Enhancing solids deposit prediction in gully pots with explainable hybrid models: A review (2024)
Journal Article
Ekechukwu, C., Chatzirodou, A., Beaumont, H., Eyo, E., & Staddon, C. (in press). Enhancing solids deposit prediction in gully pots with explainable hybrid models: A review. Water Science and Technology, https://doi.org/10.2166/wst.2024.077

Urban flooding has made it necessary to gain a better understanding of how well gully pots perform when overwhelmed by solids deposition due to various climatic and anthropogenic variables. This study investigates solids deposition in gully pots thro... Read More about Enhancing solids deposit prediction in gully pots with explainable hybrid models: A review.

Estimating water storage from images (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Shahbaz, A., Yunas, S., Smith, L., & Staddon, C. (2024). Estimating water storage from images. In 2023 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (BigData) (3375-3379). https://doi.org/10.1109/BigData59044.2023.10386262

This paper introduces a novel approach to estimate domestic water storage within households by leveraging the classical computer vision technique of object detection. Ensuring universal access to safe drinking water is a critical component of achievi... Read More about Estimating water storage from images.

Household water containers: Mitigating risks for improved Modular, Adaptive, and Decentralized (MAD) water systems (2024)
Journal Article
Staddon, C., & Brewis, A. (2024). Household water containers: Mitigating risks for improved Modular, Adaptive, and Decentralized (MAD) water systems. Water Security, 21, Article 100163. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wasec.2023.100163

While the literature on the design and operation of safe water sources in low-income communities is huge, little attention has been paid to the design of systems for the safe transportation and storage of water by households between source and point...

Household water insecurity in a changing climate: The interplay between distance to water, income, caste and gender in rural Rajasthan, India (2023)
Presentation / Conference
Octavianti, T., Everard, M., Chun, K., Floyd, N., Sharma, O. P., Staddon, C., …Toher, D. (2023, August). Household water insecurity in a changing climate: The interplay between distance to water, income, caste and gender in rural Rajasthan, India. Paper presented at The RGS-IBG Annual International Conference, London

Climate change is expected to have a profound impact on Rajasthan’s water resources and consequently on household water security. This study investigates the relationship between socio-economic structures (household income, caste and gender), physica...

The fences of Chuschi: The impacts of land enclosure on an Andean indigenous community (2022)
Journal Article
Bell, K., Hermoza, R. T., Staddon, C., Willems, B., Maldonado, F. C., Berrocal, N. T., & Flores, L. P. (2023). The fences of Chuschi: The impacts of land enclosure on an Andean indigenous community. Journal of Rural Studies, 97, 224-234. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jrurstud.2022.10.004

In this study of the Andean town of Chuschi and its surrounding district of the same name, we consider the impacts of the proliferation of fencing on once open land. The paper contributes to a growing body of literature on the practice and impact of... Read More about The fences of Chuschi: The impacts of land enclosure on an Andean indigenous community.
