DOI: 10.1002/2017jd026626
Abstract: Airborne measurements of a methane (CH4) plume over the North Sea from August 2013 are analyzed. The plume was only observed downwind of circumnavigated gas fields, and three methods are used to determine its source.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.2826
Abstract: The timing and extent of late Middle Pleistocene glaciations in England and the southern North Sea are controversial topics. The recent Trent Valley Palaeolithic Project uncovered evidence for a post-Anglian, pre-Devensian glaciation that affected much… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lno.11103
Abstract: In this study, we successfully implemented a total alkalinity (TA) analyzer in a flow-through setup, in combination with a FerryBox. The high-frequency (10 min) measurements along our ship’s route revealed that in coastal systems, where… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11242-019-01309-8
Abstract: In this paper, we examine the pore space geometry and topology of a North Sea sandstone reservoir rock based on multi-scale scanning electron microscopy. The reservoir was subjected to extensive diagenesis which has resulted in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12182-018-0232-3
Abstract: The Upper Devonian Buchan Formation reservoirs in the UK Central North Sea are litharenite/sublitharenite and were deposited in fluvial–aeolian settings. The grain-coating clays in the aeolian sandstones have effectively inhibited quartz overgrowth. Hence, the reduction… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.apgeog.2019.102050
Abstract: Abstract This study re-examines the marine spatial planning (MSP) process for Germany's North Sea exclusive economic zone (EEZ), one of the earliest European examples of MSP. It does so in order to answer whether in… read more here.
