Assessment of Groundwater Aquifer Impact from Artificial Lagoons and the Reuse of Wastewater in Qatar (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Al-Jabiry, H., Young, S. D., & Bailey, E. H. (2022). Assessment of Groundwater Aquifer Impact from Artificial Lagoons and the Reuse of Wastewater in Qatar. In Sustainable Energy-Water-Environment Nexus in Deserts: Proceeding of the First International Conference on Sustainable Energy-Water-Environment Nexus in Desert Climates (13-23). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-76081-6_2

Qatar relies on groundwater for farming activities. Animal fodder crops are irrigated during summer, and different types of vegetables are grown in winter. Qatar has been using lagoons in different parts of the country to dispose of treated wastewate...

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...

Effects of cover crops on phosphatase activity in a clay arable soil in the UK (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Reynolds, S., Ritz, K., Crotty, F., Stoate, C., West, H., & Neal, A. L. (2017). Effects of cover crops on phosphatase activity in a clay arable soil in the UK. In Sustainable intensification at Rothamsted Research, Harpenden, Herts UK on 28-30 November 2017 (215-220)

The effect of five cover crop species (radish, buckwheat, vetch, phacelia and oat) alongside an un-cropped control, on the activity and persistence of soil acid and alkaline phosphatase activity was investigated. There was no effect on alkaline phosp... Read More about Effects of cover crops on phosphatase activity in a clay arable soil in the UK.
