The Lions' Gate: Towards a Permaculture-inspired Blended Space (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Egan, C., Thompson, R., & O'Dowd, A. (2019, June). The Lions' Gate: Towards a Permaculture-inspired Blended Space. Presented at Computing Within Limits - ICT4Sustainability, Lappeenranta, Finland

In light of the devastating ecological effects of climate breakdown and with human well-being under severe stress, this paper presents The Lions' Gate-an in-development, urban, interactive permaculture project on-campus in Edinburgh, Scotland. We arg... Read More about The Lions' Gate: Towards a Permaculture-inspired Blended Space.

Using stable isotopes to assess the distribution of reproduction by migratory and resident Salmo trutta within river systems: some complicating factors (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Briers, R., Campbell, R., Galt, K., Walters, M., & Holmes, J. (2015, October). Using stable isotopes to assess the distribution of reproduction by migratory and resident Salmo trutta within river systems: some complicating factors. Presented at Second International Sea Trout Symposium

Understanding the distribution of spawning resident and migratory trout in a river system is important for fishery management. In most cases this information is lacking or only partial, and mostly derived from surveys of breeding adults. Stable isoto...

An unexpected journey: Diurnal movement into deeper waters by humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) mother-calf pairs observed off Northwest Maui, Hawai’i (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pack, A., Craig, A., & Waterman, J. (2017, October). An unexpected journey: Diurnal movement into deeper waters by humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) mother-calf pairs observed off Northwest Maui, Hawai’i. Poster presented at 22nd Biennial Conference on the Biology of Marine Mammals, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

Recent studies of humpback whale habitat use in the Hawaiian breeding grounds have revealed that mother-calf pairs favor shallow waters to avoid harassment from male humpbacks. However, human activity in these same shallow waters may, in theory, exe...

Questioning the Digital Revolution: Continuity and Change in the Design and Use of Music Technologies (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Harkins, P. (2017, June). Questioning the Digital Revolution: Continuity and Change in the Design and Use of Music Technologies. Paper presented at 19th Biennial Conference of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music

The use of digital technologies since the 1980s have changed the way in which music is stored, distributed, and consumed. The use of digital technologies has also reshaped the processes of musical production. This paper, though, challenges the view t...

Technological support for citizen science in global ecology (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davison, B., Begossi, A., Roques, K., Pandeya, B., & August, T. (2016, August). Technological support for citizen science in global ecology. Presented at 5th International EcoSummit: Ecological Sustainability - Engineering Change, Montpelier, France

The contribution of volunteers in ecology is undeniable. With developments in mobile technology and social media, many predict their contribution to become even more significant. However, economic disparities across the world challenge this vision. T... Read More about Technological support for citizen science in global ecology.

A method for deriving time-variable avian re-nesting probability functions for use in seasonal productivity models (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
White, P. (2013, April). A method for deriving time-variable avian re-nesting probability functions for use in seasonal productivity models. Presented at BOU Annual Conference. From populations to policy impact: avian demography in a changing world

The demographic parameters productivity, survival and migration ultimately determine local avian population trends. Their measurement is essential in bird conservation, for diagnosing proximate causes of population declines and for testing responses...
