Nitrogen isotope variability of macroalgae from a small fishing village, Staithes Harbour, Yorkshire, UK. (2024)
Journal Article
Alldred, F. C., Gröcke, D. R., & Jackson, S. E. (2024). Nitrogen isotope variability of macroalgae from a small fishing village, Staithes Harbour, Yorkshire, UK. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 207, Article 116828. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2024.116828

Macroalgal nitrogen isotope analysis (δ N) is a reliable method for the identification of nitrogen pollutant sources. Understanding δ N geospatial variation within small bays and/or harbour environments can help identify point sources of nitrogen pol...

Journal Article
Treasure, E. R., Gröcke, D. R., Lester, J. J., Bishop, R. R., Jackson, S. E., & Church, M. J. (2024). Further investigation into the impact of manuring on stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen isotope (δ15N) values in pulses: a four-year experiment examining Celtic bean (Vicia faba). Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 16(8), Article 130. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12520-024-02045-x

Plant stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values can be used to directly investigate crop husbandry practices such as manuring; a key variable in understanding the scale and intensity of past farming practices. We present new results fro...

Nitrogen isotopes in herbaria document historical nitrogen sewage pollution in the Mersey Estuary, England (2024)
Journal Article
Alldred, F. C., Gröcke, D. R., Jackson, S. E., & Reid, G. (2024). Nitrogen isotopes in herbaria document historical nitrogen sewage pollution in the Mersey Estuary, England. Environmental Science: Advances, 3(5), 676-685. https://doi.org/10.1039/D4VA00015C

A macroalgae (seaweed) herbarium nitrogen isotope (δ15N) record is produced for the River Mersey and Liverpool South Docks (England) between 1821 and 2018. A modern macroalgae δ15N record was also produced from September 2022. The herbaria δ15N recor...

Extremism, segregation and oscillatory states emerge through collective opinion dynamics in a novel agent-based model (2022)
Journal Article
Stokes, B., Jackson, S., Garnett, P., & Luo, J. (2024). Extremism, segregation and oscillatory states emerge through collective opinion dynamics in a novel agent-based model. The Journal of Mathematical Sociology, 48(1), 42-80. https://doi.org/10.1080/0022250X.2022.2124246

Using mathematics to model the evolution of opinions among interacting agents is a rich and growing field. We present a novel agent-based model that enhances the explanatory power of existing theoretical frameworks, corroborates experimental findings...

Efficient Emulation of Computer Models Utilising Multiple Known Boundaries of Differing Dimension (2022)
Journal Article
Jackson, S. E., & Vernon, I. (2023). Efficient Emulation of Computer Models Utilising Multiple Known Boundaries of Differing Dimension. Bayesian Analysis, 18(1), 165-191. https://doi.org/10.1214/22-ba1304

Emulation has been successfully applied across a wide variety of scientific disciplines for efficiently analysing computationally intensive models. We develop known boundary emulation strategies which utilise the fact that, for many computer models,...

Understanding hormonal crosstalk in Arabidopsis root development via emulation and history matching (2020)
Journal Article
Jackson, S., Vernon, I., Liu, J., & Lindsey, K. (2020). Understanding hormonal crosstalk in Arabidopsis root development via emulation and history matching. Statistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology, 19(2), Article 20180053. https://doi.org/10.1515/sagmb-2018-0053

A major challenge in plant developmental biology is to understand how plant growth is coordinated by interacting hormones and genes. To meet this challenge, it is important to not only use experimental data, but also formulate a mathematical model. F...

Known Boundary Emulation of Complex Computer Models (2019)
Journal Article
Vernon, I., Jackson, S., & Cumming, J. (2019). Known Boundary Emulation of Complex Computer Models. SIAM/ASA Journal on Uncertainty Quantification, 7(3), 838-876. https://doi.org/10.1137/18m1164457

Computer models are now widely used across a range of scientific disciplines to describe various complex physical systems, however to perform full uncertainty quantification we often need to employ emulators. An emulator is a fast statistical constru... Read More about Known Boundary Emulation of Complex Computer Models.

The correlation threshold as a strategy for gene filtering, with application to irritable bowel syndrome and breast cancer microarray data (2016)
Journal Article
Jackson, S. E., Einbeck, J., Kasim, A., & Talloen, W. (2016). The correlation threshold as a strategy for gene filtering, with application to irritable bowel syndrome and breast cancer microarray data. Reinvention, 9(2),

It is well established in the literature that certain disease-associated gene signatures can be identified as a source for predicting the classification of samples or cell lines into diagnostic groups – for example, healthy and diseased. Using standa... Read More about The correlation threshold as a strategy for gene filtering, with application to irritable bowel syndrome and breast cancer microarray data.
