Factors in organisational environmental management system implementation – Developed vs. Developing country contexts (2014)
Journal Article
Kola-Lawal, C., Wood, M., Alo, B., & Clark, A. (2014). Factors in organisational environmental management system implementation – Developed vs. Developing country contexts. Journal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2(4), 408-421. https://doi.org/10.13044/j.sdewes.2014.02.0032

Country specificities and national cultures influence Environmental Management Systems (EMS) implementation and pro-environmental behaviour in organisations. Previous studies have focused on organisations in developed or emerging economies, creating...

Predicting exposure of wildlife in radionuclide contaminated wetland ecosystems (2014)
Journal Article
Stark, K., Andersson, P., Beresford, N., Yankovich, T., Wood, M., Johansen, M., …Vandenhove, H. (2015). Predicting exposure of wildlife in radionuclide contaminated wetland ecosystems. Environmental Pollution, 196, 201-213. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2014.10.012

Many wetlands support high biodiversity and are protected sites, but some are contaminated with radionuclides from routine or accidental releases from nuclear facilities. This radiation exposure needs to
be assessed to demonstrate radiological prote... Read More about Predicting exposure of wildlife in radionuclide contaminated wetland ecosystems.

A new simplified allometric approach for predicting the biological half-life of radionuclides in reptiles (2014)
Journal Article
Beresford, N., & Wood, M. (2014). A new simplified allometric approach for predicting the biological half-life of radionuclides in reptiles. Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 138, 116-121. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvrad.2014.08.012

A major source of uncertainty in the estimation of radiation dose to wildlife is the prediction of internal radionuclide activity concentrations. Allometric (mass-dependent) relationships describing biological half-life (T1/2b) of radionuclides in or...

Spatial analysis of Carbon-14 dynamics in a wetland ecosystem (Duke Swamp, Chalk River Laboratories, Canada) (2014)
Journal Article
Yankovich, T., King-Sharp, K., Carr, J., Robertson, E., Killey, R., Beresford, N., & Wood, M. (2014). Spatial analysis of Carbon-14 dynamics in a wetland ecosystem (Duke Swamp, Chalk River Laboratories, Canada). Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 137, 173-180. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvrad.2014.07.007

A detailed survey was conducted to quantify the spatial distribution of 14C in Sphagnum moss and underlying soil collected in Duke Swamp. This wetland environment receives 14C via groundwater pathways from a historic radioactive Waste Management Area...
