Urban sustainability: Problems facing the 'local' approach to carbon-reduction strategies (1998)
Journal Article
Gibbs, D. C., McEvoy, D., & Longhurst, J. W. S. (1998). Urban sustainability: Problems facing the 'local' approach to carbon-reduction strategies. Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy, 16(4), 423-431. https://doi.org/10.1068/c160423

Urban policies which include energy and environmental objectives are seen as potentially effective instruments in the quest for urban sustainability. Recent consensus is that the modern city region forms an important focal point for assessment and im...

Journal Article
Costello, J. F., & Davies, S. G. (1998). The conformational analysis of phosphine ligands in organometallic complexes: Part 1: Triphenylphosphine coordinated to an achiral metal centre 1. Journal of the Chemical Society, Perkin Transactions 2, 7, 1683-1690. https://doi.org/10.1039/A708014J

The conformational analyses of PPh3 1 and the representative achiral metal complexes [Al(PPh3)(Me)3] 2, [Fe(PPh3)(CO)4] 7 and [Ir(PPh3)2(CO)3]+ 8 possessing tetrahedral and trigonal-bipyramidal geometries are reported, and comparisons between the cal...

Application of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to modelling birth prevalence of Down syndrome (1998)
Journal Article
Bray, I., & Wright, D. E. (1998). Application of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to modelling birth prevalence of Down syndrome. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 47(4), 589-602. https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-9876.00130

Data collected before the routine application of prenatal screening are of unique value in estimating the natural live-birth prevalence of Down syndrome. However, much of these data are from births from over 20 years ago and they are of uncertain qua...
