A case study: The deployment of a novel in situ fluorimeter for monitoring biological contamination within the urban surface waters of Kolkata, India (2022)
Journal Article
Fox, B., Thorn, R., Dutta, T., Bowes, M., Read, D., & Reynolds, D. (2022). A case study: The deployment of a novel in situ fluorimeter for monitoring biological contamination within the urban surface waters of Kolkata, India. Science of the Total Environment, 842, 156848. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.156848

The quality and health of many of our vital freshwater systems are poor. To tackle this with ever increasing pressures from anthropogenic and climatic changes, we must improve water quality monitoring and devise and implement more appropriate water q...

Laboratory in-situ production of autochthonous and allochthonous fluorescent organic matter by freshwater bacteria (2021)
Journal Article
Fox, B. G., Thorn, R. M. S., & Reynolds, D. M. (2021). Laboratory in-situ production of autochthonous and allochthonous fluorescent organic matter by freshwater bacteria. Microorganisms, 9(8), Article 1623. https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms9081623

This work investigates the origin and range of fluorescent organic matter (FOM) produced in-situ by environmentally sourced freshwater bacteria. Aquatic FOM is an essential component in global carbon cycling and is generally classified as either auto...

In-situ fluorescence spectroscopy indicates total bacterial abundance and dissolved organic carbon (2020)
Journal Article
Sorensen, J. P., Diaw, M. T., Pouye, A., Roffo, R., Diongue, D. M., Faye, S. C., …Taylor, R. G. (2020). In-situ fluorescence spectroscopy indicates total bacterial abundance and dissolved organic carbon. Science of the Total Environment, 738, Article 139419. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.139419

We explore in-situ fluorescence spectroscopy as an instantaneous indicator of total bacterial abundance and faecal contamination in drinking water. Eighty-four samples were collected outside of the recharge season from groundwater-derived water sourc...
