Live archives: freedom of information requests as political methodology
(Wiley, 2024-04-17)Freedom of information requests are an important research tool yet receive comparably little methodological scrutiny relative to other methods commonly used by geographers. This article considers two methodological aspects ... -
PyShoreVolume 1.0.0: A Python based Shoreline Change and beach Volumetric Change Analysis tool
(Elsevier, 2024-04-04)Shoreline Change Analysis (SCA) and Volumetric Change Analysis (VCA) are of growing importance to coastal managers throughout the world. The volume, resolution and accuracy of shoreline configurations are gradually improving, ... -
Psychosis prevalence in London neighbourhoods; A case study in spatial confounding.
(Elsevier, 2023-12-13)Analysis of impacts of neighbourhood risk factors on mental health outcomes frequently adopts a disease mapping approach, with unknown neighbourhood influences summarised by random effects. However, such effects may show ... -
A Model for Highly Fluctuating Spatio-Temporal Infection Data, with Applications to the COVID Epidemic
(MDPI, 2022-05-30)Spatio-temporal models need to address specific features of spatio-temporal infection data, such as periods of stable infection levels (endemicity), followed by epidemic phases, as well as infection spread from neighbouring ... -
Neighbourhood Health Inequalities between Ethnic Groups in England: An Application of Ecological Inference
(Springer, 2024-02-17)Ecological inference has had primarily political science applications, but this study considers an application to assess variations in neighbourhood mental health between population sub-groups. The methodology used has ... -
COVID-19 Mortality in English Neighborhoods: The Relative Role of Socioeconomic and Environmental Factors
(MDPI, 2021-05-14)Factors underlying neighborhood variation in COVID-19 mortality are important to assess in order to prioritize resourcing and policy intervention. As well as characteristics of area populations, such as health status and ... -
Values-Based Scenarios of Water Security: Rights to Water, Rights of Waters, and Commercial Water Rights

Satellite remote sensing can provide semi-automated monitoring to aid coastal decision-making
(Elsevier, 2024-01-14)Coastlines are projected to face unprecedented pressures over the next century due to climate change-induced changes in sea level, storm, wave, and tidal regimes. This projection of increasing pressure is driving a reappraisal ... -
The blue carbon of southern southwest Atlantic salt marshes and their biotic and abiotic drivers.
(Nature Research, 2023-12-22)Coastal vegetated ecosystems are acknowledged for their capacity to sequester organic carbon (OC), known as blue C. Yet, blue C global accounting is incomplete, with major gaps in southern hemisphere data. It also shows a ... -
Synergistic use of Sentinel-2 and UAV-derived data for plant fractional cover distribution mapping of coastal meadows with digital elevation models
(European Geosciences Union, 2024-03-19)Coastal wetlands provide a range of ecosystem services, yet they are currently under threat from global change impacts. Thus, their monitoring and assessment is vital for evaluating their status, extent and distribution. ... -
Race, Ethnicity, and the Case for Intersectional Water Security
(MIT Press, 2023-05-01)This Forum article reports on a meta-review of more than 19,000 published works on water security, of which less than 1 percent explicitly focus on race or ethnicity. This is deeply concerning, because it indicates that ... -
Glacial Deaths, Geologic Extinction
(Duke University Press, 2021-11-01)In 2019 several funerals were held for glaciers. If enough glaciers die, could they go extinct? Is there geologic extinction? Yes. This article develops three arguments to support this claim. The first revisits Georges ... -

(2024-01-01)This article demonstrates how tech professionals commuting to neighbourhoods redeveloped for their work are contributing to their transformation into urban tech campuses: gentrified districts where landscapes, understandings ... -
The role of rewilding in mitigating hydrological extremes: State of the evidence
(2024-01-01)Landscape rewilding has the potential to help mitigate hydrological extremes by allowing natural processes to function. Our systematic review assessed the evidence base for rewilding-driven mitigation of high and low flows. ... -
The association between county-level mental health provider shortage areas and suicide rates in the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic.
(2024-02-24)OBJECTIVE: Prior literature has shown that mental health provider Health Professional Shortage Areas (MHPSAs) experienced a greater increase in suicide rates compared to non-shortage areas from 2010 to 2018. Although suicide ... -
Biogeomorphological response to river restoration of a suburban river with large wood: creating a restoration vision and cost-effectively monitoring the response trajectory using the citizen science MoRPh survey
(2024-03-17)Biogeomorphological responses to river restoration are rarely reported. Despite a transition in the emphasis and priorities of river management over the last 40 years from controlling river channel forms and processes to ... -
A multi-scale analysis and classification of the hydrogeomorphological characteristics of Irish headwater streams
(2023-09-01)We present a spatially hierarchical, hydrogeomorphological stream classification, based on data collected in Ireland and reflecting our hypothesis that local (site scale) stream physical habitat characteristics are related ...
