The role of tributary relative timing and sequencing in controlling large floods (2014)
Journal Article
Pattison, I., Lane, S., Hardy, R., & Reaney, S. (2014). The role of tributary relative timing and sequencing in controlling large floods. Water Resources Research, 50(7), 5444-5458. https://doi.org/10.1002/2013wr014067

Hydrograph convolution is a product of tributary inputs from across the watershed. The time-space distribution of precipitation, the biophysical processes that control the conversion of precipitation to runoff and channel flow conveyance processes, a...

Save (us from) the children: trauma, Palestinian childhood, and the production of governable subjects (2014)
Journal Article
Marshall, D. (2014). Save (us from) the children: trauma, Palestinian childhood, and the production of governable subjects. Children's Geographies, 12(3), 281-296. https://doi.org/10.1080/14733285.2014.922678

Since the Second Intifada, trauma relief has served as the primary justification for a range of international humanitarian aid projects targeting Palestinian children and youth. Such humanitarian aid projects presume that the default response to viol... Read More about Save (us from) the children: trauma, Palestinian childhood, and the production of governable subjects.

Sources and transport of nitrogen in arid urban watersheds (2014)
Journal Article
Hale, R., Turnbull, L., Earl, S., Grimm, N., Riha, K., Michalski, G., …Childers, D. (2014). Sources and transport of nitrogen in arid urban watersheds. Environmental Science and Technology, 48(11), 6211-6219. https://doi.org/10.1021/es501039t

Urban watersheds are often sources of nitrogen (N) to downstream systems, contributing to poor water quality. However, it is unknown which components (e.g., land cover and stormwater infrastructure type) of urban watersheds contribute to N export and...

Biotic mechanisms of community stability shift along a precipitation gradient (2014)
Journal Article
Hallett, L., Hsu, J., Cleland, E., Collins, S., Dickson, T., Farrer, E., …Suding, K. (2014). Biotic mechanisms of community stability shift along a precipitation gradient. Ecology, 95(6), 1693-1700. https://doi.org/10.1890/13-0895.1

Understanding how biotic mechanisms confer stability in variable environments is a fundamental quest in ecology, and one that is becoming increasingly urgent with global change. Several mechanisms, notably a portfolio effect associated with species r... Read More about Biotic mechanisms of community stability shift along a precipitation gradient.

Quantifiable effectiveness of experimental scaling of river- and delta morphodynamics and stratigraphy (2014)
Journal Article
Kleinhans, M., Van Dijk, W., Van de Lageweg, W., Hoyal, D., Markies, H., Van Maarseveen, M., …Cheshier, N. (2014). Quantifiable effectiveness of experimental scaling of river- and delta morphodynamics and stratigraphy. Earth-Science Reviews, 133, 43-61. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2014.03.001

Laboratory experiments to simulate landscapes and stratigraphy often suffer from scale effects, because reducing length- and time scales leads to different behaviour of water and sediment. Classically, scaling proceeded from dimensional analysis of t... Read More about Quantifiable effectiveness of experimental scaling of river- and delta morphodynamics and stratigraphy.

The Randolph Glacier Inventory: a globally complete inventory of glaciers (2014)
Journal Article
Pfeffer, W. T., Arendt, A. A., Bliss, A., Bolch, T., Cogley, J. G., Gardner, A. S., …Wyatt, F. (2014). The Randolph Glacier Inventory: a globally complete inventory of glaciers. Journal of Glaciology, 60(221), 537-552. https://doi.org/10.3189/2014jog13j176

The Randolph Glacier Inventory (RGI) is a globally complete collection of digital outlines of glaciers, excluding the ice sheets, developed to meet the needs of the Fifth Assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for estimates of pa...

A balancing act? Work-life balance and health and wellbeing in European welfare states (2014)
Journal Article
Lunau, T., Bambra, C., Eikemo, T., van der Wel, K., & Dragano, N. (2014). A balancing act? Work-life balance and health and wellbeing in European welfare states. European Journal of Public Health, 24(3), 422-427. https://doi.org/10.1093/eurpub/cku010

Background: Recent analyses have shown that adverse psychosocial working conditions, such as job strain and effort–reward imbalance, vary by country and welfare state regimes. Another work-related factor with potential impact on health is a poor work... Read More about A balancing act? Work-life balance and health and wellbeing in European welfare states.

Retrofitting cities: Local governance in Sydney, Australia (2014)
Journal Article
Dowling, R., McGuirk, P., & Bulkeley, H. (2014). Retrofitting cities: Local governance in Sydney, Australia. Cities, 38, 18-24. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cities.2013.12.004

Transforming cities to a lower carbon future is one of the key challenges of contemporary urban governance. Retrofitting the city – or modifying existing urban infrastructures, buildings and daily life to suit different energy sources and different e...

North and South addressing the English health divide (2014)
Journal Article
Bambra, C., Barr, B., & Milne, E. (2014). North and South addressing the English health divide. Journal of Public Health, 36(2), 183-186. https://doi.org/10.1093/pubmed/fdu029

The North South divide in England has been a popular trope from the mid-19th century novels of Charles Dickens (Hard Times, 1854) and Elizabeth Gaskell (North and South, 1855) through to TV and radio documentaries of 2014.1,2 These often focus on cul...
