The use of ethnographic accounts for understanding culture in construction
Presentation / Conference
Rooke, J., & Seymour, D. The use of ethnographic accounts for understanding culture in construction. Presented at Joint Meeting of CIB Working Commissions W55/W65 and Task Groups TG23/TG31/TG35, University of Reading

Culture, in the sense of a way of life, is increasingly seen as a topic worthy of study within the construction management community. There are two major reasons for this: i) recognition that the changed practices which the industry is required to un...

Seeking evidence for the role of ontological assumptions in the thinking of managers and professional
Presentation / Conference
Rooke, J., Koskela, L., & Seymour, D. Seeking evidence for the role of ontological assumptions in the thinking of managers and professional. Presented at Second Annual Built Environment Education Conference (BEECON 2006), Recruitment and Retention:The Way Forward, The Bonnington Hotel, Bloomsbury, London

Shingo's (1988) seminal innovation in the theory of production management can be seen as a re-conceptualization of production as flow rather than transformation (Koskela 1992). These alternatives can in turn be regarded as reflections of opposing ont... Read More about Seeking evidence for the role of ontological assumptions in the thinking of managers and professional.

Goddard, M., & Ruiz, R. Raul Ruiz Interview 1: 30/10/09

This is the first of two interviews with the filmmaker Raul Ruiz undertaken for my forthcoming monograph on his work. Ruiz discusses his recent projects, places and people he has worked with and the concepts of synaesthesia and cryptosthesia

Extraction of vegetation biophysical parameters by inversion of the PROSPECT + SAIL models on sugar beet canopy reflectance data. Application to TM and AVIRIS sensors
Journal Article
Jacquemoud, S., Baret, F., Andrieu, B., Danson, F., & et, A. Extraction of vegetation biophysical parameters by inversion of the PROSPECT + SAIL models on sugar beet canopy reflectance data. Application to TM and AVIRIS sensors. Remote Sensing of Environment, 52(3), 163-172. https://doi.org/10.1016/0034-4257%2895%2900018-V

The PROSPECT leaf optical properties and SAIL canopy reflectance models were coupled and inverted using a set of 96 AVIRIS (Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer) equivalent spectra gathered in afield experiment on sugar beet plots expressin...

High-spectral resolution data for determining leaf water content
Journal Article
Danson, F., Steven, M., Malthus, T., & et, A. High-spectral resolution data for determining leaf water content. International Journal of Remote Sensing, 13(3), 461-470. https://doi.org/10.1080/01431169208904049

Laboratory measurements of the spectral reflectance of leaves from a variety of species were made over the 400-2500 nm range using a spectroradiomctcr. The relation between spectral reflectance and leaf water content was investigated and the effect o... Read More about High-spectral resolution data for determining leaf water content.

The perception of susurration: envelopment in indoor and outdoor spaces
Presentation / Conference
Davies, W. The perception of susurration: envelopment in indoor and outdoor spaces. Presented at 18th Int. Congress on Acoustics, Kyoto, Japan

This paper investigates a connection between perceptions of indoor and outdoor soundscapes. The word susurration is used in non-scientific writing to describe sounds such as wind in trees and rushing water. It is hypothesised that these sounds give r...

Towards room acoustics for an elderly population
Presentation / Conference
Davies, W., Cox, T., Kearon, A., Longhurst, B., & Webb, C. Towards room acoustics for an elderly population. Presented at Acoustics 2000, Liverpool

A qualitative social survey has been conducted on a group of 207 elderly people with a hearing loss. The aim of the study was to determine the extent to which acoustic problems in the built environment affect this subject group. The project was th...

Identification of 13 polymorphic microsatellite loci in the zebra finch, Taeniopygia guttata (Passeridae, Aves)
Journal Article
(Passeridae, Aves). Molecular ecology notes (Print), 5, 298-301. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1471-8286.2005.00907.x

Polymorphic microsatellite loci were identified in order to determine paternity in a captive
population of the zebra finch,
Taeniopygia guttata
. Primer sets from 93 published passerine
microsatellite sequences were tested for cross-species ampli... Read More about Identification of 13 polymorphic microsatellite loci in the zebra finch, Taeniopygia guttata (Passeridae, Aves).
