Eutrophication has a greater influence on floodplain lake carbon cycling than dam installation across the middle Yangtze region (2022)
Journal Article
Zeng, L., McGowan, S., Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., & Chen, X. (2022). Eutrophication has a greater influence on floodplain lake carbon cycling than dam installation across the middle Yangtze region. Journal of Hydrology, 614, Article 128510. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2022.128510

Carbon cycling in shallow floodplain lakes is complex due to variability in delivery of flood-derived allochthonous organic matter (OM). Human activities have potential to significantly modify the carbon balance of lakes by damming which restricts ex...

Urbanization and seasonality strengthens the CO 2 capacity of the Red River Delta, Vietnam (2022)
Journal Article
Salgado, J., Duc, T. A., Nga, D. T., Panizzo, V. N., Bass, A. M., Zheng, Y., Taylor, S., Roberts, L. R., Lacey, J. H., Leng, M. J., & McGowan, S. (2022). Urbanization and seasonality strengthens the CO 2 capacity of the Red River Delta, Vietnam. Environmental Research Letters, 17(10), Article 104052. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/ac9705

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., McGowan, S., Trinh, D. A., Leng, M. J., & 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...

Nutrient availability in the North Pacific region not primarily driven by climate through the Quaternary (2022)
Journal Article
Snelling, A. M., Swann, G. E., Pashley, V., Lacey, J. H., Horstwood, M. S., & Leng, M. J. (2022). Nutrient availability in the North Pacific region not primarily driven by climate through the Quaternary. Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 601, Article 111109. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2022.111109

The subarctic North Pacific Ocean is a relatively understudied region in terms of palaeoclimate, limiting our understanding of how the region has both driven and responded to palaeoenvironmental events. Today, the subarctic North Pacific Ocean is mar... Read More about Nutrient availability in the North Pacific region not primarily driven by climate through the Quaternary.

Response of a low elevation carbonate lake in the Yucatan Peninsula (Mexico) to climatic and human forcings (2022)
Journal Article
Metcalfe, S. E., Holmes, J. A., Jones, M. D., Gonzalez, R. M., Primmer, N. J., Dyrzo, H. M., Davies, S. J., & Leng, M. J. (2022). Response of a low elevation carbonate lake in the Yucatan Peninsula (Mexico) to climatic and human forcings. Quaternary Science Reviews, 282, Article 107445. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2022.107445

The importance of climate change, specifically drought, across the Maya region in the northern Neotropics, remains a topic of lively debate. Part of this discussion hinges on the coherency of response to climatic variability across different archives...

Silicic Acid Cycling in the Bering Sea During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (2022)
Journal Article
Worne, S., Swann, G. E., Kender, S., Lacey, J. H., & Leng, M. J. (2022). Silicic Acid Cycling in the Bering Sea During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition. Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 37(2), Article e2021PA004284. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021PA004284

The rate of deep-ocean carbon burial is considered important for modulating glacial-interglacial atmospheric CO2 concentrations and global climate during the Quaternary. It has been suggested that glacial iron fertilization and increased efficiency o... Read More about Silicic Acid Cycling in the Bering Sea During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition.
