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 ... -
Harvesting effects on biomass and nutrient retention in phragmites australis in a free-water surface constructed wetland in western Ireland
(The Royal Irish Academy, 2008-06-26)The aim of this study was to examine the seasonal variation in biomass, total nitrogen (Tot-N) and total phosphorus (Tot-P) content of Phragmites australis in a 3-cell free-water surface (FWS) constructed wetland in western ... -
Nutrient dynamics in a peatland forest riparian buffer zone and implications for the establishment of planted saplings
(2012)Forestry on peatland throughout the world is now focused on minimising destructive effects to the surrounding environment, especially during harvesting. These effects may be mitigated through the use of well-developed ... -
