Tropical Easterly Waves Over Costa Rica and Their Relationship to the Diurnal Cycle of Rainfall

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 20, 28 October 2023., 2023
Abstract Using an index of tropical easterly wave (TEW) activity derived from spacetime‐filtered outgoing longwave radiation, we construct composites of long‐term hourly surface meteorological observations and morningtime sounding data collected near San José, Costa Rica to investigate how TEWs affect the diurnal cycle of rainfall over land.

Limited biomass recovery from gold mining in Amazonian forests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 57, Issue 9, Page 1730-1740, September 2020., 2020
To achieve large‐scale restoration targets, Guyana and other Amazonian countries will be challenged to remediate previously mined lands. The recovery process is highly dependent on nitrogen availability rather than mercury contamination, affecting woody biomass regrowth.

A nationwide assessment of microplastic abundance in agricultural soils: The influence of plastic crop covers within the United Kingdom

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 304-314, March 2024.
Agricultural soils are substantial receptors of plastic pollution. Plastic crop covers, a facet of agriplastics, may represent an important contribution to microplastic load in agricultural soils. The authors present a nationwide study of agricultural soils in the United Kingdom, comparing microplastic load between sites where plastic crop covers are ...
