Density-dependent foraging and colony growth in a pelagic seabird species under varying environmental conditions (2013)
Journal Article
Davies, R., Wanless, S., Lewis, S., & Hamer, K. (2013). Density-dependent foraging and colony growth in a pelagic seabird species under varying environmental conditions. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 485, 287-294. https://doi.org/10.3354/meps10348

Intra-specific competition for food resources affects both foraging behaviour and population growth rates in many species, highlighting a need to better understand how changing environmental conditions affect individuals in populations of different s...

Plant Growth Promotion Potential Is Equally Represented in Diverse Grapevine Root-Associated Bacterial Communities from Different Biopedoclimatic Environments (2013)
Journal Article
Marasco, R., Rolli, E., Fusi, M., Cherif, A., Abou-Hadid, A., El-Bahairy, U., Borin, S., Sorlini, C., & Daffonchio, D. (2013). Plant Growth Promotion Potential Is Equally Represented in Diverse Grapevine Root-Associated Bacterial Communities from Different Biopedoclimatic Environments. BioMed Research International, 2013, Article 491091. https://doi.org/10.1155/2013/491091

Plant-associated bacteria provide important services to host plants. Environmental factors such as cultivar type and pedoclimatic conditions contribute to shape their diversity. However, whether these environmental factors may influence the plant gro...

Risk, resistance and the neoliberal agenda: young people, health and well-being in the UK, Canada and Australia (2013)
Journal Article
Brown, S., Shoveller, J., Chabot, C., & LaMontagne, A. D. (2013). Risk, resistance and the neoliberal agenda: young people, health and well-being in the UK, Canada and Australia. Health, Risk and Society, 15(4), 333-346. https://doi.org/10.1080/13698575.2013.796346

In this article we describe how concepts of risk are both generated by and used to reinforce a neoliberal agenda in relation to the health and well-being of young people. We examine how risk may be used as a tool to advance ideals such as rational ch...

Noise negatively affects foraging and antipredator behaviour in shore crabs (2013)
Journal Article
Wale, M. A., Simpson, S. D., & Radford, A. N. (2013). Noise negatively affects foraging and antipredator behaviour in shore crabs. Animal Behaviour, 86(1), 111-118. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2013.05.001

Acoustic noise has the potential to cause stress, to distract and to mask important sounds, and thus to affect behaviour. Human activities have added considerable noise to both terrestrial and aquatic habitats, and there is growing evidence that anth...

Family and Mobility in Second Modernity: Polish Migrant Narratives of Individualization and Family Life (2013)
Journal Article
Botterill, K. (2014). Family and Mobility in Second Modernity: Polish Migrant Narratives of Individualization and Family Life. Sociology, 48(2), 233-250. https://doi.org/10.1177/0038038512474728

This article revisits the individualization debate in the context of Polish migration to the UK. Drawing on empirical research with young Polish migrants in Scotland and Poland, I argue that as new opportunities for migration have shaped Polish famil...

Benefits of a worksite or home-based bench stepping intervention for sedentary middle-aged adults - a pilot study (2013)
Journal Article
Mair, J. L., Boreham, C. A., Ditroilo, M., McKeown, D., M. Lowery, M., Caulfield, B., & De Vito, G. (2014). Benefits of a worksite or home-based bench stepping intervention for sedentary middle-aged adults - a pilot study. Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, 34(1), 10-17. https://doi.org/10.1111/cpf.12056

The aim of this study was to investigate the benefits of a low-volume, vigorous intensity bench stepping programme in sedentary middle-aged adults. Thirty-one healthy but sedentary adults (12 men; 55-64 years) took part in the study. Participants acc...
