    • A deconvolutional Bayesian mixing model approach for river basin sediment source apportionment 

      Blake, William; Boeckx, Pascal; Stock, Brian; Smith, Hugh; Bodé, Samuel; Upadhayay, Hari; Gaspar, Leticia; Goddard, Rupert; Lennard, Amy; Lizaga, Ivan; Lobb, David; Owens, Philip; Petticrew, Ellen; Kuzyk, Zou; Gari, Bayu; Munishi, Linus; Mtei, Kelvin; Nebiyu, Amsalu; Mabit, Lionel; Navas, Ana; Semmens, Brice (Scientific Reports, 2018-08-30)
      Increasing complexity in human-environment interactions at multiple watershed scales presents major challenges to sediment source apportionment data acquisition and analysis. Herein, we present a step-change in the ...

    • Determining tributary sources of increased sedimentation in East-African Rift Lakes. 

      Wynants, Maarten; Millward, Geoffrey; Patrick, Aloyce; Taylor, Alex; Brendonck, Luc; Gilvear, David; Boeckx, Pascal; Blake, William; Munishi, Linus; Mtei, Kelvin; Ndakidemi, Patrick (Elsevier B.V., 2020-05-15)
      Temporal and spatial sediment dynamics in an East-African Rift Lake (Lake Manyara, Tanzania), and its river inputs, have been evaluated via a combination of sediment tracing and radioactive dating. Changes in sedimentation ...

    • Drivers of increased soil erosion in East Africa’s agro-pastoral systems: changing interactions between the social, economic and natural domains 

      Wynants, Maarten; Kelly, Claire; Mtei, Kelvin; Munishi, Linus; Patrick, Aloyce; Rabinovich, Anna; Nasseri, Mona; Gilvear, David; Roberts, Neil; Boeckx, Pascal; Wilson, Geoff; Blake, William; Ndakidemi, Patrick (Springer, 2019-06-08)
      Increased soil erosion is one of the main drivers of land degradation in East Africa’s agricultural and pastoral landscapes. This wicked problem is rooted in historic disruptions to co-adapted agro-pastoral systems. ...

    • Soil erosion in East Africa: an interdisciplinary approach to realising pastoral land management change 

      Blake, William; Rabinovich, Anna; Wynants, Maarten; Kelly, Claire; Nasseri, Mona; Ngondya, Issakwisa; Patrick, Aloyce; Mtei, Kelvin; Munishi, Linus; Boeckx, Pascal; Navas, Ana; Smith, Hugh; Gilvear, David; Wilson, Geoff; Roberts, Neil; Ndakidemi, Patrick (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2018-12-03)
      Implementation of socially acceptable and environmentally desirable solutions to soil erosion challenges is often limited by (1) fundamental gaps between the evidence bases of different disciplines and (2) an implementation ...
