Increasing wellbeing through energy demand reduction for net zero: Citizen perceptions of co-benefits of local measures (2024)
Journal Article
Mininni, G. M., Foxon, T. J., Copeland, C., Martinez, B. A., Brown, D., Brisbois, M. C., Torres Contreras, G. A., Stack-Maddox, S., Lacey-Barnacle, M., & Jaccarini, C. (2024). Increasing wellbeing through energy demand reduction for net zero: Citizen perceptions of co-benefits of local measures. Energy Research and Social Science, 118, Article 103799. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.erss.2024.103799

Energy demand reduction options can make an important contribution to a Net Zero transition for climate change mitigation, and also offer multiple social, economic, and environmental ‘co-benefits’. However, these co-benefits are often insufficiently... Read More about Increasing wellbeing through energy demand reduction for net zero: Citizen perceptions of co-benefits of local measures.

Mitigating the impact of air pollution on brain health and dementia: Policy and practice brief (2023)
Other
Ziyachi, M., Castellani, B., Heckels, N., Clarke, C., Fullertonf, N., Barbrook-Johnson, P., & Bicketc, M. (2023). Mitigating the impact of air pollution on brain health and dementia: Policy and practice brief. [https://www.art-sciencefactory.com/InSPIREPolicyBrief.pdf]

Emerging research suggests exposure to high levels of air pollution at critical points in the life course is detrimental to brain health, including cognitive decline and dementia. Social determinants such as socio-economic deprivation, environmental... Read More about Mitigating the impact of air pollution on brain health and dementia: Policy and practice brief.

The Feral Animal Question: Implications for Recognizing Europe's First Farmers (2023)
Journal Article
Gron, K. J. (online). The Feral Animal Question: Implications for Recognizing Europe's First Farmers. European Journal of Archaeology, 26(4), 410 - 425. https://doi.org/10.1017/eaa.2023.14

The presence of domestic animals is a key feature of the Neolithic. Their earliest presence in archaeological contexts across the European continent is often interpreted as reflecting farming practices. However, domestic animals often escape, survive...

X-ray Diffraction Topography (Imaging) of Crystals Grown from Solution: A Short Review (2023)
Journal Article
Tanner, B. K. (2023). X-ray Diffraction Topography (Imaging) of Crystals Grown from Solution: A Short Review. Crystal Growth and Design, 23(4), 3026-3033. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.cgd.2c01463

A short review of X-ray topographic studies of crystals grown from solution is presented. The dislocation configurations characteristic of such crystals are described, and Klapper’s explanation in terms of minimization of the elastic energy of a disl...

Sex and Gender in the Mesolithic: Adults and Children from the Strøby Egede Burial, Køge Bugt, Denmark (2022)
Journal Article
Gron, K. J., Meiklejohn, C., Pedersen, K. B., Stewart, N. A., Alexandersen, V., Sørensen, L., & Montgomery, J. (2022). Sex and Gender in the Mesolithic: Adults and Children from the Strøby Egede Burial, Køge Bugt, Denmark. Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society, 88, 1-23. https://doi.org/10.1017/ppr.2022.7

In the summer of 1986 a mass grave was discovered along the bank of the river Tryggevælde Å where it empties into Køge Bugt, the bay south of modern Copenhagen, Denmark. The human remains, dating to the late Mesolithic Ertebølle culture, consisted of...

X-ray diffraction imaging of fully packaged n–p–n transistors under accelerated ageing conditions (2022)
Journal Article
Tanner, B. K., Danilewsky, A., & McNally, P. J. (2022). X-ray diffraction imaging of fully packaged n–p–n transistors under accelerated ageing conditions. Journal of Applied Crystallography, 55(5), 1139-1146. https://doi.org/10.1107/s1600576722007142

X-ray diffraction imaging was used to monitor the local strains that developed around individual n–p–n bipolar transistors within fully encapsulated packages under conditions of extremely high forward bias to simulate accelerated ageing. Die warpage... Read More about X-ray diffraction imaging of fully packaged n–p–n transistors under accelerated ageing conditions.

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 23(6), Article 2957. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms23062957

Mechanical loading exerts a profound influence on bone density and architecture, but the exact mechanism is unknown. Our study shows that expression of the neurological transcriptional factor zinc finger of the cerebellum 1 (ZIC1) is markedly increas...

A Marvellous Sign and A Fiery Globe: A Medieval English Report of Ball Lightning (2022)
Journal Article
Gasper, G. E., & Tanner, B. K. (2022). A Marvellous Sign and A Fiery Globe: A Medieval English Report of Ball Lightning. Weather, 77(7), 232-234. https://doi.org/10.1002/wea.4144

We describe an entry in a twelfth century monastic chronicle, compiled and composed by Gervase of Canterbury (c. 1145–c. 1210), which gives a credible description of ball lightning. It predates the earliest known report of the phenomenon from England... Read More about A Marvellous Sign and A Fiery Globe: A Medieval English Report of Ball Lightning.

Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, 40(Part B), Article 103240. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jasrep.2021.103240

Vertical transhumance is historically known as an animal management practice in the Mediterranean that mitigates the risk of overgrazing and unpalatable pastures. It has long been debated whether the practice developed together with the spread of the... Read More about Transhumance in the Early Neolithic?
