'Seize that chance!' Leaving home and transitions to higher education (2005)
Journal Article
Patiniotis, J., & Holdsworth, C. (2005). 'Seize that chance!' Leaving home and transitions to higher education. Journal of Youth Studies, 8(1), https://doi.org/10.1080/13676260500063710

This paper interrogates assumptions surrounding the practices of leaving home and going to higher education in England and Wales. As more students from non-traditional backgrounds are encouraged to go to university, this is leading to greater diversi... Read More about 'Seize that chance!' Leaving home and transitions to higher education.

Teff and log g Determinations (2005)
Journal Article
Smalley, B. Teff and log g Determinations. Manuscript submitted for publication

A discussion on the determination of effective temperature (Teff) and surface gravity (log g) is presented. The observational requirements for model-independent fundamental parameters are summarized, including an assessment of the accuracy of these v... Read More about Teff and log g Determinations.

Practices of place-making: Globalisation and locality in the Philippines (2005)
Journal Article
McKay, D., & Brady, C. (2005). Practices of place-making: Globalisation and locality in the Philippines. Asia Pacific Viewpoint, 89 - 103. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8373.2005.00268.x

Global flows of people and information in the Asia–Pacific region are creating new forms of place that stretch across national boundaries and rural–urban distinctions. These new mobile forms of place link long-inhabited rural areas to cities, nationa... Read More about Practices of place-making: Globalisation and locality in the Philippines.

Leaving the home in comparative perspective: Negotiating processes and meanings (2005)
Book Chapter
Morgan, D. H. J., Patiniotis, J., & Holdsworth, C. (2005). Leaving the home in comparative perspective: Negotiating processes and meanings. In Young People in Transition (97-115). London: Palgrave Macmillan. https://doi.org/10.1057/9780230597778_6

There is now a considerable body of, largely quantitative, data available dealing with the process of leaving the parental home in a wide range of countries. Such data show a tendency for the process to be delayed or obscured through one or more retu... Read More about Leaving the home in comparative perspective: Negotiating processes and meanings.

Optimized sample preparation for isotopic analyses of CO2 in air: systematic study of precision and accuracy dependence on driving variables during CO2 purification process (2005)
Journal Article
(2005). Optimized sample preparation for isotopic analyses of CO2 in air: systematic study of precision and accuracy dependence on driving variables during CO2 purification process. Journal of Mass Spectrometry, 1104 - 1108. https://doi.org/10.1002/jms.888

A systematic analysis of efficiency, reproducibility and accuracy of cryogenic purification of CO2 from air samples for isotopic analyses is presented. The technical characteristics of the cryogenic line are given in detail. To study the cryogenic pr...

The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models (2005)
Journal Article
Jeffries, R. D., & Oliveira, J. M. (2005). The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 358(1), 13 -29. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2005.08820.x

Intermediate resolution spectroscopy from the ESO Very Large Telescope is analysed for 63 photometrically selected low-mass (0.08-0.30 Msun) candidates of the open cluster NGC 2547. We have confirmed membership for most of these stars using radial ve... Read More about The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models.

Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611 (2005)
Journal Article
Oliveira, J., Jeffries, R., Th. van Loon, J., Littlefair, S., & Naylor, T. (2005). Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 358(1), L21-L24. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1745-3933.2005.00020.x

We have performed IZJHKL' observations in NGC 6611, the young cluster that ionises the Eagle Nebula. We have discovered a rich pre-main sequence concentrated around the O-stars in the cluster. As measured by their L'-band excesses, at least 58% +/- 5... Read More about Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611.

Reconstruction of past CO2 concentration at a natural CO2 vent site using radiocarbon dating of tree rings (2005)
Journal Article
(2005). Reconstruction of past CO2 concentration at a natural CO2 vent site using radiocarbon dating of tree rings. Radiocarbon, 257 - 263. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0033822200019767

Total CO2 exposure levels in a naturally enriched site (Lajatico, Italy) were reconstructed using radiocarbon analysis by accelerator mass spectrometry combined with dendrochronological analysis on wood cores extracted from trees grown in the fossil...

Rethinking Locality in Ifugao: Tribes, Domains and Colonial Histories (2005)
Journal Article
McKay. (2005). Rethinking Locality in Ifugao: Tribes, Domains and Colonial Histories

In the context of lfugao municipalities applying for ancestral domain, a review of the oral histories collected within a community of precolonial "migrants" allows this article to locate an indigenous group on quite a different terrain, one with no c...

Reading remittance landscapes: Female migration and agricultural transition in the Philippines (2005)
Journal Article
McKay. (2005). Reading remittance landscapes: Female migration and agricultural transition in the Philippines. Geografisk Tidsskrift-Danish Journal of Geography, 89 - 99. https://doi.org/10.1080/00167223.2005.10649529

In the Philippines, female migration for overseas contract work is transforming local agricultural landscapes. Yet the changes in land, labour, crops and cropping patterns that are occurring may not reflect local ecology or economic opportunity as mu...
