Investigating veterinary antiparasitic drugs as emerging contaminants in Irish groundwater
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2021)Due to increased intensification of the food production system, veterinary drugs have become a critical component in animal husbandry in Ireland and more broadly within the European Union. The administration of such ... -
An investigation into the Bryozoa of Ireland including the distributional patterns of the marine Bryozoa of Ireland over the last 150 years
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2020)Bryozoans are sessile filter feeding marine invertebrates. Research in Ireland on bryozoans has been sparse in recent years but many studies were carried out in the early 1900's by researchers such as Albert Russell Nichols ... -
An investigation of anticoccidial veterinary drugs as emerging organic contaminants in groundwater
(Elsevier, 2020)Intensification of the food production system to meet increased global demand for food has led to veterinary pharmaceuticals becoming a critical component in animal husbandry. Anticoccidials are a group of veterinary ... -
Investigation of the stratigrphy, maturation and source-rock potential of Carboniferous black shales in the Dublin Basin
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geology, 2000)The Viséan part of the Dublin Basin stratigraphic succession is dominated turbiditic calcarenites interbedded with grey/black shales. Sedimentological analysis of four exploration wells drilled in the north part of the ... -
Irish sills of the North Atlantic Igneous Province : seismic imaging observations and implications for climate change
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geology, 2011) -
Iron oxide and associated base metal mineralisation in the Central Midlands Basin, Ireland
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geology, 2000)This study describes and characterises the iron oxide mineralisation (hematite, magnetite, silica) associated with base metal mineralisation in the Irish Central Midlands Basin. The iron oxide mineralisation occurs over a ... -
Is bicarbonate stable in and on the calcite surface?
(2016)We have used density functional theory with the COSMO-RS implicit solvent model to predict the pKa for the deprotonation of bicarbonate to carbonate, i.e. HCO3− <=> CO32− + H+, when HCO3− is included in, and adsorbed on, ... -
Jurassic evaporites and diapirism along the southern Tanzanian continental margin: Implications for petroleum exploration
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Natural Sciences. Discipline of Geology, 2020)One of the key issues for petroleum exploration along the entire Tanzanian margin is the extent of evaporite deposition and its diapirism. This leads to scenarios for the configuration and relative movement of conjugate ... -
The Jurassic Period
(Elsevier, 2020)Ammonites underwent an evolutionary diversification after the mass extinction of the end Triassic induced by the formation of a Large Igneous province (LIP), and this group provides the most useful marine biostratigraphy. ... -
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb apatite dating of Lower Cretaceous rocks from teschenite-picrite association in the Silesian unit (southern Poland)
(2014)The main products of volcanic activity in the teschenite-picrite association (TPA) are shallow, sub-volcanic intrusions, which predominate over extrusive volcanic rocks. They comprise a wide range of intrusive rocks which ... -
LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating and REE patterns of apatite from the Tatra Mountains, Poland as a monitor of the regional tectonomagmatic activity
(2014)This study presents apatite LA-ICP-MS U-Pb age and trace elements concentrations data from different granite types from the Tatra Mountains, Poland. Apatite from monazite and xenotime-bearing High Tatra granite was dated ... -
Lake Ohrid?s tephrochronological dataset reveals 1.36?Ma of Mediterranean explosive volcanic activity
(2021)Tephrochronology relies on the availability of the stratigraphical, geochemical and geochronological datasets of volcanic deposits, three preconditions which are both often only fragmentary accessible. This study presents ... -
Landscape evolution at a young rifted margin: the Loreto region of Baja California Sur, Mexico.
(Imperial College LondonImperial College London, 2012)Continental rifts are commonly flanked by zones of high elevation. Proposed uplift mechanisms include active and induced asthenospheric upwelling, and isostatically driven lithospheric flexure. Although these hypotheses ... -
Magmatic differentiation and bimodality in oceanic island settings - implications for the petrogenesis of magma in Tenerife, Spain
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geology, 2010)The Tenerife post-Icod-collapse succession, comprised of the Teide-Pico Viejo central complex and its adjacent rift zones, marks the latest eruptive cycle on Tenerife (200-0 ka) that broadly evolved from primitive lavas ... -
The marine isotope stage 1 to 5 cryptotephra record of Tenaghi Philippon, Greece: Towards a detailed tephrostratigraphic framework for the Eastern Mediterranean region
(2018)The iconic climate archive of Tenaghi Philippon (TP), NE Greece, allows the study of short-term palaeoclimatic and environmental change throughout the past 1.3 Ma. To provide high-quality age control for detailed palaeoclimate ... -
Mesozoic-Tertiary tectonics of SE Ireland and genetic link to offshore extensional basins
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Geology, 2001)This work shows that Mesozoic-Tertiary tectonics in Central-East and SE Ireland is more significant than previously recognised. A review of the existing geological and geophysical literature and structural mapping around ...
