Nitrogen isotope variability of macroalgae from a small fishing village, Staithes Harbour, Yorkshire, UK. (2024)
Journal Article
Alldred, F. C., Gröcke, D. R., & Jackson, S. E. (2024). Nitrogen isotope variability of macroalgae from a small fishing village, Staithes Harbour, Yorkshire, UK. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 207, Article 116828. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2024.116828

Macroalgal nitrogen isotope analysis (δ N) is a reliable method for the identification of nitrogen pollutant sources. Understanding δ N geospatial variation within small bays and/or harbour environments can help identify point sources of nitrogen pol...

Further investigation into the impact of manuring on stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen isotope (δ15N) values in pulses: a four-year experiment examining Celtic bean (Vicia faba) (2024)
Journal Article
Treasure, E. R., Gröcke, D. R., Lester, J. J., Bishop, R. R., Jackson, S. E., & Church, M. J. (2024). Further investigation into the impact of manuring on stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen isotope (δ15N) values in pulses: a four-year experiment examining Celtic bean (Vicia faba). Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 16(8), Article 130. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12520-024-02045-x

Plant stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values can be used to directly investigate crop husbandry practices such as manuring; a key variable in understanding the scale and intensity of past farming practices. We present new results fro...

Nitrogen isotopes in herbaria document historical nitrogen sewage pollution in the Mersey Estuary, England (2024)
Journal Article
Alldred, F. C., Gröcke, D. R., Jackson, S. E., & Reid, G. (2024). Nitrogen isotopes in herbaria document historical nitrogen sewage pollution in the Mersey Estuary, England. Environmental Science: Advances, 3(5), 676-685. https://doi.org/10.1039/D4VA00015C

A macroalgae (seaweed) herbarium nitrogen isotope (δ15N) record is produced for the River Mersey and Liverpool South Docks (England) between 1821 and 2018. A modern macroalgae δ15N record was also produced from September 2022. The herbaria δ15N recor...
