Analysis of thirty-one hours of video-data documenting 36 experienced drivers highlighted the prevalence of face-touching, with 819 contacts identified (mean frequency: 26.4 face touches/hour (FT/h); mean duration: 3.9-seconds). Fewer face-touches oc... Read More about U can’t touch this! Face touching behaviour whilst driving: implications for health, hygiene and human factors.

MPeat—A fully coupled mechanical-ecohydrological model of peatland development (2021)
Journal Article

Mathematical models of long-term peatland development have been produced to analyse peatland behaviour. However, existing models ignore the mechanical processes that have the potential to provide important feedback. Here, we propose a one-dimensional...

International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control, 111, Article 103479. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijggc.2021.103479

Gaseous impurities, such as O2, are expected to be present within CO2 captured for storage. This could stimulate microbial activity in a geological CO2 storage site which has the potential to lead to operational issues such as injection well blockage...
