Channelization of the lowermost part of Vedder River in 1922 initiated a natural experiment relevant to the unresolved question of how abrupt gravel–sand transitions develop along rivers. The new channel (Vedder Canal) had a fine bed and a much lower... Read More about Evolution of an advancing gravel front: observations from Vedder Canal, British Columbia.

Care—concept, emotion, practice, politics, moral exhortation—is a starting point for a range of critical geographies. Care affords geographers a richness of possibilities through which to engage critically with a range of politically charged discours... Read More about Care of the body: spaces of practice.

The effects of health care reforms on health inequalities: a review and analysis of the European evidence base (2011)

Housing and health inequalities: a synthesis of systematic reviews of interventions aimed at different pathways linking housing and health (2011)
Journal Article
Gibson, M., Petticrew, M., Bambra, C., Sowden, A., Wright, K., & Whitehead, M. (2011).

Health & Place, 17(1), 175-184. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.healthplace.2010.09.011

Housing and neighbourhood conditions are widely acknowledged to be important social determinants of health, through three main pathways: (1) internal housing conditions, (2) area characteristics and (3) housing tenure. We conducted a systematic overv... Read More about Housing and health inequalities: a synthesis of systematic reviews of interventions aimed at different pathways linking housing and health.

Efficient transport of fossil organic carbon to the ocean by steep mountain rivers: An orogenic carbon sequestration mechanism (2011)
Journal Article
Hilton, R., Galy, A., Hovius, N., & Horng, M. (2011). Efficient transport of fossil organic carbon to the ocean by steep mountain rivers: An orogenic carbon sequestration mechanism. Geology, 39(1), 71-74. https://doi.org/10.1130/g31352.1

Mountain building exposes fossil organic carbon (OCfossil) in exhumed sedimentary rocks. Oxidation of this material releases carbon dioxide from long-term geological storage to the atmosphere. OCfossil is mobilized on hillslopes by mass wasting and t...

During the last 150 years, land degradation across the semi-arid grasslands of the south-western United States has been associated with an increase in runoff and erosion. Concurrent with this increase in runoff and erosion is a loss of nitrogen (N) a...
