Journal Article
Alexander Bentley, R., Buckley, H. R., Spriggs, M., Bedford, S., Ottley, C. J., Nowell, G. M., …Graham Pearson, D. (2007). LAPITA MIGRANTS IN THE PACIFIC’S OLDEST CEMETERY:ISOTOPIC ANALYSIS AT TEOUMA, VANUATU. American Antiquity, 72, 645-656

Teouma, an archaeological site on Efate Island, Vanuatu, features the earliest cemetery yet discovered of the colonizers of Remote Oceania, from the late second millennium B.C. In order to investigate potential migration of seventeen human individual... Read More about LAPITA MIGRANTS IN THE PACIFIC’S OLDEST CEMETERY:ISOTOPIC ANALYSIS AT TEOUMA, VANUATU.

A link between large mantle melting events and continent growth seen in osmium isotopes (2007)
Journal Article
Pearson, D., Parman, S., & Nowell, G. (2007). A link between large mantle melting events and continent growth seen in osmium isotopes. Nature, 449(7159), 202-205. https://doi.org/10.1038/nature06122

Although Earth's continental crust is thought to have been derived from the mantle, the timing and mode of crust formation have proven to be elusive issues. The area of preserved crust diminishes markedly with age, and this can be interpreted as bein...

Combining CSD and isotopic microanalysis: Magma supply and mixing processes at Stromboli Volcano, Aeolian Islands, Italy (2007)
Journal Article
Morgan, D., Jerram, D., Chertkoff, D., Davidson, J., Pearson, D., Kronz, A., & Nowell, G. (2007). Combining CSD and isotopic microanalysis: Magma supply and mixing processes at Stromboli Volcano, Aeolian Islands, Italy. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 260(3-4), 419-431. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2007.05.037

Integrating isotopic microanalysis with other analytical techniques creates powerful new methodologies for understanding the evolution of rock samples at the sub-grain scale. Here we present Crystal Size Distribution (CSD) data for a 26,000 year old...

Origin of CFB magmatism: Multi-tiered intracrustal picrite-rhyolite magmatic plumbing at Spitzkoppe, western Namibia, during early-Cretaceous Etendeka magmatism (2007)
Journal Article
Thompson, R., Riches, A., Antoshechkina, P., Pearson, D., Nowell, G., Ottley, C., …Niku-Paavola, V. (2007). Origin of CFB magmatism: Multi-tiered intracrustal picrite-rhyolite magmatic plumbing at Spitzkoppe, western Namibia, during early-Cretaceous Etendeka magmatism. Journal of Petrology, 48(6), 1119-1154. https://doi.org/10.1093/petrology/egm012

Early Cretaceous tholeiitic picrite-to-rhyolite dykes around Spitzkoppe, western Namibia, are part of the extensive Henties Bay–Outjo swarm, penecontemporaneous with 132 Ma Etendeka lavas 100 km to the NW. Although only intermediate to rhyolitic dyke...

Adaptive dosing and platinum-DNA adduct formation in children receiving high-dose carboplatin for the treatment of solid tumours (2007)
Journal Article
Veal, G., Errington, J., Tilby, M., Pearson, A., Foot, A., McDowell, H., …Boddy, A. (2007). Adaptive dosing and platinum-DNA adduct formation in children receiving high-dose carboplatin for the treatment of solid tumours. British Journal of Cancer, 96(5), 725-731. https://doi.org/10.1038/sj.bjc.6603607

A pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic study was carried out to investigate the feasibility and potential importance of therapeutic monitoring following high-dose carboplatin treatment in children. High-dose carboplatin was administered over 3 or 5 days,...
