Combining historical cartography and GIS to unravel the mysteries of the Isabel II dam in Níjar (Almería) (2014)
Conference Proceeding

La presa de Isabel II, también conocida como Pantano de Níjar, es una de las obras hidráulicas más impresionantes del siglo XIX en la Península Ibérica, pero también es un excelente ejemplo de cómo al ignorar los condicionantes climáticos y geológico...

An infrared census of dust in nearby galaxies with Spitzer (Dustings). I. Overview (2014)
Journal Article

Nearby resolved dwarf galaxies provide excellent opportunities for studying the dust-producing late stages of stellar evolution over a wide range of metallicity (–2.7 lesssim [Fe/H] lesssim –1.0). Here, we describe DUSTiNGS (DUST in Nearby Galaxies w... Read More about An infrared census of dust in nearby galaxies with Spitzer (Dustings). I. Overview.

Preliminary results of sequential monitoring of simulated clandestine graves in Colombia, South America, using ground penetrating radar and botany (2014)
Journal Article

In most Latin American countries there are significant numbers of missing people and forced disappearances, 68,000 alone currently in Colombia. Successful detection of shallow buried human remains by forensic search teams is difficult in varying terr...

Long-term variability of proglacial groundwater-fed hydrological systems in an area of glacier retreat, Skeioararsandur, Iceland (2014)
Journal Article

Proglacial groundwater-fed features, such as seeps, substantially impact proglacial geomorphology, hydrology, and ecology. However, there is a paucity of research on the impacts of climate change and glacier retreat on the extent of these important f...

The star formation history of the Magellanic Clouds derived from long-period variable star counts (2014)
Journal Article

We present the first reconstruction of the star formation history (SFH) of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC) using Long Period Variable stars. These cool evolved stars reach their peak luminosity in the near-infrared; thus, their K-...

A comparative case study of subglacial bedforms in northern Lithuania and south-eastern Iceland (2014)
Journal Article

This paper aims to compare the dynamics of the subglacial environment as determined by an analysis of the structure and sedimentology of both Pleistocene and modern glacial deposits. Investigations focused on subglacial sediments in areas of streamli... Read More about A comparative case study of subglacial bedforms in northern Lithuania and south-eastern Iceland.

Rapid production of cyclonic spray chambers for inductively coupled plasma applications using low cost 3D printer technology (2014)
Journal Article

The development of low cost 3D printer technology is having a profound effect on everyday life. Over the past few years there have been many reports in the media detailing futuristic uses of this technology. Whilst the merits of these applications ar...

Determining stellar macroturbulence using asteroseismic rotational velocities from Kepler (2014)
Journal Article

The Rossiter–McLaughlin effect observed for transiting exoplanets often requires prior knowledge of the stellar projected equatorial rotational velocity (v?sin?i). This is usually provided by measuring the broadening of spectral lines, however this m... Read More about Determining stellar macroturbulence using asteroseismic rotational velocities from Kepler.

The use of magnetic susceptibility as a forensic search tool (2014)
Journal Article

There are various techniques available for forensic search teams to employ to successfully detect a buried object. Near-surface geophysical search methods have been dominated by ground penetrating radar but recently other techniques, such as electric...
