Waste Management, 70, 22-29. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wasman.2017.08.023

© 2017 The Authors With the increase in composting as a sustainable waste management option, biological air pollution (bioaerosols) from composting facilities have become a cause of increasing concern due to their potential health impacts. Estimating... Read More about Use of dispersion modelling for Environmental Impact Assessment of biological air pollution from composting: Progress, problems and prospects.

Advancing human capabilities for water security: A relational approach (2017)
Journal Article
Jepson, W., Budds, J., Eichelberger, L., Harris, L., Norman, E., O'Reilly, K., …Young, S. (2017). Advancing human capabilities for water security: A relational approach. Water Security, 1, 46-52. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wasec.2017.07.001

We argue that a relational water security framework informed by the capabilities approach offers new ways to consider politics and cultures of water. Each dimension allows us to better contextualize water security beyond just an object (H2O) to be se... Read More about Advancing human capabilities for water security: A relational approach.

Ecohydrological disturbances associated with roads: Current knowledge, research needs, and management concerns with reference to the tropics (2017)
Journal Article
Wemple, B. C., Browning, T., Ziegler, A. D., Celi, J., Chun, K. P. S., Jaramillo, F., …Sawyer, D. (2018). Ecohydrological disturbances associated with roads: Current knowledge, research needs, and management concerns with reference to the tropics. Ecohydrology, 11(3), Article e1881. https://doi.org/10.1002/eco.1881

Roads are a pervasive form of disturbance with potential to negatively affect ecohydrological processes. Some of the most rapid growth in road networks is occurring in developing countries, particularly in the tropics, where political agendas are oft...
