Bats and the city : urban bat biodiversity in a tropical biome transition zone (2019)
Thesis
Syme, P. Bats and the city : urban bat biodiversity in a tropical biome transition zone. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Urbanisation is an important factor in global land-use change which dramatically alters habitats at great detriment to wildlife. Our understanding of urban biodiversity patterns and their driving factors in tropical cities which interact with high le...

Multi-Scale detection, mapping, and modelling geomorphic change in gravel-bed rivers with UAV remote sensing (2019)
Thesis
Scott, R. Multi-Scale detection, mapping, and modelling geomorphic change in gravel-bed rivers with UAV remote sensing. (Thesis). University of Salford

Fluvial science is in particular need of surveying tools which can rapidly and accurately capture topographic data. The use of low-cost, consumer grade UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) systems and Structure from Motion (SfM) processing methods has seen...

A critical exploration of permaculture’s global role in sustainable development (2019)
Thesis
Smithies, O. A critical exploration of permaculture’s global role in sustainable development. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Despite emerging literature on Permaculture as a sustainable solution-based approach to the environmental, economic and social consequences of non-sustainable global growth, many accounts infer it is a political practice working against many corporat...
