Pine and mistletoes: how to live with a leak in the water flow and storage system? [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2012 The mistletoe, Viscum album, living on Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) has been reported barely to regulate its transpiration and thus heavily to affect the gas exchange of its host. The extent of this mistletoe effect and its underlying mechanism has, so far, only been partially analysed. In this study, pine branches with different mistletoe infestation

Sustainable drainage systems: helping people live with water [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Water Management, 2016 Sustainable drainage systems or ‘Suds’ are increasingly accepted as an effective means of ‘making space for water’, adapting to possible climate change and helping communities become more flood and drought resilient. This study explores potential shifts in perception and attitude through Suds installation, development and habituation.
