Peatland restoration : controls on sediment production and reductions in carbon and pollutant export (2014)
Journal Article
Shuttleworth, E., Evans, M., Hutchinson, S., & Rothwell, J. (2015). Peatland restoration : controls on sediment production and reductions in carbon and pollutant export. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 40(4), 459-472. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.3645

Peatlands are an important store of soil carbon, and play a vital role in global carbon cycling, and when located in close proximity to urban and industrial areas, can also act as sinks of atmospherically deposited heavy metals. Large areas of the UK... Read More about Peatland restoration : controls on sediment production and reductions in carbon and pollutant export.

High mountain region of the Northern Romanian Carpathians responded sensitively to Holocene climate and land use changes : A multi-proxy analysis (2014)
Journal Article
Geantă, A., Gałka, M., Tanţău, I., Hutchinson, S., Mîndrescu, M., & Feurdean, A. (2014). High mountain region of the Northern Romanian Carpathians responded sensitively to Holocene climate and land use changes : A multi-proxy analysis. Holocene, 24(8), 944-956. https://doi.org/10.1177/0959683614534747

A high-altitude lake sediment sequence (Buhăiescu Mare, 1918 m a.s.l.) in the subalpine zone of the Rodna Mountains was analysed through a multi-proxy approach to determine the sensitivity of high mountain habitats to climate, fire and land use chang...

Impact of sludge floc size and water composition on dewaterability (2014)
Journal Article
Fitria, D., Scholz, M., Swift, G., & Hutchinson, S. (2014). Impact of sludge floc size and water composition on dewaterability. Chemical Engineering and Technology, 37(3), 471-477. https://doi.org/10.1002/ceat.201300378

In order to observe the impact of different water compositions on sludge dewaterability, assessments of floc sizes using a particle size analyzer and of sludge dewaterability based on the capillary suction time (CST) test were carried out. Synthetic... Read More about Impact of sludge floc size and water composition on dewaterability.

Assessment of Lead contamination in Peatlands using field portable XRF (2014)
Journal Article
Shuttleworth, E., Evans, M., Hutchinson, S., & Rothwell, J. (2014). Assessment of Lead contamination in Peatlands using field portable XRF. Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 225(2), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11270-013-1844-2

Ombrotrophic peatlands are highly sensitive to atmospheric heavy metal deposition. Previous attempts to quantify peatland lead pollution have been undertaken using the inventory approach. However, there can be significant within-site spatial heteroge... Read More about Assessment of Lead contamination in Peatlands using field portable XRF.
