Carbon capture and storage is a transition technology from a past and present fuelled by coal, oil and gas and a planned future dominated by renewable energy sources. The technology involves the capture of carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel po... Read More about Passive, continuous monitoring of carbon dioxide geostorage using muon tomography.

The development of chemical language usage by “non-traditional” students: the interlanguage analogy (2018)
Journal Article
Rees, S., Kind, V., & Newton, D. (2018). The development of chemical language usage by “non-traditional” students: the interlanguage analogy. Research in Science Education, 51(2), 419-438. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11165-018-9801-0

Students commonly find specialist scientific language problematic. This study investigated developments in chemical language usage by six non-traditional students over the course of 1 to 4 years. The students participated in semi-structured interview... Read More about The development of chemical language usage by “non-traditional” students: the interlanguage analogy.
