Identifying the controls on nitrate and metabolic state within the Red River delta (Vietnam) with the use of stable isotopes (2023)
Journal Article
Smith, A. C., Leng, M. J., McGowan, S., Panizzo, V. N., Ngo, T. T. T., Luu, T. N. M., …Trinh, A. D. (2024). Identifying the controls on nitrate and metabolic state within the Red River delta (Vietnam) with the use of stable isotopes. Journal of Hydrology, 628, Article 130467. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2023.130467

In many places around the world, anthropogenic activities have resulted in nitrate (NO3−) pollution and changes in the metabolic state of aquatic ecosystems. Here we combined stable isotope and physico-chemical monitoring to assess the sources of NO3...

Indian Ocean glacial deoxygenation and respired carbon accumulation during mid-late Quaternary ice ages (2023)
Journal Article
Chang, L., Hoogakker, B. A. A., Heslop, D., Zhao, X., Roberts, A. P., De Deckker, P., …Harrison, R. J. (2023). Indian Ocean glacial deoxygenation and respired carbon accumulation during mid-late Quaternary ice ages. Nature Communications, 14, Article 4841. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-40452-1

Reconstructions of ocean oxygenation are critical for understanding the role of respired carbon storage in regulating atmospheric CO2. Independent sediment redox proxies are essential to assess such reconstructions. Here, we present a long magnetofos...

Ice-ocean interactions at the Northeast Greenland Ice stream (NEGIS) over the past 11,000 years (2023)
Journal Article
Lloyd, J. M., Ribeiro, S., Weckström, K., Callard, L., Ó Cofaigh, C., Leng, M. J., …Roberts, D. H. (2023). Ice-ocean interactions at the Northeast Greenland Ice stream (NEGIS) over the past 11,000 years. Quaternary Science Reviews, 308, Article 108068. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2023.108068

Recent observations have identified increased mass loss from Greenland marine-terminating outlet glaciers (MTOG) with implications for global sea-level rise and wider ocean circulation. The flow of Atlantic-sourced waters to the Greenland margin is t... Read More about Ice-ocean interactions at the Northeast Greenland Ice stream (NEGIS) over the past 11,000 years.

Ecosystem deterioration in the middle Yangtze floodplain lakes over the last two centuries: Evidence from sedimentary pigments (2023)
Journal Article
Zeng, L., Swann, G. E., Leng, M. J., Chen, X., Ji, J., Huang, X., & McGowan, S. (2023). Ecosystem deterioration in the middle Yangtze floodplain lakes over the last two centuries: Evidence from sedimentary pigments. Quaternary Science Reviews, 302, Article 107954. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2023.107954

Water quality of floodplain lakes in the Yangtze region which supports ca. 450 million people is being severely compromised by nutrient pollution, climate change and dam installation resulting from intensive socio-economic development. However, due t... Read More about Ecosystem deterioration in the middle Yangtze floodplain lakes over the last two centuries: Evidence from sedimentary pigments.
