Evaluating, predicting and mapping belowground carbon stores in Kenyan mangroves (2016)
Journal Article
Gress, S. K., Huxham, M., Kairo, J. G., Mugi, L. M., & Briers, R. A. (2017). Evaluating, predicting and mapping belowground carbon stores in Kenyan mangroves. Global Change Biology, 23(1), 224-234. https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.13438

Despite covering only approximately 138,000 km2, mangroves are globally important carbon sinks with carbon density values 3 to 4 times that of terrestrial forests. A key challenge in evaluating the carbon benefits from mangrove forest conservation is... Read More about Evaluating, predicting and mapping belowground carbon stores in Kenyan mangroves.

Revisiting the particle size effects in centrifuge modelling (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Nadimi, S., Fonseca, J., Taylor, R. N., & Barreto, D. (2016, June). Revisiting the particle size effects in centrifuge modelling. Presented at The 3rd European Conference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics, Nantes, France

Geotechnical centrifuge modelling provides an opportunity to examine novel and complex events in a well-controlled and repeatable environment. While grain interaction and contact dynamics are considered in centrifuge modelling, the soil is treated as... Read More about Revisiting the particle size effects in centrifuge modelling.
