Assessing the performance of domestic heating controls in a whole house test facility (2016)
Journal Article

The energy consumed by domestic space heating systems represents a considerable share of the energy
consumed in the UK. At the same time up to a quarter of English homes have inadequate controls on the central heating systems. Current modelling tool... Read More about Assessing the performance of domestic heating controls in a whole house test facility.

Sadek, J., & Meziane, F. (2016). Extracting Arabic causal relations using linguistic patterns. ACM transactions on Asian language information processing, 15(3), 14:1-14:20. https://doi.org/10.1145/2800786

Identifying semantic relations is a crucial step in discourse analysis and is useful for many applications in both language and speech technology. Automatic detection of Causal relations therefore has gained popularity in the literature within differ... Read More about Extracting Arabic causal relations using linguistic patterns.

Phylogenetic relationships of the New World titi monkeys (Callicebus) : first appraisal of taxonomy based on molecular evidence (2016)
Journal Article

Background: Titi monkeys, Callicebus, comprise the most species-rich primate genus—34 species are currently recognised, five of them described since 2005. The lack of molecular data for titi monkeys has meant that little is known of their phylogeneti...

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are an increasingly utilised marine and coastal management tool, with rates of designation rising steeply over the last twenty years. MPAs are most commonly designated for biological conservation objectives and the manag... Read More about Stakeholder perceptions of a coastal marine protected area.

The variability of UK domestic energy assessments (2016)
Journal Article
Gledhill, T., Kempton, J., Swan, W., & Fitton, R. (2016). The variability of UK domestic energy assessments. Journal of Building Survey, Appraisal and Valuation, 4(4), 264-279

The 2008 Climate Change Act has committed the UK to reduce carbon emissions by 80 per cent in 2050 from 1990 levels. Key to achieving this is a focus on reducing carbon emissions in residential property, where more than a quarter of the nation's carb...
