Garden tourism in Ireland : an exploration of product group co-operation, links and relationships
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geography, 2010)This thesis explores the use of co-operative approaches, links and relationships that exist (or not) in the garden tourism sector, and whether the sector constitutes sustainable tourism provision. A brief history of gardens ... -
Gene expression analysis of canonical Wnt pathway transcriptional regulators during early morphogenesis of the facial region in the mouse embryo
(University of Edinburgh (datashare), 2009)Structures and features of the face, throat and neck are formed from a series of branchial arches that grow out along the ventrolateral aspect of the embryonic head. Multiple signaling pathways have been implicated in ... -
General mechanisms for non-additivity between multiple stressors at higher temporal and biological scales
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Zoology, 2021)Multiple anthropogenic stressors threaten the diversity, stability and functioning of ecosystems worldwide. The combined effects of these stressors can, however, be surprisingly difficult to predict due to complex interactions ... -

Genetic diversity and floral width variation in introduced and native populations of a long-lived woody perennial
(2014)Populations of introduced species in their new environments are expected to differ from native populations, due to processes such as genetic drift, founder effects and local adaptation, which can often result in rapid ... -
Genetic influence on the kinetics and associated pathology of the early stage (intestinal-hepatic) migration of Ascaris suum in mice
(2010)The generative mechanism(s) of aggregation and predisposition to Ascaris lumbricoides and A. suum infections in their host population are currently unknown and difficult to elucidate in humans and pigs for ethical/logistical ... -
Genetic variation in Miscanthus ×giganteus and the importance of estimating genetic distance thresholds for differentiating clones
(2015)Miscanthus × giganteus (Mxg) is an important bioenergy feedstock crop, however, genetic diversity among legacy cultivars may be severely constrained. Only one introduction from Japan to Denmark of this sterile, triploid, ... -
Genetics, climate and phylogeography : understanding the Hiberno-Iberian distribution of Daboecia cantabrica (Huds). K. Koch and Erica mackaiana Bab. (Ericaceae)
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Botany, 2013)Dahoecia cantahrica (Huds.) K. Koch and Erica mackaiana Bab. are two ericaceous species whose disjunct distribution in Europe is best described as Hiberno-Iberian. Both species have their origins in the Atlantic coastal ... -
Genotyping for the study of population genetics and trait evaluation in Picea sitchensis
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Botany, 2024)Genotyping provides information on the genetic makeup of an individual or a population of individuals. Molecular markers are commonly used as an affordable method of genotyping individuals, and the most popular modern ... -
A geo-thermochronological study offshore west of Ireland: the timing of exhumation and magmatic activity and the nature of the basement on the Irish Atlantic Margin
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2021)In recent years, the use of multiple low-temperature thermochronometers combined with inverse thermal history modelling of multiple samples on vertical profiles has been shown capable of detecting low magnitude exhumation ... -
Geochemical and mineralogical characterisation of the Caribou Zn-Pb VMS deposit, Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick, Canada
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2022)The Caribou Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) Zn-Pb deposit in the Appalachians of Eastern Canada is hosted by Middle Ordovician shale and felsic volcanic rocks and deposited in a back-arc environment. The entire mineralised ... -
Geochemical characterisation of the Late Quaternary widespread Japanese tephrostratigraphic markers and correlations to the Lake Suigetsu sedimentary archive (SG06 core)
(2019)Large Magnitude (6–8) Late Quaternary Japanese volcanic eruptions are responsible for widespread ash (tephra) dispersals providing key isochrons suitable for the synchronisation and dating of palaeoclimate archives across ... -
Geochemical origins of trvertines limestones in the Edward Basin, Albertine Riff DRC - Uganda
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2020)From 2007 to 2014, geological field surveys have been undertaken within the East African Rift System where hot spring Travertine and limestones have been discovered, precipitated at active, or palaeo-spring sites around ... -
Geochemical signature of rift relocations at Iceland
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geology, 2010)Iceland is located at the intersection between the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and a mantle plume. Three active rift segments at Iceland represent the onshore expression of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Iceland’s tectonic evolution has ... -
Geochemistry & Stratigraphy of the Mesozoic & Cenozoic Sedimentary Rocks Encountered in the Mandawa Basin, South Eastern Tanzania
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2021)The Mandawa Basin in south eastern Tanzania has long been regarded as the most hydrocarbon-prospective onshore sedimentary basin in the country. However, despite containing the ingredients necessary for a working petroleum ... -
Geochemistry of the Phlegraean Fields (Italy) proximal sources for major Mediterranean tephras: Implications for the dispersal of Plinian and co-ignimbritic components of explosive eruptions
(2012)Volcanic activity at Phlegraean Fields, Italy, produced several major marker tephras over a 50 ka period. The caldera forming eruptions of the Campanian Ignimbrite (CI) and Neapolitan Yellow Tuff (NYT) are of particular ... -
Geochronology and glass geochemistry of major pleistocene eruptions in the Main Ethiopian Rift: Towards a regional tephrostratigraphy
(2022)The Main Ethiopian Rift (MER) is renowned as a focus of investigations into human origins. It is also the site of many large volcanic calderas, whose eruptions have spanned the timeframe of speciation, cultural innovation, ... -
Geochronology of the Tardree Rhyolite Complex, Northern Ireland: Implications for zircon fission track studies, the North Atlantic Igneous Province and the age of the Fish Canyon sanidine standard
(2011)The British-Irish Palaeogene Igneous Province (BIPIP) is part of the larger North Atlantic Igneous Province and includes the lava fields of Antrim, Mull, and Skye. The Tardree Rhyolite Complex (TRC) in Northern Ireland ...
