Whole‐House Thermal Bridge Modelling for Accurate Retrofit Energy Prediction

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study models thermal bridging in a UK semi‐detached house across pre‐ and post‐retrofit scenarios using piecemeal and whole‐house approaches with EWI and IWI. Whole‐house retrofits reduce heat transfer coefficient by 60%; findings demonstrate that default values are often unrepresentative and advocate tailored Ψ value databases.

Pollinator risks and recovery from air pollutant interactions during the fossil‐fuel transition

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
By altering the composition and concentration of floral scents, air pollutants such as ozone (O3) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) disrupt the ability of insect pollinators to locate flowers, threatening biodiversity and crop production. We examine the impact of these pollutants on pollinator performance and evaluate the short‐ and long‐term consequences of ...

Applying a Complexity Lens to Policy Implementation: How Feedback Loops Help to Understand Systems Change in Integrated Healthcare

open access: yesThe International Journal of Health Planning and Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although a complexity theory lens can help to understand national policy implementation at a local government level, application of this lens often remains at a metaphorical level. We illustrate how complexity concepts, such as adaptation, feedback, emergence and co‐evolution can be used practically in research on policy ...
