Dynamic baselines for the detection of water quality impacts – the case of shale gas development (2021)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Davies, R. J., & Hart, A. (2021). Dynamic baselines for the detection of water quality impacts – the case of shale gas development. Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 23(8), 1116-1129. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0em00440e

There is a need for the development of effective baselines against which the water quality impacts of new developments can be assessed. The specific conductance of flowback water from shale gas operations is typically many times the specific conducta...

The need to integrate legacy nitrogen storage dynamics and time lags into policy and practice (2021)
Journal Article
Ascott, M. J., Gooddy, D. C., Fenton, O., Vero, S., Ward, R. S., Basu, N. B., …Surridge, B. W. (2021). The need to integrate legacy nitrogen storage dynamics and time lags into policy and practice. Science of the Total Environment, 781, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.146698

Increased fluxes of reactive nitrogen (Nr), often associated with N fertilizer use in agriculture, have resulted in negative environmental consequences, including eutrophication, which cost billions of dollars per year globally. To address this, best... Read More about The need to integrate legacy nitrogen storage dynamics and time lags into policy and practice.

A 50‐Year Record Of Nitrate Concentrations In The Slapton Ley Catchment, Devon, United Kingdom (2021)
Journal Article
Burt, T., Worrall, F., Howden, N., Jarvie, H., Pratt, A., & Hutchinson, T. (2021). A 50‐Year Record Of Nitrate Concentrations In The Slapton Ley Catchment, Devon, United Kingdom. Hydrological Processes, 35(1), Article e13955. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.13955

Slapton Ley, a coastal lake, is the largest natural body of fresh water in south‐west England. There was concern in the 1960s that the lake was becoming increasingly eutrophic. To quantify inputs of water, sediment and nutrients into the lake, Slapto... Read More about A 50‐Year Record Of Nitrate Concentrations In The Slapton Ley Catchment, Devon, United Kingdom.
