The effect of leaf-on and leaf-off forest canopy conditions on LiDAR derived estimations of forest structural diversity (2020)
Journal Article
Davison, S., Donoghue, D. N., & Galiatsatos, N. (2020). The effect of leaf-on and leaf-off forest canopy conditions on LiDAR derived estimations of forest structural diversity. International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 92, Article 102160. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.2020.102160

Forest structural diversity metrics describing diversity in tree size and crown shape within forest stands can be used as indicators of biodiversity. These diversity metrics can be generated using airborne laser scanning (LiDAR) data to provide a rap...

Mountains, erosion and the carbon cycle (2020)
Journal Article
Hilton, R., & West, A. (2020). Mountains, erosion and the carbon cycle. Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, 1(6), 284-299. https://doi.org/10.1038/s43017-020-0058-6

Mountain building results in high erosion rates and the interaction of rocks with the atmosphere, water and life. Carbon transfers that result from increased erosion could control the evolution of Earth’s long-term climate. For decades, attention has... Read More about Mountains, erosion and the carbon cycle.

Changing levels of local crime and mental health: a natural experiment using self-reported and service use data in Scotland (2020)
Journal Article
Baranyi, G., Cherrie, M., Curtis, S. E., Dibben, C., & Pearce, J. (2020). Changing levels of local crime and mental health: a natural experiment using self-reported and service use data in Scotland. Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, 74(10), 806-814. https://doi.org/10.1136/jech-2020-213837

Background: This study contributes robust evidence on the association between mental health and local crime rates by showing how changing exposure to small area-level crime relates to self-reported and administrative data on mental health. Methods: T... Read More about Changing levels of local crime and mental health: a natural experiment using self-reported and service use data in Scotland.

Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 283, 54-66. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2020.05.027

Benthic foraminifera Mg/Ca is a well-established bottom water temperature (BWT) proxy used in paleoclimate studies. The relationship between Mg/Ca and BWT for numerous species has been determined using core-top and culturing studies. However, the sca...

The paleoclimate community has an interest in distributed subglacial bedrock sampling but, while capable drill systems do exist, they are often incompatible with Twin Otter logistics. To address this issue, a design built on the existing low footprin... Read More about A low resource subglacial bedrock sampler: The percussive rapid access isotope drill (P-RAID).

Long-term patterns of hillslope erosion by earthquake-induced landslides shape mountain landscapes (2020)
