The influence of mouse strain, infective dose and larval burden in the brain on activity in Toxocara-infected mice
(2001)Outbred LACA mice and inbred NIH mice were administered low (100 ova), medium (1000 ova), high (3000 ova) and trickle (4x250 ova) doses of Toxocara canis ova and the effect of infection on activity was examined with respect ... -
Influential factors of cereal crop landscapes on aphidophagous syrphid communities
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Botany, 2021)Aphidophagous syrphids are a common group of insects in agriculture, attributed with benefiting farmers with pollination and pest control services. Farmed landscapes are also believed to have potential in supporting and ... -
Inhibition of Calcite Growth: Combined Effects of Mg2+ and SO42–
(2016)Magnesium and sulfate are each known to affect calcite growth and dissolution, but little is known about their combined effects on calcite growth rates. We grew calcite using the constant composition approach at ambient ... -
Innovating with nature: from nature-based solutions to nature-based enterprises
(2021)Nature-based solutions (NBS) to address societal challenges have been widely recognised and adopted by governments in climate change and biodiversity strategies. Nevertheless, significant barriers exist for the necessary ... -
Innovative solutions to address the humanitarian-development nexus : Review of the pilot introduction of the Blended Approach at GOAL
(goalglobal.org, 2020)In 2018 GOAL received support from the Department Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), Irish Aid, to pilot a new funding modality – the “blended approach” - intended to bridge the humanitarian-development divide through closer ... -
Insight into the origins of metasomatism along the southern margin of the North Atlantic Craton, South Greenland
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2018)The cratonic sub-continental lithospheric mantle (C-SCLM) has been isolated from mantle convection since it stabilised more than 2.5 billion years ago. Volatiles introduced into the C-SCLM drive metasomatism, ultramafic ... -
Insights into the phenotypical and genetic mechanisms regulating bud burst of temperate trees in relation to climate change
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Botany, 2012)The work presented here provides a combination of different experimental techniques and different analysis methods in order to gain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms involved in bud burst of temperate trees. Two ... -
Integrated analysis of Wnt signalling system component gene expression
(2022)Wnt signalling controls patterning and differentiation across many tissues and organs of the developing embryo through temporally and spatially restricted expression of multi-gene families encoding ligands, receptors, ... -
An Integrated Multi-Isotope and Element Distribution Study of the Irish Biosphere
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2017)Geochemical variation in major and trace element concentrations and multiple isotope systems (87Sr/86Sr, δ18O, δ2H, δ13C, δ15N) are explored within the Irish biosphere. This is done through the analysis of an array of ... -
An integrated process for planning, delivery, and stewardship of urban nature-based solutions: the Connecting Nature Framework
(2023)Mainstreaming nature-based solutions in cities has grown in scale and magnitude in recent times but is still considered to be the main challenge for transitioning our cities and their communities to be more climate resilient ... -
Integrated simulation for improved mineral recovery processes
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2021)The consumption of mineral and metals is increasing as the population grows and the demand for mineral resources will remain high and evolve as society moves towards a carbon-neutral future. The increasing demand for metals, ... -

Integrating stakeholder perspectives into environmental planning through social valuation of ecosystem services: Guidance and Prototype Applications
(OPERAs Project, 2017)Social – or socio-cultural – valuation of ecosystem services is the process of discovering what ecosystem services people value and how important they are to them. In this document, you find guidance to set up your own ... -
Integrative avian taxonomy and the role of competition in the diversification of passerine birds
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Zoology, 2014)It is well recognised that the avifauna of Asia are in major need of taxonomic reassessment. The Sulawesi region of Indonesia, renowned for its high levels of avian endemism, has been relatively overlooked by ornithological ... -
The interaction between volcanoes and strike-slip, transtensional and transpressional fault zones: Analogue models and natural examples
(Elsevier, 2011)Regional strike-slip faulting can control magma movements, deform volcanoes and may destabilise their flanks. The aim of this study is to address this problem by comparing two natural examples, Basse Terre Island volcanoes, ... -
Interaction of Ca-Mg Carbonates with Rare Earth Element bearing Fluids under Ambient and Hydrothermal Conditions
This thesis aims to investigate the mechanisms of formation of hydroxylbastnäsite, a significant source of rare earth elements, in order to uncover the fundamental principles governing its crystallisation. The precise ... -
Interaction of the CNC-bZIP factor TCF11/LCR-F1/Nrf1 with MafG: binding-site selection and regulation of transcription
(1998)We have previously shown that the widely expressed human transcription factor TCF11/LCR-F1/Nrf1 interacts with small Maf proteins and binds to a subclass of AP1-sites. Such sites are required for b-globin 54 DNase I ... -
Interannual variation in nitrous oxide emissions from perennial ryegrass/white clover grassland used for dairy production.
(2014)Nitrous oxide (N2 O) emissions are subject to intra- and interannual variation due to changes in weather and management. This creates significant uncertainties when quantifying estimates of annual N2 O emissions from grazed ...
