Development and testing of a risk indexing framework to determine field-scale critical source areas of faecal bacteria on grassland. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper draws on lessons from a UK case study in the management of diffuse microbial pollution from grassland farm systems in the Taw catchment, south west England. We report on the development and preliminary testing of a field-scale faecal indicator

Remote sensing of hydrological connectivity

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012
The sub‐surface flow of water within a watershed is traditionally thought to depend solely on topographic or physical influences, such as slope, soil permeability, and channel density. Though often overlooked, some researchers propose that the role of vegetation and its feedback on subsurface flow could be just as important in some cases.

Multiobjective Environmental Cleanup with Autonomous Surface Vehicle Fleets Using Multitask Multiagent Deep Reinforcement Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a multitask strategy for plastic cleanup with autonomous surface vehicles, combining exploration and cleaning phases. A two‐headed Deep Q‐Network shared by all agents is traineded via multiobjective reinforcement learning, producing a Pareto front of trade‐offs.

Hydrological connectivity of soil pipes determined by ground-penetrating radar tracer detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Soil pipes are common and important features of many catchments, particularly in semi-arid and humid areas, and can contribute a large proportion of runoff to river systems.

Are they two seeds in a pod? Comparing seed rain recovery in grasslands using artificial grass carpets versus sticky traps

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Seed dispersal is a critical process for plant community assembly; however, natural rates of seed arrival are rarely quantified compared with other assembly mechanisms, especially in herbaceous communities. Methods Here we compare the utility of artificial grass carpet squares (“artificial grass”) for capturing seed rain with classic ...

Hydrological and sediment connectivity in three grazed Mediterranean hillslopes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Masselink et al. (2016) addressed the concept of connectivity addresses the spatial and temporal variability in runoff, sediment transport and associated substances such as pollutants and how these move through the catchment.
