Geophysical surveying to determine the structure and origin of the Woore Moraine, Shropshire, UK (2013)
Journal Article
Parkes, A. A., Stimpson, I. G., & Waller, R. I. (2013). Geophysical surveying to determine the structure and origin of the Woore Moraine, Shropshire, UK. Annals of Glaciology, 54(64), 97-104. https://doi.org/10.3189/2013AoG64A112

The Woore Moraine, situated within the Cheshire Plain, is one of the largest glacial landforms in Britain. However, its key characteristics, internal structure and glaciological significance are poorly understood due to limited exposure of its key ge...

Critical mutation rate has an exponential dependence on population size in haploid and diploid populations (2013)
Journal Article
Ashton, E., Channon, A., Day, C., & Knight, C. (2013). Critical mutation rate has an exponential dependence on population size in haploid and diploid populations. PloS one, e83438 -e83438. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0083438

Understanding the effect of population size on the key parameters of evolution is particularly important for populations nearing extinction. There are evolutionary pressures to evolve sequences that are both fit and robust. At high mutation rates, in...

Dynamical evolution of star-forming regions (2013)
Journal Article
Parker, R. J., Wright, N. J., Goodwin, S. P., & Meyer, M. R. (2013). Dynamical evolution of star-forming regions. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 438(1), 620-638. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt2231

We model the dynamical evolution of star-forming regions with a wide range of initial properties. We follow the evolution of the regions’ substructure using the Q-parameter, we search for dynamical mass segregation using the ?MSR technique, and we al...

Circum-stellar medium around rotating massive stars at solar metallicity (2013)
Journal Article
(2013). Circum-stellar medium around rotating massive stars at solar metallicity. Astronomy & Astrophysics,

Aims. Observations show nebulae around some massive stars but not around others. If observed, their chemical composition is far from homogeneous. Our goal is to put these observational features into the context of the evolution of massive stars and t... Read More about Circum-stellar medium around rotating massive stars at solar metallicity.

Fundamental properties of core-collapse Supernova and GRB progenitors: predicting the look of massive stars before death (2013)
Journal Article
(2013). Fundamental properties of core-collapse Supernova and GRB progenitors: predicting the look of massive stars before death. Astronomy & Astrophysics, https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201321906

We investigate the fundamental properties of core-collapse Supernova (SN) progenitors from single stars at solar metallicity. We combine Geneva stellar evolutionary models with initial masses of Mini=20-120 Msun with atmospheric/wind models using CMF...

Late Pleistocene and early Holocene change in the Weddell Sea: a new climate record from the Patriot Hills, Ellsworth Mountains, West Antarctica (2013)
Journal Article
(2013). Late Pleistocene and early Holocene change in the Weddell Sea: a new climate record from the Patriot Hills, Ellsworth Mountains, West Antarctica. Journal of Quaternary Science, 697 - 704. https://doi.org/10.1002/jqs.2668

The transition from the late Pleistocene to the Holocene (30 000-5000 years ago) was a period of considerable climate variability, which has been associated with changes in deep water formation and the intensity of the Meridional Overturning Circulat...

Doped-carbon electrocatalysts with trimodal porosity from a homogeneous polypeptide gel (2013)
Journal Article
Schnepp, Z., Zhang, Y., Hollamby, M., Pauw, B., Tanaka, M., Matsushita, Y., & Sakka, Y. (2013). Doped-carbon electrocatalysts with trimodal porosity from a homogeneous polypeptide gel. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, 1(43), 13576 -13581. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3ta12996a

One of the biggest challenges for materials science is to design facile routes to structurally complex materials, which is particularly important for global applications such as fuel cells. Doped nanostructured carbons are targeted as noble metal-fre... Read More about Doped-carbon electrocatalysts with trimodal porosity from a homogeneous polypeptide gel.

Libertarian paternalism as a tool to explore strategic sub-regional planning in England? (2013)
Journal Article
Pemberton, S., & Morphet, J. (2013). Libertarian paternalism as a tool to explore strategic sub-regional planning in England?. European Planning Studies, 2020 - 2036. https://doi.org/10.1080/09654313.2012.722971

Across Europe, a series of revisions and realignments are currently taking place in sub-national governance structures. In England, this involves the creation of a new scalar construct through the dismantling of the regional tier and the creation of...
