Effects of heavy metal contamination in saltmarsh and reed bed on carbon sequestration (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Enya, O., Lin, C., & James, P. (2017, June). Effects of heavy metal contamination in saltmarsh and reed bed on carbon sequestration. Poster presented at Salford Postgraduate Annual Research Conference (SPARC), Media city

Assessing stabilization of soil organic matter (SOM) with heavy metal contamination is one factor that will invariably provide an answer to whether heavy metal contamination affects the storage of soil organic matter/carbon. The transformations of SO... Read More about Effects of heavy metal contamination in saltmarsh and reed bed on carbon sequestration.

Funding environmental management and research over the long term : the Mersey Gateway case study (2017)
Presentation / Conference
James, P. (2017, June). Funding environmental management and research over the long term : the Mersey Gateway case study. Presented at IALE(UK) Annual Conference: 25 Years of Landscape Ecology, Manchester Metropolitan University

When a local authority is the developer of a major civil engineering project, the normal route to ensure appropriate environmental mitigation, a Section 106 agreement, is not feasible. The construction of a six-lane toll bridge between Runcorn and Wi... Read More about Funding environmental management and research over the long term : the Mersey Gateway case study.

Presentation / Conference
James, P. (2015, June). Urban ecosystems : Challenges for applied urban modelling. Presented at The 5th Symposium on Applied Urban Modelling (AUM) 2015, University of Cambridge

The concept of an ecosystem can be understood as the sum of the biotic and abiotic elements in an area of study, or as the patterns and processes that operate within that area of study as a result of the interaction between the biotic and abiotic com...

Linking sustainable drainage systems (SuDS), ecosystem services and disservices using a communication and planning tool: New connections in urban ecology (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Mak, C., James, P., & Miklas, S. (2013, July). Linking sustainable drainage systems (SuDS), ecosystem services and disservices using a communication and planning tool: New connections in urban ecology. Poster presented at 1st Congress of the Society for Urban Ecology, Berlin, Germany

A SuDS communication and planning tool is proposed to tackle urban diffuse pollution. This planning tool examines SuDS through the ecosystem services and disservices approach in order to illustrate the actual benefits of SuDS to all stakeholders invo...

Linking sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and ecosystem services: New connections in urban ecology (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Mak, C., James, P., & Scholz, M. (2013, June). Linking sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and ecosystem services: New connections in urban ecology. Presented at Water for the future – A practical knowledge exchange, Hindu Gujarat Centre, Preston

Urban Diffuse Pollution is a major contributor that will prevent UK’s water bodies from achieving the Good chemical and ecological status by 2015, a WFD deadline. My innovative solution is a planning tool linking Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS)...
