Historical greenhouse gas concentrations for climate modelling (CMIP6) (2017)
Journal Article
(2017). Historical greenhouse gas concentrations for climate modelling (CMIP6). Geoscientific Model Development, 2057 - 2116. https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-10-2057-2017

Atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations are at unprecedented, record-high levels compared to the last 800?000 years. Those elevated GHG concentrations warm the planet and – partially offset by net cooling effects by aerosols – are largely res...

Assessing the Seismic Wavefield of a Wind Turbine Using Polarization Analysis (2017)
Journal Article
(2017). Assessing the Seismic Wavefield of a Wind Turbine Using Polarization Analysis. Wind Energy, 1841-1850. https://doi.org/10.1002/we.2124

Ambient seismic noise can often be seen as problematic, but with the right analysis can act as a tool to image the Earth. Wind turbines are known to generate low frequency vibrations, however, the wave types that are generated are currently unknown....

Development of high-throughput methods to screen disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG 2-1 in oilseed rape (2017)
Journal Article
Bruce, T., Ray, R., Drizou, F., & Graham, N. (2017). Development of high-throughput methods to screen disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG 2-1 in oilseed rape. Plant Methods, 45 -?. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13007-017-0195-1

BACKGROUND: Rhizoctonia solani (Kühn) is a soil-borne, necrotrophic fungus causing damping off, root rot and stem canker in many cultivated plants worldwide. Oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) is the primary host for anastomosis group (AG) 2-1 of R....

Multiple kinematical populations in Vela OB2 from Gaia DR1 data (2017)
Journal Article
Damiani, F., Prisinzano, L., Jeffries, R., Sacco, G., Randich, S., & Micela, G. (2017). Multiple kinematical populations in Vela OB2 from Gaia DR1 data. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 602, L1 - L1. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201730867

Context. Recent results using radial-velocity measurements from the Gaia-ESO Survey have led to the discovery of multiple kinematic populations across the Vela OB2 association. We present here a proper-motion study of the same region. Aims. Our aim... Read More about Multiple kinematical populations in Vela OB2 from Gaia DR1 data.

Accountability, international law, and the World Health Organization: A need for reform? (2017)
Journal Article
(2017). Accountability, international law, and the World Health Organization: A need for reform?

Recently the World Health Organization (henceforward WHO) has received significant criticism for its choice of action, as well as on occasion its inaction, with much of this criticism focusing on the role the Organization plays in coordinating the gl...

Enhanced intracellular delivery and controlled drug release of magnetic PLGA nanoparticles modified with transferrin (2017)
Journal Article
Cui, Y., Xu, Q., Davoodi, P., Wang, D., & Wang, C. (2017). Enhanced intracellular delivery and controlled drug release of magnetic PLGA nanoparticles modified with transferrin. Acta pharmacologica Sinica, 38(6), 943-953. https://doi.org/10.1038/aps.2017.45

Owing to the presence of multidrug resistance in tumor cells, conventional chemotherapy remains clinically intractable. To enhance the therapeutic efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents, targeting strategies based on magnetic polymeric nanoparticles mod...

Evaluation of peroxidative stress of cancer cells in vitro by real-time quantification of volatile aldehydes in culture headspace (2017)
Journal Article
Shestivska, V., Rutter, A. V., Sule-Suso, J., Smith, D., & Spanel, P. (2017). Evaluation of peroxidative stress of cancer cells in vitro by real-time quantification of volatile aldehydes in culture headspace. Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, 31(16), 1344-1352. https://doi.org/10.1002/rcm.7911

Rationale Peroxidation of lipids in cellular membranes results in the release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including saturated aldehydes. The real-time quantification of trace VOCs produced by cancer cells during peroxidative stress present...

7. Fascism and the radical right (2017)
Book Chapter
Kallis, A. (2017). 7. Fascism and the radical right. In Political Ideologies. Oxford University Press. https://doi.org/10.1093/hepl/9780198727859.003.0007

This chapter examines fascism as a distinct form of ultra-nationalism, combining glorification of the nation with aggressive exclusion of those perceived as outsiders and even more enemies. It first considers the ‘era of fascism’ and the basic tenets... Read More about 7. Fascism and the radical right.
