Electrical resistivity tomography to measure and monitor hydrodynamic heterogeneities in a Malawian agricultural alfisol (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Swift, R., Boyd, J., Chambers, J., Wilkinson, P., Sandram, I., Magwero, N., …Lark, M. (2023). Electrical resistivity tomography to measure and monitor hydrodynamic heterogeneities in a Malawian agricultural alfisol. In NSG2023 2nd Conference on Hydrogeophysics, Volume 2023. https://doi.org/10.3997/2214-4609.202320106

Conservation Agriculture (CA) is an agricultural method that has been shown to provide crop resilience to drought. In order to better understand the hydrodynamics in soils cultivated using CA, we installed geophysical monitoring equipment and co-loca...

Uptake competition between selenium and sulphur fertilizers in sequential harvests of ryegrass: A stable isotope study (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Jiang, L., Young, S. D., Bailey, E. H., Broadley, M. R., Graham, N. S., & McGrath, S. P. (2019). Uptake competition between selenium and sulphur fertilizers in sequential harvests of ryegrass: A stable isotope study. In G. Bañuelos, Z. Lin, D. Liang, & X. Yin (Eds.), Selenium Research for Environment and Human Health: Perspectives, Technologies and Advancements - Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Selenium in the Environment and Human Health, 2019 (57-58). https://doi.org/10.1201/9780429423482-27

The demand for sulphur (S) fertilizers has increased due to declining S emissions from coal burning and subsequent deposition on agricultural land. Slow-release S may only be beneficial for grass Selenium (Se) status initially and less beneficial for...

HAWAIIAN SKIRT, and F-box gene from Arabidopsis, is a new player in the microRNA pathway (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Zhang, X., Jayaweera, D., Peters, J. L., Szecsi, J., Bendahmane, M., Roberts, J. A., & González-Carranza, Z. H. (2018). HAWAIIAN SKIRT, and F-box gene from Arabidopsis, is a new player in the microRNA pathway.

F-box proteins belong to a multi-protein E3 ubiquitin ligase complex (SCF) that target proteins for degradation via the proteasome.We demonstrated that HAWAIIAN SKIRT(HWS), an Arabidopsis ubiquitin protein ligase (SCFHWS), regulates organ growth, flo...

Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Xu, L., Towey, D., French, A. P., Benford, S., Zhou, Z. Q., & Chen, T. Y. (2018). Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations. In MET '18: Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Metamorphic Testing (46-53). https://doi.org/10.1145/3193977.3193978

We report on a novel use of metamorphic relations (MRs) in machine learning: instead of conducting metamorphic testing, we use MRs for the augmentation of the machine learning algorithms themselves. In particular, we report on how MRs can enable enha... Read More about Enhancing supervised classifications with metamorphic relations.
