Exploring the Efficacy of Nile Red in Microplastic Quantification: A Costaining Approach (2019)
Journal Article
Stanton, T., Johnson, M., Nathanail, P., Gomes, R., Needham, T., & Burson, A. (2019). Exploring the Efficacy of Nile Red in Microplastic Quantification: A Costaining Approach. Environmental Science and Technology Letters, 6(10), 606-611. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.estlett.9b00499

The presence of microplastic particles ([less than]5 mm) in the environment has generated considerable concern across public, political, and scientific platforms. However, the diversity of microplastics that persist in the environment poses complex a... Read More about Exploring the Efficacy of Nile Red in Microplastic Quantification: A Costaining Approach.

Biomic river restoration: A new focus for river management (2019)
Journal Article
Johnson, M. F., Thorne, C. R., Castro, J. M., Mathias Kondolf, G., Mazzacano, C. S., Rood, S. B., & Westbrook, C. (2020). Biomic river restoration: A new focus for river management. River Research and Applications, 36(1), 3-12. https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3529

River management based solely on physical science has proven to be unsustainable and unsuccessful, evidenced by the fact that the problems this approach intended to solve (e.g., flood hazards, water scarcity, and channel instability) have not been so...

Macroinvertebrate community structure as an indicator of phosphorus enrichment in rivers (2019)
Journal Article
EVERALL, N., JOHNSON, M., WOOD, P., PAISLEY, M., TRIGG, D., & FARMER, A. (2019). Macroinvertebrate community structure as an indicator of phosphorus enrichment in rivers. Ecological Indicators, 107, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolind.2019.105619

Nutrient enrichment represents one of the most important causes of detriment to river ecosystem health globally. Monitoring nutrient inputs can be particularly challenging given the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of nitrogen and phosphorus concen...

The impact of biological bedforms on near-bed and subsurface flow: a laboratory evaluated numerical study of flow in the vicinity of pits and mounds (2019)
Journal Article
Han, X., Fang, H., Johnson, M., & Rice, S. (2019). The impact of biological bedforms on near-bed and subsurface flow: a laboratory evaluated numerical study of flow in the vicinity of pits and mounds. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 124(7), 1939-1957. https://doi.org/10.1029/2019JF005000

The complex surface topography of river substrates controls near-bed hydraulics and drives the exchange of subsurface and surface flow. In rivers, the topographic structures that are studied are usually formed by the flow but, it is known that many a...

The zoogeomorphology of case?building caddisfly: Quantifying sediment use (2019)
Journal Article
Mason, R. J., Rice, S. P., Wood, P. J., & Johnson, M. F. (2019). The zoogeomorphology of case?building caddisfly: Quantifying sediment use. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 44(12), 2510-2525. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.4670

Caddisfly (Trichoptera) larvae are an abundant and widespread aquatic insect group characterised by the construction of silk structures, including nets and cases. Case‐building caddisfly have the potential to modify the sorting and mobility of sand a... Read More about The zoogeomorphology of case?building caddisfly: Quantifying sediment use.

Freshwater and airborne textile fibre populations are dominated by ‘natural’, not microplastic, fibres (2019)
Journal Article
Stanton, T., Johnson, M., Nathanail, P., MacNaughtan, W., & Gomes, R. L. (2019). Freshwater and airborne textile fibre populations are dominated by ‘natural’, not microplastic, fibres. Science of the Total Environment, 666, 377-389. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.02.278

The potential role of natural textile fibres as environmental pollutants has been speculated upon by some environmental scientists, however, there is a general consensus that their biodegradability reduces their environmental threat. Whilst the risks... Read More about Freshwater and airborne textile fibre populations are dominated by ‘natural’, not microplastic, fibres.
