AI-assisted interpretation of changes in riparian woodland from archival aerial imagery using Meta's segment anything model
(2024-01-01)An implementation of Meta's 2023 foundation artificial intelligence model, Segment Anything (SAM) is tested and used to assist in mapping changes in the extent of riparian woodland using publicly available archival aerial ... -
A fast approach for analyzing spatio-temporal patterns in ischemic heart disease mortality across US counties (1999–2021)
(Elsevier, 2024-11)Ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains the primary cause of mortality in the US. This study focuses on using spatio-temporal disease mapping models to explore the temporal trends of IHD at the county level from 1999 to 2021. ... -
A revised terrace stratigraphy and chronology for the Little Ouse River as a framework for interpreting the late Lower and early Middle Palaeolithic of central East Anglia, UK
(Elsevier, 2024-11-29)The Breckland of central East Anglia has a Pleistocene geological sequence spanning c. 1 million years, providing a framework for assessing changes in human technology and behaviour within a single changing palaeolandscape. ... -
Suicide variations between English neighbourhoods over 2017-21: The role of spatial scale.
(2024-12)Geographic studies of suicide variation typically focus on predictors at the same level as the event rates, and the possible interplay between different spatial scales does not generally figure. In this paper we focus on ... -
‘Road runners’ and Fanta: Intersectional cultural food in/security among Zimbabwean migrants living in UK cities
(2024-12-01)The incidence of food insecurity among migrant and diasporic communities living in rich global North cities is growing. A key dimension of this is the absence of culturally appropriate food which is integral to both feeding ... -

Arctic plasmidome analysis reveals distinct relationships among associated antimicrobial resistance genes and virulence genes along anthropogenic gradients.
(2024-05)Polar regions are relatively isolated from human activity and thus could offer insight into anthropogenic and ecological drivers of the spread of antibiotic resistance. Plasmids are of particular interest in this context ... -
Characterization of a Deglaciated Sediment Chronosequence in the High Arctic Using Near-Surface Geoelectrical Monitoring Methods
(2024-04-01)Accelerated climate warming is causing significant reductions in the volume of Arctic glaciers, such that previously ice-capped bare ground is uncovered, harboring soil development. Monitoring the thermal and hydrologic ... -
Principal role of fungi in soil carbon stabilization during early pedogenesis in the high Arctic.
(2024-07-09)Climate warming is causing widespread deglaciation and pioneer soil formation over glacial deposits. Melting glaciers expose rocky terrain and glacial till sediment that is relatively low in biomass, oligotrophic, and ... -
The atmosphere: a transport medium or an active microbial ecosystem?
(2024-01-08)The atmosphere may be Earth's largest microbial ecosystem. It is connected to all of Earth's surface ecosystems and plays an important role in microbial dispersal on local to global scales. Despite this grand scale, ... -
