A 6,000-year record of environmental change from the eastern Pacific margin of central Mexico (2018)
Journal Article
Davies, S. J., Metcalfe, S. E., Aston, B. J., Byrne, A. R., Champagne, M. R., Jones, M. D., …Noren, A. (2018). A 6,000-year record of environmental change from the eastern Pacific margin of central Mexico. Quaternary Science Reviews, 202, 211-224. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.11.008

The transition from the mid- to late-Holocene in MesoAmerica saw increasing complexity in spatial patterns of change. Records from the western part of the region are sparse, with lacustrine sequences affected by long term anthropogenic disturbance or...

Global-scale proxy system modeling of oxygen isotopes in lacustrine carbonates: 2 new insights from isotope-enabled-model proxy-data comparison (2018)
Journal Article
Jones, M. D., & Dee, S. G. (2018). Global-scale proxy system modeling of oxygen isotopes in lacustrine carbonates: 2 new insights from isotope-enabled-model proxy-data comparison. Quaternary Science Reviews, 202, 19-29. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.09.009

Proxy System Modelling (PSM) is now recognised as a crucial step in comparing climate model output with proxy records of past environmental change. PSMs filter the climate signal from the model, or from meteorological data, based on the physical, che...

A dynamic, modifiable model for estimating cost-effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions in pregnancy: application to an RCT of self-help delivered by text message (2018)
Journal Article
Jones, M., Smith, M., Lewis, S., Parrott, S., & Coleman, T. (2019). A dynamic, modifiable model for estimating cost-effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions in pregnancy: application to an RCT of self-help delivered by text message. Addiction, 114(2), 353-365. https://doi.org/10.1111/add.14476

Background/Aims: Previous evaluations of smoking cessation interventions in pregnancy have several limitations. Our solution to these limitations is the Economics of Smoking in Pregnancy (ESIP) model which estimates the lifetime cost-effectiveness of...

Quantitative reconstruction of early Holocene ad last glacial climate on the Balkan Peninsula using coupled hydrlogical and isotope mass balance modelling (2018)
Journal Article
Lacey, J. H., & Jones, M. D. (2018). Quantitative reconstruction of early Holocene ad last glacial climate on the Balkan Peninsula using coupled hydrlogical and isotope mass balance modelling. Quaternary Science Reviews, 202, 109-121. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2018.09.007

We investigate the modern hydrology of Lake Ohrid (Macedonia/Albania) using a combined hydrological and isotope-based modelling approach and present a new evaluation of contemporary water balance and palaeoclimate estimates. The combined model is ab...

Climate models currently provide conflicting predictions of future climate change across Central Asia. With concern over the potential for a change in water availability to impact communities and ecosystems across the region, an understanding of hist...

Uptake of Tailored Text Message Smoking Cessation Support in Pregnancy When Advertised on the Internet (MiQuit): Observational Study (2018)
Journal Article
Emery, J., Coleman, T., Sutton, S., Cooper, S., Leonardi-Bee, J., Jones, M. D., & Naughton, F. (2018). Uptake of Tailored Text Message Smoking Cessation Support in Pregnancy When Advertised on the Internet (MiQuit): Observational Study. Journal of Medical Internet Research, 20(4), Article e146. https://doi.org/10.2196/jmir.8525

Background: Smoking in pregnancy is a major public health concern. Pregnant smokers are particularly difficult to reach, with low uptake of support options and few effective interventions. Text message–based self-help is a promising, low-cost interve...

Systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the safety of Buproprion and Varenicline in pregnancy (2018)
Journal Article
Turner, E., Coleman, T., Jones, M., & Vaz, L. (2018). Systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the safety of Buproprion and Varenicline in pregnancy. Nicotine and Tobacco Research, 21(8), 1001–1010. https://doi.org/10.1093/ntr/nty055

Introduction: Smoking in pregnancy is a substantial public health issue, but, apart from nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), pharmacological therapies are not generally used to promote cessation. Bupropion and varenicline are effective cessation meth... Read More about Systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the safety of Buproprion and Varenicline in pregnancy.

Estimating the healthcare costs of children born to pregnant smokers in England: cohort study using primary and secondary healthcare data (2018)
Journal Article
