The differential role of renoguanylin in osmoregulation and apical Cl−/HCO3− exchange activity in the posterior intestine of the Gulf toadfish (Opsanus beta) (2015)
Journal Article

The guanylin family of peptides are effective regulators of intestinal physiology in marine teleosts. In the distal intestinal segments, they inhibit or reverse fluid absorption by inhibiting the absorptive short-circuit current (Isc). The present fi...

ApiAP2 factors as candidate regulators of stochastic commitment to merozoite production in Theileria annulata (2015)
Journal Article
Pieszko, M., Weir, W., Goodhead, I., Kinnaird, J., & Shiels, B. (2015). ApiAP2 factors as candidate regulators of stochastic commitment to merozoite production in Theileria annulata. PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 9(8), 1-26. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0003933

The ability of vector-borne Apicomplexan parasites (Babesia, Plasmodium and Theileria) to change from one life-cycle stage to the next is critical for establishment of infection and transmission to new hosts. Stage differentiation steps of both Plasm... Read More about ApiAP2 factors as candidate regulators of stochastic commitment to merozoite production in Theileria annulata.

Assessing growth scenarios for their landscape ecological security impact, using the SLEUTH urban growth model (2015)
Journal Article
Yin, H., Kong, F., Hu, Y., James, P., Xu, F., & Yu, L. (2016). Assessing growth scenarios for their landscape ecological security impact, using the SLEUTH urban growth model. Journal of Urban Planning and Development, 142(2), https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%29UP.1943-5444.0000297

Rapid urban population growth and the associated expansion of urban areas in China (as elsewhere) present significant environmental challenges, and threaten urban and regional ecological security. Modeling land use changes is one way to aid the manag... Read More about Assessing growth scenarios for their landscape ecological security impact, using the SLEUTH urban growth model.

APCVD of dual layer transparent conductive oxides for photovoltaic applications (2015)
Journal Article
Yates, H., Gaskell, J., Thomson, M., Sheel, D., Delaup, B., & Morales-Masis, M. (2015). APCVD of dual layer transparent conductive oxides for photovoltaic applications. Thin Solid Films, 590, 260-265. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tsf.2015.08.014

We report the atmospheric pressure chemical vapour deposition (APCVD) of a dual layer transparent conductive oxide (TCO). This combines a fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) base layer with a fluorine doped zinc oxide (FZO) top layer, where we seek to uti...

Hydrothermal synthesis of zeolites from coal fly ash (2015)
Journal Article
Kotova, O., Shabalin, I. L., Shushkov, D., & Kocheva, L. (2016). Hydrothermal synthesis of zeolites from coal fly ash. Advances in applied ceramics, 115(3), 152-157. https://doi.org/10.1179/1743676115Y.0000000063

The fly ash, from the combustion of coal to produce energy and heat, is an industrial waste, in which large accumulations represent a serious environmental threat. To reduce the environmental burden and improve the economic benefits of energy product... Read More about Hydrothermal synthesis of zeolites from coal fly ash.

Audio content analysis in the presence of overlapped classes : a non-exclusive segmentation approach to mitigate information losses (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Mohammed, D., Duncan, P., & Li, F. (2015, August). Audio content analysis in the presence of overlapped classes : a non-exclusive segmentation approach to mitigate information losses. Presented at Global Summit and Expo on Multimedia & Applications, Birmingham, UK

Soundtracks of multimedia files are information rich, from which much content-related metadata can be extracted. There is a pressing demand for automated classification, identification and information mining of audio content. A segment of the audio s...

Greenhouse affect : the relationship between the sustainable design of schools and children’s environmental attitudes (2015)
Journal Article
Izadpanahi, P., Elkadi, H., & Tucker, R. (2017). Greenhouse affect : the relationship between the sustainable design of schools and children’s environmental attitudes. Environmental Education Research, 23(7), 901-918. https://doi.org/10.1080/13504622.2015.1072137

This study aims to determine if primary school children’s environmental attitudes can be predicted by whether their school had been designed or adapted for sustainability. A New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) scale for children was adopted to measure atti...
