Amorphous dysprosium carbonate: characterization, stability, and crystallization pathways
(2013)The crystallization of amorphous dysprosium carbonate (ADC) has been studied in air (21–750 °C) and in solution (21–250 °C). This poorly ordered precursor, Dy2(CO3)3·4H2O, was synthesized in solution at ambient temperature. ... -
Evaluating the influence of groundwater pressures on groundwater-dependent wetlands

Comparison of pesticide leaching potential to groundwater under EU FOCUS and site specific conditions
(Elsevier, 2013)The EU FOCUS scenarios are a set of nine standard scenarios based on a combination of crop, soil and weather data used throughout Europe to evaluate the leaching potential of pesticides to groundwater. In Ireland, ... -
Quantitative solid phase microextraction - Gas chromatography mass spectrometry analysis of the pesticides lindane, heptachlor and two heptachlor transformation products in groundwater
(2013)This paper describes the development and validation of a method for the determination of lindane, heptachlor and two heptachlor transformation products (exo- and endo-heptachlor epoxide) in groundwater. Samples were ... -
A U-Pb age for the Late Caledonian Sperrin Mountains minor intrusions suite in the north of Ireland: timing of slab break-off in the Grampian terrane and the significance of deep-seated, crustal lineaments
(2013)An intrusion of trachy-andesite, representative of a newly discovered suite of high-K–Ba–Sr, calc-alkaline minor intrusions (termed herein the Sperrin Mountains suite), hosted within the Grampian terrane in the north of ... -
The effect of aspartic acid and glycine on amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) structure, stability and crystallization
(Elsevier, 2014)The effect of organic molecules on CaCO3 crystallization, in particular on the formation of the initial amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) phase, is poorly understood despite this knowledge being crucial for designing ... -
The effect of heating on the morphology of crystalline neodymium hydroxycarbonate, NdCO3OH
(2014)The crystallization of hexagonal NdCO3OH through hydrothermal synthesis carried out at slow (reaching the desired temperature within 100 min) and quick (50 min) rates of heating but at variable temperatures (165–220ºC) are ... -
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb apatite dating of Lower Cretaceous rocks from teschenite-picrite association in the Silesian unit (southern Poland)
(2014)The main products of volcanic activity in the teschenite-picrite association (TPA) are shallow, sub-volcanic intrusions, which predominate over extrusive volcanic rocks. They comprise a wide range of intrusive rocks which ... -
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating and REE patterns of apatite from the Tatra Mountains, Poland as a monitor of the regional tectonomagmatic activity
(2014)This study presents apatite LA-ICP-MS U-Pb age and trace elements concentrations data from different granite types from the Tatra Mountains, Poland. Apatite from monazite and xenotime-bearing High Tatra granite was dated ... -
U-Pb LA-ICPMS dating using accessory mineral standards with variable common Pb
(2014)Precise and accurate U?Pb LA-ICPMS dating of many U-bearing accessory minerals (e.g. apatite, allanite, titanite and rutile) is often compromised by common Pb. LA-ICPMS dating of these U-bearing accessory phases typically ...
