Remote photoacoustic detection of liquid contamination of a surface (2003)
Journal Article
Perrett, B., Harris, M., Pearson, G., Willetts, D., & Pitter, M. (2003). Remote photoacoustic detection of liquid contamination of a surface. Applied Optics, 42(24), 4901-4908. https://doi.org/10.1364/AO.42.004901

A method for the remote detection and identification of liquid chemicals at ranges of tens of meters is presented. The technique uses pulsed indirect photoacoustic spectroscopy in the 10-μm wavelength region. Enhanced sensitivity is brought about by...

Reach-scale sediment transfers: An evaluation of two morphological budgeting approaches. (2003)
Journal Article
Fuller, I., Large, A., Charlton, M., Heritage, G., & Milan, D. (2003). Reach-scale sediment transfers: An evaluation of two morphological budgeting approaches. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 28(8), 889-903. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.1011

This paper compares two approaches used to derive measures of annual sediment transfers within a 1 km long piedmont reach of the gravel-bed River Coquet in Northumberland, northern England. The techniques utilize: (i) channel planform and cross-secti... Read More about Reach-scale sediment transfers: An evaluation of two morphological budgeting approaches..

Synthetic opals made by the Langmuir-Blodgett method (2003)
Journal Article
Bardosova, M., Hodge, P., Pach, L., Pemble, M., Smatko, V., Tredgold, R., & Whitehead, D. (2003). Synthetic opals made by the Langmuir-Blodgett method. Thin Solid Films, 437(1-2), 276-279. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0040-6090%2803%2900596-0

Monodispersive synthetic opal particles were formed by the method of Stober et al. [J. Colloid Interface Sci. 26 (1968) 62] and were made hydrophobic by reacting them with 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate. Groups of particles were dissolved in...

Sustainable operation of a small-scale flood-attenuation wetland and dry pond system (2003)
Journal Article
Scholz, M. (2003). Sustainable operation of a small-scale flood-attenuation wetland and dry pond system. Journal of the Institution of Water and Environmental Management, 17(3), 171-175. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1747-6593.2003.tb00457.x

Pond structures as cost-effective source-control drainage techniques can be applied in order to reduce the downstream risk of flooding. In the UK, there are no widely accepted performance data on pond structures, yet there is a need for detailed desi...
