Evidence of greater dung beetle abundance in a rewilded area compared to nearby organic farms (2025)
Journal Article

Organic farms have been shown to harbour larger and more diverse invertebrate populations and associated ecosystem services compared to other conventional farming methods. However, data on the impacts of rewilding on invertebrates remain scarce.

D... Read More about Evidence of greater dung beetle abundance in a rewilded area compared to nearby organic farms.

Managing potential pathogens in stored rainwater using small-scale in-situ electrochemical activation (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Rainwater can be a lifeline for many people who do not have piped water supplies, experience dry seasons, or live-in fresh water scarce areas. The quality of stored rainwater can deteriorate over time, due to increasing concentrations of contaminants...

A comparison of European eel Anguilla anguilla eDNA concentrations to fyke net catches in five Irish lakes (2020)
Journal Article

The European eel, Anguilla anguilla, is classified as critically endangered by the IUCN. To protect what remains of the European eel population, accurate monitoring methods for this species are important. Environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques are gaini...

The environmental and socio-economic impacts of changing agri-environment payments in Queens Sedgemoor, Somerset Levels
Report

The moor appears to be nitrate limited, but there is evidence that may suggest there is significant nitrate input in parts of the moor. It would be instructive to understand the flux of nitrates as water move through the ditch system in more detail....
