Recasting resilience beyond 'failure management': Lessons for planning our cities (2015)
Journal Article

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...

Terra incognita: Women on Royal Geographical Society-supported expeditions 1913-1970 (2015)
Thesis

Women’s expeditionary work, in common with women’s geographical work more broadly, has been comparatively understudied within the history of geographical thought and practice, and within the wider discipline, until relatively recently (Domosh 1991a,...

Bike sharing: A review of evidence on impacts and processes of implementation and operation (2015)
Journal Article

© 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...

Laboratory studies on granular filters and their relationship to geotextiles for stormwater pollutant reduction (2015)
Journal Article

Applications of geotextiles within tertiary stormwater treatment systems and for stormwater infiltration can provide a substrate for biofilm formation, enabling biological treatment of contaminants. Geotextiles can serve as an efficient part of storm... Read More about Laboratory studies on granular filters and their relationship to geotextiles for stormwater pollutant reduction.

Deciphering tectonic controls on fluvial sedimentation within the Barmer Basin, India: The lower cretaceous Ghaggar-Hakra formation (2015)
Journal Article

The Cretaceous of NW India is poorly known from sparse outcrops in Rajasthan and Gujarat. Here, we describe the stratigraphy and sedimentology of outcrops of the Ghaggar-Hakra Formation of probable Lower Cretaceous age from the Sarnoo Hills, eastern...

The importance of regional scenarios for low carbon transitions: The case of Wales (2015)
Journal Article

This paper examines the complexities of modelling a regional energy system in the context of Wales, and in the process, examines the role of regions in low carbon transitions. Despite a wealth of studies at national level, it can be challenging to de... Read More about The importance of regional scenarios for low carbon transitions: The case of Wales.

Breathing Space: The Natural and Unnatural History of Air (2015)
Book

The air and the atmosphere, respectively the physical ‘stuff’ we breathe and the wider gaseous and energetic layers surrounding our home planet, comprise immensely complex and dynamic flows of energy, matter and living things. The atmosphere is, by... Read More about Breathing Space: The Natural and Unnatural History of Air.

Towards a theory of the dynamics of household car ownership: Insights from a mobility biographies approach (2015)
Book Chapter

Household car ownership has arguably been one of the most widely studied areas within the field of transport research. Recently, studies in this area have moved to a focus on understanding the dynamic (time varying) nature of household car ownership....

Randomised Controlled Trials, Evidence Hierarchies and Smarter Choices (2015)
Journal Article

A growing body of literature aimed at policymakers as well as researchers criticises the quality of much transport research and advocates a methodological hierarchy with randomised controlled trials at the top as the solution. This article critically... Read More about Randomised Controlled Trials, Evidence Hierarchies and Smarter Choices.
