Coordination of care by breeders and helpers in the cooperatively breeding long-tailed tit (2022)
Journal Article
Halliwell, C., Beckerman, A., Germain, M., Patrick, S., Leedale, A., & Hatchwell, B. (2022). Coordination of care by breeders and helpers in the cooperatively breeding long-tailed tit. Behavioral Ecology, 33(4), 844-858. https://doi.org/10.1093/beheco/arac048

In species with biparental and cooperative brood care, multiple carers cooperate by contributing costly investments to raise a shared brood. However, shared benefits and individual costs also give rise to conflict among carers conflict among carers o...

Holocene wildfire regimes in western Siberia: interaction between peatland moisture conditions and the composition of plant functional types (2022)
Journal Article

Wildfire is the most common disturbance type in boreal forests and can trigger significant changes in forest composition. Waterlogging in peatlands determines the degree of tree cover and the depth of the burnt horizon associated with wildfires. Howe...

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) can be experimentally infected with both marine and freshwater fish trypanosomes. (2022)
Journal Article

Trypanosomes are haemoflagellates found in vertebrate species and many of them can cause death in infected hosts including fish and humans. With the development of high-density farming in marine and freshwater fish aquaculture systems, severe disease...

The impact of different climate scenarios, drought, and water level management on the outflow water quality of peatlands has been investigated. A mesocosm experiment has been conducted within climate control chambers to simulate current (2016-2019 re...

There are different subsets of T regulatory cells (Tregs), orchestrating critical roles in the regulation of anti-tumor immunity in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we report that a high frequency of circulating CD4+FoxP3+ Tregs was associated...

How factors of collaboration affect delivery of construction projects with a high degree of reliance on building services; an action research and cross-case study analysis of Edinburgh primary schools (2022)
Thesis
Carrick, D. How factors of collaboration affect delivery of construction projects with a high degree of reliance on building services; an action research and cross-case study analysis of Edinburgh primary schools. (Thesis). University of Salford

The construction industry has often been criticised for lack of collaboration and the effect this has on delivering value to Clients.
This research was undertaken from the viewpoint of a practicing Quantity Surveyor (Professional Doctorate) to inves...
