Restructuring the Bulgarian wood-processing sector: Linkages between resource exploitation, capital accumulation, and redevelopment in a postcommunist locality (2001)
Journal Article
Staddon, C. (2001). Restructuring the Bulgarian wood-processing sector: Linkages between resource exploitation, capital accumulation, and redevelopment in a postcommunist locality. Environment and Planning A, 33(4), 607-628. https://doi.org/10.1068/a3395

Based on recent primary research, in this paper I explore the emerging contours of the postcommunist forest-products sector in Bulgaria and, in particular, the ramifications for community-level restructuring in a small, mountainous region located in...

Theory and practice in SME performance measurement systems (2001)
Journal Article
Hudson, M., Smart, A., & Bourne, M. (2001). Theory and practice in SME performance measurement systems. International Journal of Operations and Production Management, 21(8), 1096-1115. https://doi.org/10.1108/EUM0000000005587

Describes research undertaken to evaluate the appropriateness of strategic performance measurement (PM) system development processes for small- and medium-sized enterprises (SAIEs). An evaluation is undertaken often PM approaches found in the literat... Read More about Theory and practice in SME performance measurement systems.

Heavy metal contamination of brown seaweed and sediments from the UK coastline between the Wear River and the Tees River (2001)
Journal Article
Giusti, L. (2001). Heavy metal contamination of brown seaweed and sediments from the UK coastline between the Wear River and the Tees River. Environment International, 26(4), 275-286. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0160-4120%2800%2900117-3

The concentration of Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb, Ni, Cr, Cd, and Ag were determined in the brown alga Fucus vesiculosus and intertidal surface sediments from coastal locations of northeast England. Levels of heavy metals similar to those of polluted areas of...

Policy convergence: Restructuring long-term care in Australia and the UK (2001)
Journal Article
Means, R., Gibson, D., Gibson, D., & Means, R. (2001). Policy convergence: Restructuring long-term care in Australia and the UK. Policy and Politics, 29(1), 43-58. https://doi.org/10.1332/0305573012501198

Australia and the UK have historically had very different systems of long-term care for older persons and others. Recent restructuring has led to interesting convergences of those systems - in large part, we argue, because of the limited set of polic...

A new chapter in Rh research: Rh proteins are ammonium transporters (2001)
Journal Article
Avent, N. D. (2001). A new chapter in Rh research: Rh proteins are ammonium transporters. Trends in Molecular Medicine, 7(3), 94-96. https://doi.org/10.1016/S1471-4914%2801%2901949-9

Occasionally, an original research paper has an unusually significant impact on a particular research field. Such a paper, published recently in Nature Genetics, describes the uncovering of the functional role of the Rh protein family - the proteins...

Perfect graphs of strong domination and independent strong domination (2001)
Journal Article
Zverovich, V. E., Rautenbach, D., & Zverovich, V. (2001). Perfect graphs of strong domination and independent strong domination. Discrete Mathematics, 226(1-3), 297-311. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0012-365X%2800%2900116-3

Let γ(G), i(G), γs(G) and is(G) denote the domination number, the independent domination number, the strong domination number and the independent strong domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called γi-perfect (domination perfect)... Read More about Perfect graphs of strong domination and independent strong domination.

The role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the transfer of nutrients between white clover and perennial ryegrass (2001)
Journal Article
Scott Laidlaw, A., Rogers, J. B., Rogers, J., Laidlaw, A. S., & Christie, P. (2001). The role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the transfer of nutrients between white clover and perennial ryegrass. Chemosphere, 42(2), 153-159. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0045-6535%2800%2900120-X

A glasshouse experiment was conducted in which 15N was used as a tracer applied as (15NH4)2SO4 to donor plants of white clover and perennial ryegrass. Nitrogen transfer via hyphae of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) or by other routes was studied b...

An investigation into the degree of difference in image quality between images taken on varying speed film-screen systems (2001)
Journal Article
Holmes, K., Riggs, L., Riggs, L., & Holmes, K. (2001). An investigation into the degree of difference in image quality between images taken on varying speed film-screen systems. Radiography, 7(1), 65-75. https://doi.org/10.1053/radi.2000.0300

Purpose: Film-screen speed is one of the most critical factors affecting radiation dose to the patient, with faster speed systems requiring less radiation dose than slower speed systems for equivalent examinations. However, this is not without a cost... Read More about An investigation into the degree of difference in image quality between images taken on varying speed film-screen systems.
