Journal Article
Lane, R. A., Coxon, G., Freer, J. E., Wagener, T., Johnes, P. J., Bloomfield, J. P., …Reaney, S. M. (2019). Benchmarking the predictive capability of hydrological models for river flow and flood peak predictions across over 1000 catchments in Great Britain. Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 23(10), 4011-4032. https://doi.org/10.5194/hess-23-4011-2019

Benchmarking model performance across large samples of catchments is useful to guide model selection and future model development. Given uncertainties in the observational data we use to drive and evaluate hydrological models, and uncertainties in th...

Identifying critical source areas using multiple methods for effective diffuse pollution mitigation (2019)
Journal Article
Reaney, S., Mackay, E., Haygarth, P., Fisher, M., Molineux, A., Potts, M., & Benskin, C. M. (2019). Identifying critical source areas using multiple methods for effective diffuse pollution mitigation. Journal of Environmental Management, 250, Article 109366. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2019.109366

Diffuse pollution from agriculture constitutes a key pressure on the water quality of freshwaters and is frequently the cause of ecological degradation. The problem of diffuse pollution can be conceptualised with a source-mobilisation-pathway (or del...

Strong and recurring seasonality revealed within stream diatom assemblages (2019)
Journal Article
Snell, M., Barker, P., Surridge, B., Benskin, C. M. H., Barber, N., Reaney, S., …Haygarth, P. (2019). Strong and recurring seasonality revealed within stream diatom assemblages. Scientific Reports, 9(1), Article 3313. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-37831-w

Improving stream water quality in agricultural landscapes is an ecological priority and a legislative duty for many governments. Ecosystem health can be effectively characterised by organisms sensitive to water quality changes such as diatoms, single...

High resolution characterisation of E. coli proliferation profiles in livestock faeces (2019)
Journal Article
Porter, K. D., Quilliam, R. S., Reaney, S. M., & Oliver, D. M. (2019). High resolution characterisation of E. coli proliferation profiles in livestock faeces. Waste Management, 87, 537-545. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wasman.2019.02.037

Agricultural intensification can lead to high volumes of livestock faeces being applied to land, either as solid or liquid manures or via direct defecation, and can result in reservoirs of faecal indicator organisms (FIOs) persisting within farmland....
