Importance of Physico-Chemical cycling of nutrients and carbon in Marine Transitional Zones
NUTS&BOLTS is a 4-year project funded by the EPA and Marine Institute Ireland which focuses on biogeochemical cycling of nutrients and elements in Irish marine transitional zones (MTZs) and fluxes of bio-relevant elements from Irish surface and groundwaters to the MTZ and continental shelf.
Project endorsed in IMBER
International support for the NUTS&BOLTS project sought through endorsement by the IMBER project office (www.imber.info). The work here on multiple stressors is strongly aligned with IMBER’s stated goals...
Citizen science portal
We will establish a citizen science portal for 2-way information flow regarding the current status of each of the MTZ sites under investigation. We intend to actively involve citizen scientists in this work to help us ...
The DGT technique
New in-situ passive sampling technique for monitoring the dissolved and labile trace metal concentrations in Irish transitional waters. The DGT technique is a well-established time-integrated, in-situ, passive...
