Selenium Deficiency Is Widespread and Spatially Dependent in Ethiopia (2020)
Journal Article
Belay, A., Joy, E. J., Chagumaira, C., Zerfu, D., Ander, E. L., Young, S. D., Bailey, E. H., Lark, R. M., Broadley, M. R., & Gashu, D. (2020). Selenium Deficiency Is Widespread and Spatially Dependent in Ethiopia. Nutrients, 12(6), Article 1565. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu12061565

: Selenium (Se) is an essential element for human health and livestock productivity. Globally, human Se status is highly variable, mainly due to the influence of soil types on the Se content of crops, suggesting the need to identify areas of deficien...

Spatial prediction of the concentration of selenium (Se) in grain across part of Amhara Region, Ethiopia (2020)
Journal Article
Gashu, D., Lark, R., Milne, A., Amede, T., Bailey, E., Chagumaira, C., Dunham, S., Gameda, S., Kumssa, D., Mossa, A., Walsh, M., Wilson, L., Young, S., Ander, E., Broadley, M., Joy, E., & McGrath, S. (2020). Spatial prediction of the concentration of selenium (Se) in grain across part of Amhara Region, Ethiopia. Science of the Total Environment, 733, Article 139231. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.139231

Grain and soil were sampled across a large part of Amhara, Ethiopia in a study motivated by prior evidence of selenium (Se) deficiency in the Region's population. The grain samples (teff, Eragrostis tef, and wheat, Triticum aestivum) were analysed fo...

Short-Term Iodine Dynamics in Soil Solution (2020)
Journal Article
Humphrey, O. S., Young, S. D., Crout, N. M., Bailey, E. H., Ander, E. L., & Watts, M. J. (2020). Short-Term Iodine Dynamics in Soil Solution. Environmental Science and Technology, 54(3), 1443-1450. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.9b02296

Assessing the reactions of iodine (I) in soil is critical to evaluate radioiodine exposure and understand soil-to-crop transfer rates. Our mechanistic understanding has been constrained by method limitations in assessing the dynamic interactions of i... Read More about Short-Term Iodine Dynamics in Soil Solution.
