A framework for high availability and optimum system performance in an Application Service Provider (ASP) environment
(2006-06)
The Application Service Provision (ASP) model offers access to centrally managed and hosted applications, via the Internet, on a subscription / rental basis. From its inception in the late 1990s, many have heralded the ASP ...
Population Differentiation in Blue Whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) in the North East Atlantic Ocean
(2005)
Blue whiting is a commercially important gadoid fish found throughout the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean. It is a pelagic, migratory species with feeding grounds in the Norwegian Sea and in the Bay of Biscay. The ...
Evaluation of fish pots as a feasible fishing method in Irish waters, with specific reference to the physiological effects of common and alternate pots on the lesser spotted dogfish (Scyliorhinus canicula).
(2009)
Finfish pots have emerged as a “responsible” gear, when used in combination with conservational and technical measures to sustain fisheries. Previous trials in Irish waters have offered no published reported data and so ...
A holistic stock analysis of Albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga) from the North Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea
(2009)
Albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga, Bonnaterre, 1788) is a highly migratory scombrid with a cosmopolitan distribution inhabiting all the worlds’ ocean, in both tropical and temperate regions. Albacore juveniles and adults are ...
Taxonomy of the Lysianassoidea of the Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean : an interactive identification key and studies on problematic groups
(2006)
A DELTA (DEscriptive Language for TAxonomy) database was constructed for 135 species of lysianassoid amphipods of the Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea, representing almost 20% of the total estimated number of ...
An assessment of biological and population parameters of the Common whelk, Buccinum undatum (L.) in the region of the North West Irish whelk fishery
(2006)
The Common whelk, Buccinum undatum (L.) is a conspicuous benthic scavenger in Irish waters, and is a valuable fisheries resource in South East Ireland. B. undatum is fished in many parts of its range, and previous studies ...
Age, growth and population dynamics of lemon sole Microstomus kitt (Walbaum 1792) sampled off the West Coast of Ireland
(2002)
The age, growth, maturity and population dynamics of lemon sole (Microstomus kitt), captured off the west coast of Ireland (ICES division Vllb), were determined for the period November 2000 to February 2002. The maximum ...
Extreme galaxies: TeV gamma-ray emission from the Blazar 1ES 2344+514
(2005)
This thesis describes an investigation of Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the blazar galaxy 1ES 2344+514, based on data from five observational seasons (1999-2004) using the Whipple 10-metre telescope in ...
Population genetic structure of brown crab (Cancer pagurus) in Irish waters
(2009)
The brown crab (Cancer pagurus) fishery in Ireland is one of the most important financially and socio-economically, with the species worth approximately €15m per year in the first half of the decade. Only mackerel (Scomber ...
Genetic variability and phylogeography of the invasive zebra mussel, dreissena polymorpha (PALLAS)
(2005)
The zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas), a bivalve species originally native to the Black and Caspian seas, has invaded Ireland in the last decade. Five microsatellite loci were used to investigate genetic diversity ...
