    • Application of flow cytometry and membrane inlet mass spectrometry as tools to assess dimethyl sulfide produced in emiliania huxleyi (CHC108) cultures 

      Wink, Adelaide (NUI Galway, 2023-12-04)
      Dimethyl sulphide (DMS) is a key component in the global sulphur cycle with emphasized significance in areas away from anthropogenic sources. Phytoplankton produce DMS when under stress as a defence mechanism from ...

    • Deep carbon export from a southern ocean iron-fertilized diatom bloom 

      Smetacek, Victor; Klaas, Christine; Strass, Volker H.; Assmy, Philipp; Montresor, Marina; Cisewski, Boris; Savoye, Nicolas; Webb, Adrian; d’Ovidio, Francesco; Arrieta, Jesús M.; Bathmann, Ulrich; Bellerby, Richard; Berg, Gry Mine; Croot, Peter; Gonzalez, Santiago; Henjes, Joachim; Herndl, Gerhard J.; Hoffmann, Linn J.; Leach, Harry; Losch, Martin; Mills, Matthew M.; Neill, Craig; Peeken, Ilka; Röttgers, Rüdiger; Sachs, Oliver; Sauter, Eberhard; Schmidt, Maike M.; Schwarz, Jill; Terbrüggen, Anja; Wolf-Gladrow, Dieter (Springer Nature, 2012-07-18)
      Fertilization of the ocean by adding iron compounds has induced diatom-dominated phytoplankton blooms accompanied by considerable carbon dioxide drawdown in the ocean surface layer. However, because the fate of bloom biomass ...

    • Field and geochemical studies of the Galway granite batholith - the Kilkieran sector, Connemara, western Ireland 

      Hunt, Jon (2015-04-24)
      The late-Caledonian granites of south Connemara occupy a key location in the western Irish Caledonides. The granites comprise the Galway Granite Batholith and its satellite plutons of Roundstone, Inish, Omey and Letterfrack. ...

    • Microplastic pathways in marine pelagic systems 

      Wieczorek, Alina Madita (NUI Galway, 2020-02-07)
      Marine litter and microplastics in particular have for some time now been postulated to be of environmental concern. Despite the ever-increasing amount of microplastic studies, conclusive evidence of the adverse effects ...

    • Space based observations of marine phytoplankton in NE Atlantic waters 

      Jordan, Catherine (NUI Galway, 2024-04-11)
      The main aims of this PhD thesis were  To develop a suite of satellite derived tools for the Irish monitoring programme for Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs)  To highlight the importance of in situ data for validating ...
