Joint editorial: Invigorating hydrological research through journal publications (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Editors of several journals in the field of hydrology met during the General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) in Vienna in April 2017. This event was a follow-up of similar meetings held in 2013 and 2015. These meetings enable the gro...

Comparison of Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 in assessing vegetation response to soil moisture variation in droughty environments (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The aim of this study was to determine the extent to which Sentinel-2 Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) reflects soil moisture conditions, and whether this product offers an improvement over Landsat-8. Based on drought exposure, cloud-fre... Read More about Comparison of Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 in assessing vegetation response to soil moisture variation in droughty environments.

The spatial signature of the North Atlantic Oscillation in monthly rainfall patterns in Great Britain (1899/1900-2014/2015) (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Although some studies have shown the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on rainfall in Great Britain, these have focussed on wet extremes rather than the full wet-dry continuum. They have also been based on either analysis of a limited...

Let’s talk about drought: Students as research partners in creating resources for public engagement about climate change (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In what is often considered a ‘wet’ country, conversations about drought are unusual in the UK. However, the intensity and frequency of dry events has increased, with significant droughts occurring within living memory. With climate predictions sugge...

Developing an undergraduate GIS curriculum for the 21st century (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The greatest challenge in teaching a technology related subject, is the rate at which technology changes and progresses. Designing curricula in such contexts, requires a shift out of a ‘training’ mind set, to be both anticipatory and market responsiv...

Story mapping & ArcGIS online: Building bridges between students & researchers (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Researchers at UWE Bristol (UK) needed ways of communicating drought and were struggling to find an in-road as drought seems ‘low risk’ in the UK. Using Story Maps to develop conversation pieces was recognised as way forward. Students were given the...

Regionalising the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation on seasonal hydrological extremes in Great Britain (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Although some studies have shown the influence of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on rainfall in the United Kingdom (UK), these have focussed on rainfall extremes (rather than the flood- drought continuum) and have either been based on analysis...

Performance of Sentinel-2 NDVI for assessing the relationship between vegetation and soil moisture under extreme drought conditions (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Initial indications are that the enhanced spatial and spectral resolution of Sentinel-2 would allow for better assess- ment of vegetation condition, and consequently improved application in conditions of moisture deficit/drought. Although NDVI and ot... Read More about Performance of Sentinel-2 NDVI for assessing the relationship between vegetation and soil moisture under extreme drought conditions.

Exploring the sensitivity of coastal inundation modelling to DEM vertical error (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. As sea level is projected to rise throughout the twenty-first century due to climate change, there is a need to ensure that sea level rise (SLR) models accurately and defensibly represen...
