Development of an intertidal foraminifera training set for the North Sea and an assessment of its application for Holocene sea-level reconstructions
(2021)Regional datasets of the vertical distribution of intertidal foraminifera are useful to reconstruct Holocene sea-level changes from fossil foraminifera in estuaries and salt marshes. In this paper, we present a new ... -

Do Results based management frameworks frustrate or facilitate effective development practice? Experiences of the Irish International Development Sector
(2019)Utilising a case study methodological approach to analyse the Irish practitioner experience, this article examines if the introduction of results-based frameworks (RBFs) have led to greater impact and accountability to ... -
The dune effect on sand-transporting winds on Mars
(2015)Wind on Mars is a significant agent of contemporary surface change, yet the absence of in situ meteorological data hampers the understanding of surface-atmospheric interactions. Airflow models at length scales relevant to ... -
Dynamic river channel suggests a long-lived Noachian crater lake on Mars.
(2005)ecent images of the Noachian-age Holden Northeast Crater show spectacular meandering channels that form a complex 150 meter thick lacustrine river delta deposit confined to the northwest margin of the crater. We ... -
Dynamics of unusual debris flows on Martian sand dunes
(2004)Gullies that dissect sand dunes in Russell impact crater often display debris flow-like deposits in their distal reaches. The possible range of both the rheological properties and the flow rates are estimated using ... -
Ecological alterations associated with Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD), utilising Stable Isotope Analysis (SIA)
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geography, 2014)Research was conducted in three systems over two ecoregions to examine the ecological impacts associated with SGD. The potential applications of stable isotope analysis (SIA) in the field of SGD ecological research were ... -
Effect of groundwater-surface interactions on coastal areas hosting aquaculture activities
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geography, 2022)Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is crucial for the nutrient budgets of coastal areas and global oceans. However, its role in the function of coastal ecosystems is still poorly characterised. This study aimed to (1) ... -
An Empirical Approach to Studying Debris Flows - Implications for Planetary Modeling Studies.
(2002)High-resolution images acquired by the Mars Global Survey Mars Orbiter Camera show gullies on the walls of impact craters and valley systems on Mars. Depositional aprons associated with these gullies have been interpreted ... -

Environmental offsets in Colombia: Policy, practice and conflict
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geography, 2021)Environmental offsets aim to find a balance between economic growth and biodiversity conservation by compensating for the adverse environmental impacts of development. In Colombia, environmental offsets are being put forward ... -
Environmental risk communications : waste, incineration and dioxins
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geography, 2010)Industrialisation and modern technologies have contributed to economic and social progress, but the benefits are being eroded by the environmental and health risks associated with these technologies. Against this backdrop, ... -
Evaluating digital change detection techniques for landscape monitoring in a data-poor tropical environment. A case study of New Providence Island, The Bahamas
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geography, 2008)This thesis addresses the problems associated with conducting remotely sensed change detection for landscape monitoring in tropical island environments, with poor data accessibility and availability. The common unavailability ... -
Evaluation of nitrate fluxes into a coastal lagoon through Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD)
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geography, 2016)Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) delivers substantial land-derived nitrate (NO3-) to coastal regions, which potentially influences the environmental status and ecological balance in the receiving water. A systematic ... -
Exploring Female Academics Underrepresentation in Senior Leadership Positions: case of Public and Private Universities in Tanzania
(2022)Tanzania recognizes that gender equality and female empowerment are important for sustainable development of the country. The revised frameworks for EFA in the 2030 education agenda and the SDG5 give a central position ...
