Recognising barriers to implementation of Blue-Green infrastructure: a Newcastle case study (2017)
Journal Article
O'Donnell, E. C., Lamond, J. E., & Thorne, C. R. (in press). Recognising barriers to implementation of Blue-Green infrastructure: a Newcastle case study. Urban Water Journal, 14(9), https://doi.org/10.1080/1573062X.2017.1279190

There is a recognised need for a fundamental change in how the UK manages urban water and flood risk in response to increasingly frequent rainfall events coupled with planned urban expansion. Approaches centred on ‘living with and making space for wa... Read More about Recognising barriers to implementation of Blue-Green infrastructure: a Newcastle case study.

Sources, cycling and export of nitrogen on the Greenland Ice Sheet (2016)
Journal Article
Wadham, J. L., Hawkings, J., Telling, J., Chandler, D., Alcock, J., Lawson, E., …Nienow, P. (2016). Sources, cycling and export of nitrogen on the Greenland Ice Sheet. Biogeosciences, 13, 6339–6352. https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-13-6339-2016

Fjord and continental shelf environments in the polar regions are host to some of the planet's most productive ecosystems and support economically important fisheries. Their productivity, however, is often critically dependent upon nutrient supply fr... Read More about Sources, cycling and export of nitrogen on the Greenland Ice Sheet.

Identification and analysis of low molecular weight dissolved organic carbon in subglacial basal ice ecosystems by ion chromatography (2016)
Journal Article
Lawson, E. C., Wadham, J. L., Lis, G. P., Tranter, M., Pickard, A. E., Stibal, M., …Fitzsimons, S. (2016). Identification and analysis of low molecular weight dissolved organic carbon in subglacial basal ice ecosystems by ion chromatography. Biogeosciences Discussions, 12(16), 14139-14174. https://doi.org/10.5194/bgd-12-14139-2015

© Author(s) 2015. Glacial runoff is an important source of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) for downstream heterotrophic activity, despite the low overall DOC concentrations. This is because of the abundance of bioavailable, low molecular weight (LMW)...

Identification and analysis of low-molecular-weight dissolved organic carbon in subglacial basal ice ecosystems by ion chromatography (2016)
Journal Article
O'Donnell, E. C., Wadham, J. L., Lis, G. P., Tranter, M., Pickard, A. E., Stibal, M., …Fitzsimons, S. (2016). Identification and analysis of low-molecular-weight dissolved organic carbon in subglacial basal ice ecosystems by ion chromatography. Biogeosciences, 13, https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-13-3833-2016

Determining the concentration and composition of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in glacial ecosystems is important for assessments of in situ microbial activity and contributions to wider biogeochemical cycles. Nonetheless, there is limited knowledge... Read More about Identification and analysis of low-molecular-weight dissolved organic carbon in subglacial basal ice ecosystems by ion chromatography.

Continuous summer export of nitrogen-rich organic matter from the greenland ice sheet inferred by ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry (2014)
Journal Article
Lawson, E. C., Bhatia, M. P., Jemma, W. L., & Elizabeth, K. B. (2014). Continuous summer export of nitrogen-rich organic matter from the greenland ice sheet inferred by ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry. Environmental Science and Technology, 48(24), 14248-14257. https://doi.org/10.1021/es501732h

Runoff from glaciers and ice sheets has been acknowledged as a potential source of bioavailable dissolved organic matter (DOM) to downstream ecosystems. This source may become increasingly significant as glacial melt rates increase in response to fut...

Delivering and evaluating the multiple flood risk benefits in Blue-Green Cities: an interdisciplinary approach (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lawson, E., Thorne, C., Ahilan, S., Allen, D., Arthur, S., Everett, G., …Wright, N. (2014). Delivering and evaluating the multiple flood risk benefits in Blue-Green Cities: an interdisciplinary approach. . https://doi.org/10.2495/friar140101

A Blue-Green City aims to recreate a naturally-oriented water cycle while contributing to the amenity of the city by bringing water management and green infrastructure together. The Blue-Green approach is more than a stormwater management strategy ai...
