Elucidating levels and pathways of human exposure in Ireland to POP-BFRs and PFOS (ELEVATE)
(NUI Galway, 2019-12-17)BFRs such as hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were used as flame retardants (FRs) in soft furnishings, building insulation foams, electronic and electrical goods. Perfluoroalkyl ... -
Elucidating organ-specific metabolic toxicity chemistry from electrochemiluminescent enzyme/dna arrays and bioreactor bead-lc-ms/ms
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2015-01-01)Human toxic responses are very often related to metabolism. Liver metabolism is traditionally studied, but other organs also convert chemicals and drugs to reactive metabolites leading to toxicity. When DNA damage is found, ... -
Elucidation of the role of the glutamate decarboxylase system and the gamma-aminobutyric acid shunt pathway in the stress response of Listeria monocytogenes
(2014-07-22)The foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes is the causative agent of listeriosis in humans and other animals. This disease can have a fatality rate of up to 30% in infected patients and leads to spontaneous abortion in ... -
The elusive image
(Wordwell, 2009)It is now possible to identify one symbol in Celtic La Tène art found in Continental Europe and in prehistoric Britain and Ireland that appears to be an expression of a complex religious cosmology. This is the elusive (and ... -

Embedded Reddit - An investigation into improved information extraction from Reddit through word embeddings
(NUI Galway, 2020-12-31)Social media has increasingly become a de facto source of information for people seeking to inform themselves on current events. Traditionally there has always been a centralised source such as news-papers or news ... -
Embedding non-ground logic programs into autoepistemic logic for knowledge base combination
(2011)In the context of the Semantic Web, several approaches to the combination of ontologies, given in terms of theories of classical first-order logic and rule bases, have been proposed. They either cast rules into classical ... -
Embedding nonground logic programs into autoepistemic logic for knowledge-base combination
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2011-05-01)In the context of the Semantic Web, several approaches for combining ontologies, given in terms of theories of classical first-order logic and rule bases, have been proposed. They either cast rules into classical logic or ... -
Embedding stock assessment within an integrated hierarchical bayesian life cycle modelling framework: an application to atlantic salmon in the northeast atlantic
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-02-13)We developed a hierarchical Bayesian integrated life cycle model for Atlantic salmon that improves on the stock assessment approach currently used by ICES and provides some interesting insights about the population dynamics ... -

An embodied carbon and embodied energy appraisal of a section of Irish motorway constructed in peatlands
(Elsevier, 2015-01-29)In addition to the customary drivers of cost and timely project delivery, embodied energy (EE) and embodied carbon (EC) have come to prominence in recent years as major design considerations in all aspects of large-scale ... -
Embolic strokes of undetermined source: prevalence and patient features in the esus global registry
(SAGE Publications, 2016-04-11)Background: Recent evidence supports that most non-lacunar cryptogenic strokes are embolic. Accordingly, these strokes have been designated as embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS). Aims: We undertook an international ... -

The EMEP Intensive Measurement Period campaign, 2008-2009: characterizing carbonaceous aerosol at nine rural sites in Europe
(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2019-04-03)Carbonaceous aerosol (total carbon, TCp) was source apportioned at nine European rural background sites, as part of the European Measurement and Evaluation Programme (EMEP) Intensive Measurement Periods in fall 2008 and ... -
The Emerald or Yellow Isle? Estimating the welfare impacts of agricultural landscape change in Ireland
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 2011-01)In this paper we exploit a discrete choice modeling framework to estimate the potential non-market welfare impacts of alternative hypothetical rural Irish landscapes that could become real by the year 2030 depending both ... -
Emergence in hybrid adaptive multi-agent systems
(NUI Galway, 2021-03-10)This thesis investigates a number of hybrid adaptive strategies to drive multi-agent systems from initial states of disorder towards consensus or favourable configurations. The dynamics of the agents and their communicative ... -
Emergence of instability-driven domains in soft stratified materials
(Nature Research, 2022-05-02)Nature frequently employs the buckling phenomenon to facilitate the formation of complicated patterns across length-scales. Current knowledge, however, is limited to a small set of buckling-induced microstructure transformations ...
