A multiproxy palaeolimnological investigation of Holocene environmental change, between c. 10 700 and 7200 years BP, at Holebudalen, southern Norway (2008)
Journal Article
Panizzo, V. N., Jones, V. J., Birks, H. J., Boyle, J. F., Brooks, S. J., & Leng, M. J. (2008). A multiproxy palaeolimnological investigation of Holocene environmental change, between c. 10 700 and 7200 years BP, at Holebudalen, southern Norway. Holocene, 18(5), 805-817. https://doi.org/10.1177/0959683608089217

Geochemical analyses (x-ray fluorescence, δ13C and C/N ratios) were used to reconstruct early Holocene environments (between 10685 and 7260 cal. yr BP) at a small lake near Holebudalen, southern Norway. Results show a period of increasing stability,...

Reconstructing hydrological variability in Lake Baikal during MIS 11: An application of oxygen isotope analysis of diatom silica (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mackay, A. W., Karabanov, E., Leng, M. J., Sloane, H. J., Morley, D. W., Panizzo, V. N., Khursevich, G., & Williams, D. (2007, April). Reconstructing hydrological variability in Lake Baikal during MIS 11: An application of oxygen isotope analysis of diatom silica. Presented at Isotopes in Biogenic Silica (IBiS), Nottingham, UK

In this paper we reconstruct hydrological variability in Lake Baikal during Marine Isotope Stage 11 (MIS 11) (427-362 ka BP) from oxygen isotope analysis of diatom silica. Highest δ18Odiatom values are found during MIS 11.3, highlighting the dominanc...

New insights into the internationalization of producer services: Organizational strategies and spatial economies for global headhunting firms (2008)
Journal Article
Faulconbridge, J. R., Hall, S. J., & Beaverstock, J. V. (2008). New insights into the internationalization of producer services: Organizational strategies and spatial economies for global headhunting firms. Environment and Planning A, 40(1), 210-234. https://doi.org/10.1068/a3924

This paper uses the exemplar of global headhunting firms to provide new insights into the intricacies of internationalization and related 'spatial economies' of producer services in the world economy. In particular, we unpack the complex relationship...

Isotope offsets in marine diatom δ18O over the last 200 ka (2008)
Journal Article
Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., Sloane, H. J., & Maslin, M. A. (2008). Isotope offsets in marine diatom δ18O over the last 200 ka. Journal of Quaternary Science, 23(4), https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.1185

Previous work has suggested that a species effect may be present in diatom oxygen isotope ratios (δ18Odiatom). While predominantly attributed to be a size related species effect, currently the precise mechanism remains unknown. Here, two size fractio...

Ambivalent improvements: biography, biopolitics, and colonial Delhi (2008)
Journal Article
Stephen, L. (2008). Ambivalent improvements: biography, biopolitics, and colonial Delhi. Environment and Planning A, 40(1), https://doi.org/10.1068/a38460

This paper explores the ambivalent feelings towards the Government of India produced in one of the government’s own employees. In establishing the Delhi Improvement Trust in the 1930s, Arthur Parke Hume had to battle against governmental cost cutting...

Harshness in image classification accuracy assessment (2008)
Journal Article
Foody, G. M. (2008). Harshness in image classification accuracy assessment. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 29(11), https://doi.org/10.1080/01431160701442120

Thematic mapping via a classification analysis is one of the most common applications of remote sensing. The accuracy of image classifications is, however, often viewed negatively. Here, it is suggested that the approach to the evaluation of image cl... Read More about Harshness in image classification accuracy assessment.

RVM-based multi-class classification of remotely sensed data (2008)
Journal Article
Foody, G. M. (2008). RVM-based multi-class classification of remotely sensed data. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 29(6), https://doi.org/10.1080/01431160701822115

The relevance vector machine (RVM), a Bayesian extension of the support vector machine (SVM), has considerable potential for the analysis of remotely sensed data. Here, the RVM is introduced and used to derive a multi-class classification of land cov... Read More about RVM-based multi-class classification of remotely sensed data.

Crop classification by a support vector machine with intelligently selected training data for an operational application (2008)
Journal Article
Mathur, A., & Foody, G. M. (2008). Crop classification by a support vector machine with intelligently selected training data for an operational application. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 29(8), https://doi.org/10.1080/01431160701395203

The accuracy of supervised classification is dependent to a large extent on the training data used. The aim is often to capture a large training set to fully describe the classes spectrally, commonly with the requirements of a conventional statistica...
