State of Knowledge on UK Agricultural Peatlands for Food Production and the Net Zero Transition (2023)
Journal Article
Lloyd, I., Thomas, V., Ofoegbu, C., Bradley, A. V., Bullard, P., D’Acunha, B., …Balzter, H. (2023). State of Knowledge on UK Agricultural Peatlands for Food Production and the Net Zero Transition. Sustainability, 15(23), Article 16347. https://doi.org/10.3390/su152316347

Agricultural peatlands are the most productive soils in the UK for the cultivation of many food crops. Historical drainage of peat for agriculture (i.e., cropland and managed grassland), without consideration of other associated environmental and cli...

Using a multi‐lens framework for landscape decisions (2023)
Journal Article
Cole, B., Bradley, A. V., Willcock, S., Gardner, E., Allinson, E., Hagen-Zanker, A., …Whelan, M. (2023). Using a multi‐lens framework for landscape decisions. People and Nature, 5(4), 1050-1071. https://doi.org/10.1002/pan3.10474

Landscape decisions are multi-faceted. Framing landscape decision-making as a governance process that requires a collective approach can encourage key stakeholders to come together to co-inform a discussion about their priorities and what constitutes...

Identification of typical ecohydrological behaviours using InSAR allows landscape-scale mapping of peatland condition (2022)
Journal Article
Bradley, A. V., Andersen, R., Marshall, C., Sowter, A., & Large, D. J. (2022). Identification of typical ecohydrological behaviours using InSAR allows landscape-scale mapping of peatland condition. Earth Surface Dynamics, 10(2), 261-277. https://doi.org/10.5194/esurf-10-261-2022

Better tools for rapid and reliable assessment of global peatland extent and condition are urgently needed to support action to prevent further decline of peatlands. Peatland surface motion is a response to changes in the water and gas content of a p...

Multiscale Variability and the Comparison of Ground and Satellite Radar Based Measures of Peatland Surface Motion for Peatland Monitoring (2022)
Journal Article
Marshall, C., Sterk, H. P., Gilbert, P. J., Andersen, R., Bradley, A. V., Sowter, A., …Large, D. J. (2022). Multiscale Variability and the Comparison of Ground and Satellite Radar Based Measures of Peatland Surface Motion for Peatland Monitoring. Remote Sensing, 14(2), Article 336. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs14020336

Peatland surface motion is highly diagnostic of peatland condition. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) can measure this at the landscape scale but requires ground validation. This necessitates upscaling from point to areal measures (80...

Comparing the accuracies of remote sensing global burned area products using stratified random sampling and estimation (2015)
Journal Article
Padilla, M., Stehman, S. V., Ramo, R., Corti, D., Hantson, S., Oliva, P., …Chuvieco, E. (2015). Comparing the accuracies of remote sensing global burned area products using stratified random sampling and estimation. Remote Sensing of Environment, 160, 114-121. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2015.01.005

© 2015 Elsevier Inc. The accuracies of six global burned area (BA) products for year 2008 were compared using the same validation methods and reference data to quantify accuracy of each product. The selected products include MCD64, MCD45 and Geoland2... Read More about Comparing the accuracies of remote sensing global burned area products using stratified random sampling and estimation.

Journal Article
McLaren, S. J., Leng, M. J., Knowles, T., & Bradley, A. V. (2012). Evidence of past environmental conditions during the evolution of a calcretised Wadi System in Southern Jordan using stable isotopes. Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 348-349, 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2012.05.010

A stratigraphically and temporally ordered sequence of channel calcretes preserved along the Wadi Dana, Southern Jordan, records the Quaternary evolution of the formation and infilling of rock-cut channels and their subsequent incision in a tectonica...

Relationships between phenology, radiation and precipitation in the Amazon region (2011)
Journal Article
Bradley, A. V., Gerard, F. F., Barbier, N., Weedon, G. P., Anderson, L. O., Huntingford, C., …Arai, E. (2011). Relationships between phenology, radiation and precipitation in the Amazon region. Global Change Biology, 17(6), 2245-2260. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2486.2011.02405.x

In tropical areas, Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs) still have deficiencies in simulating the timing of vegetation phenology. To start addressing this problem, standard Fourier-based methods are applied to aerosol screened monthly remotely se...
