Implications of applied best management practice for peatland forest harvesting
Finnegan, Joanne; Regan, John T.; Healy, Mark G. (Elsevier (ScienceDirect), 2013-12-20)Elevated levels of nutrients and suspended sediment (SS), and changes to other environmental parameters, are frequently associated with forestry harvesting (clearfelling) operations, and are indicative of the potentially ... -
National Centre for Water and Wastewater Research and Demonstration
Clifford, Eoghan; O'Reilly, Edmond; Rodgers, Michael; O'Donoghue, Padraic (EPA: STRIVE Report 78, 2010)Decentralised wastewater treatment systems for small towns (200 2,000 PE) often have different design requirements to those of systems for larger conurbations even though the treatment process technologies may be similar. ... -

The short-term effects of management changes on watertable position and nutrients in shallow groundwater in a harvested peatland forest
Finnegan, Joanne; Regan, John T.; Fenton, Owen; Lanigan, Gary J.; Brennan, Raymond B. (Elsevier, 2014-09-01)Management changes such as drainage, fertilisation, afforestation and harvesting (clearfelling) of forested peatlands influence watertable (WT) position and groundwater concentrations of nutrients. This study investigated ... -
Use of industrial by-products and natural media to adsorb nutrients, metals and organic carbon from drinking water
M.A.. Grace, M.G. Healy, E.Clifford (2015)Filtration technology is well established in the water sector but is limited by inability to remove targeted contaminants, found in surface and groundwater, which can be damaging to human health. This study optimises the ...
