Values-led management: the guidance of place-based values in environmental relationships of the past, present, and future.
The prevalence of widespread, human-caused ecological degradation suggests that fundamental change is needed in how societies interact with the environment. In this paper we argue…
Journal Article
The land use suitability concept: Introduction and an application of the concept to inform sustainable productivity within environmental constraints
This paper addresses an application of the LUS concept: evaluating the suitability of land for sustained productivity subject to environmental constraints, as defined by water…

An event-based model of soil erosion and sediment transport at the catchment scale
Soil conservation over large areas is expensive and needs to be targeted to obtain maximum benefit for the least cost. In this paper, an event-based…
Journal Article
The error in stream sediment phosphorus fractionation and sorption properties effected by drying pretreatments
We found that drying sediment significantly influenced EPC0 and P fractions (especially the NH4Cl-P fraction). Air-drying was particularly error-prone and should be avoided. The use…
Method
A strategy for optimizing catchment management actions to stressor–response relationships in freshwaters
Defining a receiving environment,-value-contaminant system and determining a specific stressor–response relationship for that system provide valuable decision support strategy to optimize management actions toward a…
