The 2015-2016 El Niño had large impacts globally. The effects were not as great as anticipated in Kenya, however, leading some commentators to call it a 'non-event'. Our study uses a novel combination of participatory Climate Vulnerability and Capaci... Read More about Multiple Impact Pathways Of The 2015-2016 El Niño In Coastal Kenya.

An understanding of undesirable disturbance to the balance of organisms is needed to diagnose marine eutrophication as defined by EU Directives and OSPAR. This review summarizes the findings of the UK Defra-funded Undesirable Disturbance Study Team,...

Microalgae, macrofauna and sedimentary stability: an experimental test of a reciprocal relationship. (2006)
Journal Article

A manipulative field experiment was conducted at Blackness in the Firth of Forth, Scotland, to study the effects of differences in microphytobenthos abundance on sediment stability and macrofauna. Opaque and transparent Perspex was used to construct... Read More about Microalgae, macrofauna and sedimentary stability: an experimental test of a reciprocal relationship..
