsworthy, P. (2014). Variation in enteric methane emissions among cows on commercial dairy farms. Animal, 8(9), 1540-1546. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1751731114001530

Methane (CH4) emissions by dairy cows vary with feed intake and diet composition. Even when fed on the same diet at the same intake, however, variation between cows in CH4 emissions can be substantial. The extent of variation in CH4 emissions among d...
