Integrating observed, inferred and simulated data to illuminate environmental change: a limnological case study
(Royal Irish Academy, 2016)
Effective management of aquatic ecosystems requires knowledge of baseline conditions and pastvariations in stressors and their effects in order to mitigate the impacts of future variability and change. This study utilizes ...
Contrasting pelagic plankton in temperate Irish lakes: the relative contribution of heterotrophic, mixotrophic and autotrophic components, and the effects of extreme rainfall events (Pre-published version)
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)
The mobilisation of energy from allocthonous carbon by heterotrophic bacterioplankton can be proportionally more important than autotrophic production in humic lakes. Moreover, increasing levels of dissolved organic carbon ...
Disc-shaped fossils resembling porpitids or eldonids from the early Cambrian (series 2: stage 4) of western USA
(PeerJ, 2017)
The morphology and affinities of newly discovered disc-shaped, soft-bodied fossils from the early Cambrian (Series 2: Stage 4, Dyeran) Carrara Formation are discussed. These specimens show some similarity to the Ordovician ...
Delivering integrated catchment management through the bottom-up approach: a critical analysis
(Environmental Protection Agency, 2016)
Managing our water is essential to support life and protect our ecosystems. Integrated catchment management= (ICM) is about bringing water issues, people and organisations together at the right scale in order to achieve ...
Non-mineralised discoidal fossils from the Ordovician Bardahessiagh formation, Co. Tyrone, Ireland
(Royal Irish Academy, 2010)
Four non-mineralised fossils from the Ordovician Bardahessiagh Formation, near Pomeroy, Co. Tyrone, have been examined for the first time following their recovery from a temporary trench dug in 1992, and are here described ...
Planktonic foraminiferal response to the Last Glacial Termination and their application to Holocene biostratigraphy in the western Mediterranean sea
(Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick, 2011)
This research presents the planktonic foraminiferal assemblage variation of four western Mediterranean Sea cores since the Last Glacial Termination. The Holocene epoch represents the current interglacial since the Last ...
