Quality not quantity: organic matter composition controls of CO₂and CH₄fluxes in neotropical peat profiles (2016)
Journal Article
Hoyos-Santillan, J., Lomax, B. H., Large, D., Turner, B. L., Boom, A., Lopez, O. R., & Sjögersten, S. (2016). Quality not quantity: organic matter composition controls of CO₂and CH₄fluxes in neotropical peat profiles. Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 103, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.soilbio.2016.08.017

Tropical peatlands represent an important source of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄) to the atmosphere. However, we do not know where in the peat profile these gases are produced and how controlling factors, such as substrate quality, which can...

A driving simulator study to explore the effects of text size on the visual demand of in-vehicle displays (2016)
Journal Article
Crundall, E., Large, D. R., & Burnett, G. (2016). A driving simulator study to explore the effects of text size on the visual demand of in-vehicle displays. Displays, 43, 23-29. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.displa.2016.05.003

Modern vehicles increasingly utilise a large display within the centre console, often with touchscreen capability, to enable access to a wide range of driving and non-driving-related functionality. The text provided on such displays can vary consider... Read More about A driving simulator study to explore the effects of text size on the visual demand of in-vehicle displays.

Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems (2016)
Journal Article
Large, D. R., Burnett, G., Benford, S., & Oliver, K. (in press). Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems. Behaviour and Information Technology, 35(10), https://doi.org/10.1080/0144929X.2016.1158317

Augmenting navigation systems with landmarks has been posited as a method of improving the effectiveness of the technology and enhancing drivers’ engagement with the environment. However, good navigational landmarks are both laborious to collect and... Read More about Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems.

Driving without wings: the effect of different digital mirror locations on the visual behaviour, performance and opinions of drivers (2016)
Journal Article
Large, D. R., Crundall, E., Burnett, G., Harvey, C., & Konstantopoulous, P. (2016). Driving without wings: the effect of different digital mirror locations on the visual behaviour, performance and opinions of drivers. Applied Ergonomics, 55, 138-148. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2016.02.003

Drivers' awareness of the rearward road scene is critical when contemplating or executing lane-change manoeuvres, such as overtaking. Preliminary investigations have speculated on the use of rear-facing cameras to relay images to displays mounted ins...
