Constructing a typology of H2 in cities and regions: An international review (2008)
Journal Article
Hodson, M., Marvin, S., & Hewitson, A. (2008). Constructing a typology of H2 in cities and regions: An international review. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 33(6), 1619-1629. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2007.12.053

This paper primarily develops a seven-fold conceptual typology of place-based hydrogen initiatives. Through an international review of place-based hydrogen initiatives we reveal a plethora of projects, demonstrations, test-beds, ambitions and expecta...

Making water work: intermediating between regional strategy and local practice (2008)
Journal Article
Medd, W., & Marvin, S. (2008). Making water work: intermediating between regional strategy and local practice. Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, 26(2), 280-299. https://doi.org/10.1068/d3205

Since the early 1990s there has been a proliferation of calls for integrated water resource management as a strategy for sustainable water management. While literatures have examined the extent to which institutions can adapt to management defined by... Read More about Making water work: intermediating between regional strategy and local practice.

3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Romero Perez, J., & Fazenda, B. (2008, January). 3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces. Presented at Institute of Acoustics

Most of the knowledge and the existing objective acoustic measures defined to describe the sound field in large spaces are commonly evoked to predict the acoustic performance of small rooms. It is now becoming evident that this practice leads to flaw... Read More about 3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces.

Are textbook references to Darwin close to extinction? (2008)
Journal Article
Rees, P. (2008). Are textbook references to Darwin close to extinction?. School science review, 331, 43-48

The textbooks used to teach GCE A-level biology 30 years ago tended to concentrate on
traditional zoology and botany, with just a passing reference to evolution. As biology established
itself as a new discipline, books (and syllabuses) began to tak... Read More about Are textbook references to Darwin close to extinction?.
