Educational ties, social capital and the translocal (re)production of MBA alumni networks (2010)
Journal Article
Hall, S. (2011). Educational ties, social capital and the translocal (re)production of MBA alumni networks. Global Networks, 11(1), 118-138. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1471-0374.2011.00310.x

Research on elite, transnational networks has identified social and cultural capital associated with particular academic credentials as being an important element in network formation. How and why such networks are reproduced after graduation, howeve... Read More about Educational ties, social capital and the translocal (re)production of MBA alumni networks.

Professionalization, legitimization and the creation of executive search markets in Europe (2010)

Geographies of money and finance I: Cultural economy, politics and place (2010)
Journal Article
Hall, S. (2011). Geographies of money and finance I: Cultural economy, politics and place. Progress in Human Geography, 35(2), 234-245. https://doi.org/10.1177/0309132510370277

In this report, I review the intersection between cultural economy and economic geography research on money and finance. To date, economic geographers have engaged most extensively with cultural economy work on the calculative practices that (re)prod...

Aerial photosieving of exposed gravel bars for the rapid calibration of airborne grain size maps (2010)
Journal Article
Dugdale, S. J., Carbonneau, P. E., & Campbell, D. (2010). Aerial photosieving of exposed gravel bars for the rapid calibration of airborne grain size maps. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 35(6), 627-639. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1936

In recent years, fluvial remote sensing has seen considerable progress in terms of methods capable of system scale characterisation of river catchments. One key development is automated grain size mapping. It has been shown that high resolution aeria...

A comparison of the Si/Al and Si/time wet-alkaline digestion methods for measurement of biogenic silica in lake sediments (2010)
Journal Article
Swann, G. E. (2010). A comparison of the Si/Al and Si/time wet-alkaline digestion methods for measurement of biogenic silica in lake sediments. Journal of Paleolimnology, 44(2), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10933-009-9308-9

Existing techniques for measuring sediment Biogenic Silica (BSi) concentrations rely largely on conventional (Si-only) wet-alkaline digestion methods. Although results have provided detailed palaeoenvironmental information, potential errors can arise...
