An efficient calibration technique for heat dissipation matric water potential sensors (2015)
Journal Article
Pan, X., Ireson, A. M., Helgason, W., & Chun, K. P. (2015). An efficient calibration technique for heat dissipation matric water potential sensors. Soil Science Society of America Journal, 79(4), 1115-1122. https://doi.org/10.2136/sssaj2014.10.0413

Heat dissipation sensors are used to measure matric potential in soils. A van Genuchten equation can be used to fit the relationship between measured heat dissipation and matric potential. Calibration is required for each probe because of intrinsic v... Read More about An efficient calibration technique for heat dissipation matric water potential sensors.

The changing water cycle: The Boreal Plains ecozone of Western Canada (2015)
Journal Article
Ireson, A. M., Barr, A. G., Johnstone, J. F., Mamet, S. D., van der Kamp, G., Whitfield, C. J., …Sagin, J. (2015). The changing water cycle: The Boreal Plains ecozone of Western Canada. Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Water, 2(5), 505-521. https://doi.org/10.1002/WAT2.1098

The Boreal Plains Ecozone (BPE) in Western Canada is expected to be an area of maximum ecological sensitivity in the 21st century. Successful climate adaptation and sustainable forest management require a better understanding of the interactions betw...

Tourism and Water Inequity in Bali: A Social-Ecological Systems Analysis (2015)
Journal Article
Cole, S., & Browne, M. (2015). Tourism and Water Inequity in Bali: A Social-Ecological Systems Analysis. Human Ecology, 43(3), 439-450. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10745-015-9739-z

© 2015 Springer Science+Business Media New York. This paper is a social-ecological systems (SES) analysis of tourism and water inequity in Bali. It uses Elinor Ostrom's SES model to look at the particular niche of Bali's tourism and water nexus. Re-a... Read More about Tourism and Water Inequity in Bali: A Social-Ecological Systems Analysis.

Data, interface, security: Assembling technologies that govern the future (2015)
Journal Article
O'Grady, N., & O'Grady, N. (2015). Data, interface, security: Assembling technologies that govern the future. Geoforum, 64, 130-137. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoforum.2015.06.015

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. Over the last decade, fire governance practices in the British Fire and Rescue Service (FRS) have undergone fundamental transformation. Rather than just being responded to as and when they occur, the FRS have adopted a range of a... Read More about Data, interface, security: Assembling technologies that govern the future.

Unpacking viewpoints on water security: Lessons from the South Saskatchewan River Basin (2015)
Journal Article
Strickert, G., Chun, K. P., Bradford, L., Clark, D., Gober, P., Reed, M. G., & Payton, D. (2016). Unpacking viewpoints on water security: Lessons from the South Saskatchewan River Basin. Water Policy, 18(1), 50-72. https://doi.org/10.2166/wp.2015.195

Water is essential for human development and the environment; however, its security is challenged by factors such as competing uses, over extraction, and divergent perspectives. The focus of this paper is to better understand how different stakeholde... Read More about Unpacking viewpoints on water security: Lessons from the South Saskatchewan River Basin.

Temporal dynamics of catchment transit times from stable isotope data (2015)
Journal Article
Klaus, J., Chun, K. P., McGuire, K. J., & McDonnell, J. J. (2015). Temporal dynamics of catchment transit times from stable isotope data. Water Resources Research, 51(6), 4208-4223. https://doi.org/10.1002/2014WR016247

Time variant catchment transit time distributions are fundamental descriptors of catchment function but yet not fully understood, characterized, and modeled. Here we present a new approach for use with standard runoff and tracer data sets that is bas... Read More about Temporal dynamics of catchment transit times from stable isotope data.

Has UK Local Government Action Improved Local Air Quality? A Bristol Case Study (2015)
Journal Article
Barnes, J. H., Hayes, E. T., & Longhurst, J. W. S. (2015). Has UK Local Government Action Improved Local Air Quality? A Bristol Case Study. WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 198, 243-254. https://doi.org/10.2495/AIR150201

© 2015 WIT Press. In 2013, the UK exceeded the EU limit value for nitrogen dioxide (NO2) annual mean at 31 of its 43 zones and agglomerations. Current government predictions are that full compliance will not be achieved until after 2030, with 65% zon... Read More about Has UK Local Government Action Improved Local Air Quality?

Recasting resilience beyond 'failure management': Lessons for planning our cities (2015)
Journal Article
Gopinath, D. (2015). Recasting resilience beyond 'failure management': Lessons for planning our cities. International Journal of Society Systems Science, 7(2), 127

Much recently, the term 'resilience' has generated considerable interest. But, it is rather hard to pin down what it means. Equally challenging is in knowing what the scope of resilience might be and how/whether such an understanding might help addre...

Bike sharing: A review of evidence on impacts and processes of implementation and operation (2015)
Journal Article
Ricci, M. (2015). Bike sharing: A review of evidence on impacts and processes of implementation and operation. Research in Transportation Business and Management, 15, 28-38. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rtbm.2015.03.003

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. Despite the popularity of bike sharing, there is a lack of evidence on existing schemes and whether they achieved their objectives. This paper is concerned with identifying and critically interpreting the available evidence on bi...
