Journal Article
Hamidi, M. D., Gröcke, D. R., Kumar Joshi, S., & Greenwell, H. C. (2023). Investigating groundwater recharge using hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes in Kabul city, a semi-arid region. Journal of Hydrology, 626, Article 130187. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2023.130187

There are significant concerns about the sustainability of groundwater, and the inhabitants that depend on it, due to rapid groundwater depletion from the alluvium aquifers in Kabul city. Sustainable groundwater management in Kabul requires an unders... Read More about Investigating groundwater recharge using hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes in Kabul city, a semi-arid region.

Translocation of isotopically distinct macroalgae: a route to low-cost biomonitoring? (2017)
Journal Article
Gröcke, D., Racionero-Gómez, B., Marschalek, J., & Greenwell, H. (2017). Translocation of isotopically distinct macroalgae: a route to low-cost biomonitoring?. Chemosphere, 184, 1175-1185. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2017.06.082

Nitrogen stable isotope ratios (δ15N) in macroalgae are often used to identify sources of nitrogenous pollution in fluvial and estuarine settings. This approach assumes that the macroalgal δ15N is representative of the sources of the pollution averag...

Osmium uptake, distribution, and 187Os/188Os and 187Re/188Os compositions in Phaeophyceae macroalgae, Fucus vesiculosus: Implications for determining the 187Os/188Os composition of seawater (2016)
Journal Article
Racionero-Gómez, B., Sproson, A., Selby, D., Gannoun, A., Gröcke, D., Greenwell, H., & Burton, K. (2016). Osmium uptake, distribution, and 187Os/188Os and 187Re/188Os compositions in Phaeophyceae macroalgae, Fucus vesiculosus: Implications for determining the 187Os/188Os composition of seawater. Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 199, 48-57. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2016.11.033

The osmium isotopic composition (187Os/188Os) of seawater reflects the balance of input from mantle-, continental- and anthropogenic-derived sources. This study utilizes the Phaeophyceae, Fucus vesiculosus, to analyse its Os abundance and uptake, as...

Rhenium uptake and distribution in phaeophyceae macroalgae, Fucus vesiculosus (2016)
Journal Article
Racionero-Gómez, B., Sproson, A., Selby, D., Gröcke, D., Redden, H., & Greenwell, H. (2016). Rhenium uptake and distribution in phaeophyceae macroalgae, Fucus vesiculosus. Royal Society Open Science, 3(5), Article 160161. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.160161

Owing to Rhenium (Re) having no known biological role, it is not fully understood how Re is concentrated in oil kerogens. A commonly held assumption is that Re is incorporated into decomposing biomass under reducing conditions. However, living macroa...

Geochemical and lithological controls on a potential shale reservoir: Carboniferous Holywell Shale, Wales (2015)
Journal Article
Newport, L. P., Aplin, A. C., Gluyas, J. G., Greenwell, H. C., & Gröcke, D. R. (2015). Geochemical and lithological controls on a potential shale reservoir: Carboniferous Holywell Shale, Wales. Marine and Petroleum Geology, 71, 198-210. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2015.11.026

The Holywell Shale is part of the Carboniferous Bowland Shale Formation, identified as the main potential shale gas system in the UK. Here, we report geochemical and petrographic data from five outcrops of the Lower and Upper Holywell Shale across no...

The effect of interbedding on shale reservoir properties (2015)
Journal Article
Raji, M., Gröcke, D., Greenwell, H., Gluyas, J., & Cornford, C. (2015). The effect of interbedding on shale reservoir properties. Marine and Petroleum Geology, 67, 154-169. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2015.04.015

North Sea oil is overwhelmingly generated in shales of the Upper Jurassic – basal Cretaceous Kimmeridge Clay Formation. Once generated, the oil is expelled and ultimately migrates to accumulate in sandstone or carbonate reservoirs. The source rock sh...
