Patterns of precursory rockfall prior to slope failure (2007)
Journal Article
Rosser, N., Lim, M., Petley, D., Dunning, S., & Allison, R. (2007). Patterns of precursory rockfall prior to slope failure. Journal of Geophysical Research, 112(F4), https://doi.org/10.1029/2006jf000642

In this paper we examine data generated using high-resolution three-dimensional laser scanning monitoring of coastal rock cliffs. These data are used to identify spatial and temporal patterns in rockfall activity behavior prior to slope failure. Anal... Read More about Patterns of precursory rockfall prior to slope failure.

The use of agent based modelling techniques in hydrology: determining the spatial and temporal origin of channel flow in semi-arid catchments (2007)
Journal Article
Reaney, S. (2008). The use of agent based modelling techniques in hydrology: determining the spatial and temporal origin of channel flow in semi-arid catchments. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 33(2), 317-327. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1540

Information on the spatial and temporal origin of runoff entering the channel during a storm event would be valuable in understanding the physical dynamics of catchment hydrology; this knowledge could be used to help design flood defences and diffuse...

Este trabajo analiza críticamente diversas representaciones literarias y visuales de los espacios insulares en relación con las construcciones de género en Cuba y las Islas Canarias en los años veinte y treinta. El ensayo parte de la coincidencia his... Read More about Géneros y vanguardias insulares: Canarias y Cuba en el límite de dos repúblicas..

Co-ordinated environmental regulation: Controlling non-point nitrate pollution while maintaining river flows (2007)
Journal Article
Aftab, A., Hanley, N., & Kampas, A. (2007). Co-ordinated environmental regulation: Controlling non-point nitrate pollution while maintaining river flows. Environmental and Resource Economics, 38(4), 573-593. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10640-007-9090-y

Environmental policy often addresses multiple targets, yet much economic analysis of pollution control is based on a single-target objective. In this paper, we present an analysis of policies to control non-point source nitrate pollution in the prese...

Use of the connectivity of runoff model (CRUM) to investigate the influence of storm characteristics on runoff generation and connectivity in semi-arid areas (2007)
Journal Article
Reaney, S., Bracken, L., & Kirkby, M. (2007). Use of the connectivity of runoff model (CRUM) to investigate the influence of storm characteristics on runoff generation and connectivity in semi-arid areas. Hydrological Processes, 21(7), 894-906. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.6281

Much attention has been given to the surface controls on the generation and transmission of runoff in semi-arid areas. However, the surface controls form only one part of the system; hence, it is important to consider the effect that the characterist...

Grain-size analysis of volcanic ash for the rapid assessment of respiratory health hazard (2007)
Journal Article
Horwell, C. (2007). Grain-size analysis of volcanic ash for the rapid assessment of respiratory health hazard. Journal of environmental monitoring, 9, 1107-1115. https://doi.org/10.1039/b710583p

Volcanic ash has the potential to cause acute and chronic respiratory diseases if the particles are sufficiently fine to enter the respiratory system. Characterization of the grain-size distribution (GSD) of volcanic ash is, therefore, a critical fir...
