Knowledge makes the money go round: Conflicts of interest and corporate finance in London's financial district (2007)
Journal Article
Hall, S. (2007). Knowledge makes the money go round: Conflicts of interest and corporate finance in London's financial district. Geoforum, 38(4), 710-719. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoforum.2006.11.023

This paper argues that the conflicts of interest cases brought against Wall Street investment banks in the early 2000s were neither geographically nor institutionally isolated events. Rather, by combining recent work on financial knowledges in both e... Read More about Knowledge makes the money go round: Conflicts of interest and corporate finance in London's financial district.

Beyond the European province: Foucault and postcolonialism (2007)
Book Chapter
Legg, S. (2007). Beyond the European province: Foucault and postcolonialism. In S. Elden, & J. Crampton (Eds.), Space, knowledge and power: Foucault and geography. Ashgate. https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315610146

The colonization of most of the free world between the 16th and 21st centuries has brought not only territorial but also epistemic and historiographical violence and domination. The end of formal occupation has not signalled the withdrawal of colonia... Read More about Beyond the European province: Foucault and postcolonialism.

One-class classification for monitoring a specific land cover class: SVDD classification of fenland (2007)
Journal Article
Sanchez-Hernandez, C., Boyd, D. S., & Foody, G. M. (2007). One-class classification for monitoring a specific land cover class: SVDD classification of fenland. IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 45(4), https://doi.org/10.1109/TGRS.2006.890414

Remote sensing is a major source of land cover information. Commonly, interest focuses on a single land cover class. Although a conventional multi-class classifier may be used to provide a map depicting the class of interest the analysis is not focus...

Diatom oxygen isotopes: evidence of a species effect in the sediment record (2007)
Journal Article
Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., Sloane, H. J., Maslin, M. A., & Onodera, J. (2007). Diatom oxygen isotopes: evidence of a species effect in the sediment record. Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 8(6), Article Q06012. https://doi.org/10.1029/2006GC001535

Diatom oxygen isotope measurements are commonly made on bulk mixed species assemblages due to the difficulty in purifying and separating individual taxa. As such, it is essential to understand processes in diatoms which may lead to isotope offsets bo... Read More about Diatom oxygen isotopes: evidence of a species effect in the sediment record.

What counts? Exploring the production of quantitative financial narratives in London's corporate finance industry (2006)
Journal Article
Hall, S. (2006). What counts? Exploring the production of quantitative financial narratives in London's corporate finance industry. Journal of Economic Geography, 6(5), 661-678. https://doi.org/10.1093/jeg/lbl008

This article examines quantitative finance research practices in London's corporate finance industry. These calculative devices, produced by research analysts, are built around the modelling of a suite of financial metrics. Drawing on fieldwork condu... Read More about What counts?

A high-resolution late Holocene lake isotope record from Turkey and links to North Atlantic and monsoon climate (2006)
Journal Article
Jones, M. D., Roberts, C. N., Leng, M. J., & Türkeş, M. (2006). A high-resolution late Holocene lake isotope record from Turkey and links to North Atlantic and monsoon climate. Geology, 34(5), 361-364. https://doi.org/10.1130/G22407.1

A high resolution proxy record of precipitation and evaporation variability through the past 1700 yr from δ18O analysis of a varved lake sequence from central Turkey shows rapid shifts between dry periods (AD 300–500 and AD 1400–1950) and wetter inte...

Measurement of magnetic susceptibility (MS) and diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS) were used to construct environmental proxies in a 6.5 m section of the sediment core VER98-1-13 from the Academician Ridge, Lake Baikal. The interpretation of MS and DR... Read More about Paleoenvironmental record in Lake Baikal sediments: Environmental changes in the last 160 ky.

Potential limitations of biogenic silica as an indicator of abrupt climate change in Lake Baikal, Russia (2006)
Journal Article

Biogenic Silica (BSi) has been one of the most important proxies for determining the palaeoclimate from Lake Baikal over glacial-interglacial cycles. Concentrations (calculated through a 1% Na2CO3 wet-alkaline digestion) at a site in the north basin,...

Establishing a time frame for the development of the modern halocline and stratified water column in the subarctic North Pacific has significant paleoclimatic implications. Here we present a d18O(diatom) record consisting of only two species that rep...
