Compositional changes in soil water and runoff water following managed burning on a UK upland blanket bog (2010)
Journal Article
Clay, G., Worrall, F., & Fraser, E. (2010). Compositional changes in soil water and runoff water following managed burning on a UK upland blanket bog. Journal of Hydrology, 380(1-2), 135-145. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2009.10.030

This study examines the effect managed rotational burning has on soil water and runoff water compositions at the end of a 10 year burning cycle and into the year following a managed burn. This study includes aluminium, iron, calcium, sodium, magnesiu... Read More about Compositional changes in soil water and runoff water following managed burning on a UK upland blanket bog.

Hydrological responses to managed burning and grazing in an upland blanket bog (2009)
Journal Article
Clay, G., Worrall, F., Clark, E., & Fraser, E. (2009). Hydrological responses to managed burning and grazing in an upland blanket bog. Journal of Hydrology, 376(3-4), 486-495. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2009.07.055

The management of the UK uplands by rotational burning and grazing is a widespread practice that aims to control the development of vegetation in order to create suitable habitats for grouse and sheep. By modifying the above ground biomass it is poss... Read More about Hydrological responses to managed burning and grazing in an upland blanket bog.

Estimating a region's soil organic carbon baseline: The undervalued role of land-management (2009)
Journal Article
Bell, M., & Worrall, F. (2009). Estimating a region's soil organic carbon baseline: The undervalued role of land-management. Geoderma, 152(1-2), 74-84. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoderma.2009.05.020

In light of recent concern over the extent of global warming and the role of soil carbon as a potential store of atmospheric carbon, there is increasing pressure and demand for regions to estimate their current soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks with t...
