Journal Article
Huang, Y., Evaristo, J., Li, Z., Chun, K., Sutanudjaja, E. H., Cardenas, M. B., …van Genuchten, M. T. (in press). The nature and extent of bomb tritium remaining in deep vadose zone: A synthesis and prognosis. Vadose Zone Journal, https://doi.org/10.1002/vzj2.20304

Tritium present in deep vadose zones is a useful tracer for estimating groundwater recharge, but its full utility is constrained by not knowing where and for how long the tritium tracing method remains applicable. We obtained 44 tritium profiles from... Read More about The nature and extent of bomb tritium remaining in deep vadose zone: A synthesis and prognosis.

Towards a socio-material approach to reducing the water demand of cleanliness (2023)
Thesis
Simpson, K. Towards a socio-material approach to reducing the water demand of cleanliness. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/9642880

In the UK, water supplies are under pressure from climate, population, and lifestyle change, and showering is the largest component of domestic water consumption. Students are high water-users, in part due to pressure to conform to high standards of... Read More about Towards a socio-material approach to reducing the water demand of cleanliness.

The spatial configuration of local climate zones reveals effects on wayfinding in human walking (2023)
Journal Article
Fan, P. Y., Chun, K. P., Tan, M. L., Mah, D., Mijic, A., Strickert, G., & Yetemen, O. (2023). The spatial configuration of local climate zones reveals effects on wayfinding in human walking. PLoS ONE, 18(9), e0289780. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0289780

The importance of easy wayfinding in complex urban settings has been recognized in spatial planning. Empirical measurement and explicit representation of wayfinding, however, have been limited in deciding spatial configurations. Our study proposed an...

Identifying the impacts of land-use spatial patterns on street-network accessibility using geospatial methods (2023)
Journal Article
Fan, P. Y., Chun, K. P., Mijic, A., Tan, M. L., Zhai, W., & Yetemen, O. (2024). Identifying the impacts of land-use spatial patterns on street-network accessibility using geospatial methods. Geographical Analysis, 56(2), 284-302. https://doi.org/10.1111/gean.12374

While the land use-street network nexus is well acknowledged, evidence for the one-way impacts of land-use patterns on street accessibility is still inadequate. The measurements of land-use patterns and street accessibility lack systematic knowledge....
