Carbon budget for a British upland peat catchment (2003)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Reed, M., Warburton, J., & Burt, T. (2003). Carbon budget for a British upland peat catchment. Science of the Total Environment, 312(1-3), 133-146. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0048-9697%2803%2900226-2

This study describes the analysis of fluvial carbon flux from an upland peat catchment in the North Pennines. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC), pH, alkalinity and calcium were measured in weekly samples, with particulate organic carbon (POC) measured f...

Changes in stream nitrate concentrations due to land management practices, ecological succession, and climate: Developing a systems approach to integrated catchment response (2003)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Swank, W., & Burt, T. (2003). Changes in stream nitrate concentrations due to land management practices, ecological succession, and climate: Developing a systems approach to integrated catchment response. Hydrological Processes, 39(7), 1-14

[1] This study uses time series analysis to examine long-term stream water nitrate concentration records from a pair of forested catchments at the Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory, North Carolina, USA. Monthly average concentrations were available from...

Long term records of riverine dissolved organic carbon (2003)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Burt, T., & Shedden, R. (2003). Long term records of riverine dissolved organic carbon. Biogeochemistry, 64(2), 165-178. https://doi.org/10.1023/a%3A1024924216148

This presents the longest, consistent records of dissolved organic carbon in rivers ever published. This study presents long-term records of organic matter as indicated by water colour that were constructed for three catchments in Northern England fo...

Hydrological studies on blanket peat: the significance of the acrotelm-catotelm model (2003)
Journal Article
Holden, J., & Burt, T. (2003). Hydrological studies on blanket peat: the significance of the acrotelm-catotelm model. Journal of Ecology, 91(1), 86-102. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-2745.2003.00748.x

1 Runoff production in blanket peat catchments of the northern Pennine hills, UK was measured through monitoring and experimentation at the plot, hillslope and catchment scale. Water flow from soil pipes was measured in one of the study catchments an... Read More about Hydrological studies on blanket peat: the significance of the acrotelm-catotelm model.

Release of dissolved organic carbon from upland peat (2002)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Burt, T., Jaeban, R., Warburton, J., & Shedden, R. (2002). Release of dissolved organic carbon from upland peat. Hydrological Processes, 16(17), 3487-3504. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.1111

This study examines the release of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from upland peat during the period of the autumn flushing. Hydroclimatic conditions were monitored in conjunction with measurements of absorbance and the E4/E6 ratio of the stream drai... Read More about Release of dissolved organic carbon from upland peat.

Water table fluctuations in the riparian zone: comparative results from a pan-European experiment (2002)
Journal Article
Burt, T., Pinay, G., Matheson, F., Haycock, N., Butturini, A., Clement, J., …Maitre, V. (2002). Water table fluctuations in the riparian zone: comparative results from a pan-European experiment. Journal of Hydrology, 265(1-4), 129-148. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0022-1694%2802%2900102-6

Soil saturation is known to be of crucial importance to denitrification and other nitrogen cycling processes within the riparian zone. Since denitrification potential generally increases towards the soil surface, water table elevation can control the...
