Assessment of Tc-99 monitoring within the western Irish Sea using a numerical model
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2010-05-26)Water circulation patterns and associated material transport within a highly dynamic system such as the Irish Sea are complex phenomena. Although Tc-99 monitoring programme undertaken by the Radiological Protection Institute ... -
Empirical correlations for the compression index of Irish soft soils
(ICE Institution of Civil Engineers, 2014-09-08)Numerous correlations have been developed in the literature relating the compression index Cc of soft soils to simple index properties that serve as a useful reality check on oedometer test results. However, many of these ... -
Field assessment of coconut-based activated carbon systems for the treatment of herbicide contamination
(Elsevier, 2023-12-03)Once released into the environment, herbicides can move through soil or surface water to streams and groundwater. Filters containing adsorbent media placed in fields may be an effective solution to herbicide loss in the ... -
An integrated approach to trophic assessment of coastal waters incorporating measurement, modelling and water quality classification
(2012)Various protocols have been developed for trophic assessment of coastal waters but most incorporate single value compliance criteria for water quality parameters which, in reality, exhibit significant spatial variation. ... -
Irish estuaries: Water quality status and monitoring implications under the water framework directive
(2011)The status of water quality of Irish estuaries is reviewed; this sheds light on the rationale behind the design of the national monitoring programme. Relative to other EU Member States, Ireland's coastal monitoring programme ... -
National Centre for Water and Wastewater Research and Demonstration
(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. ... -
Real-time monitoring framework to investigate the environmental and structural performance of buildings
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-12-20)Energy provides safety, comfort and mobility to people, and is essential for industrial, commercial and societal growth. However, generation and consumption of energy give rise of greenhouse gases and various air pollutants, ...
