Ecopiling: a combined phytoremediation and passive biopiling system for remediating hydrocarbon impacted soils at field scale
(Frontiers Media, 2015)Biopiling is an ex situ bioremediation technology that has been extensively used for remediating a wide range of petrochemical contaminants in soils. Biopiling involves the assembling of contaminated soils into piles and ... -
Effect of an Alltech soil health product on entomopathogenic nematodes, root-knot nematodes and on the growth of tomato plants in the greenhouse
(The Society of Nematologists, 2020-03-19)An organic product that consists of proprietary blend of fermentation and plant extracts with micronutrients (ACS 5075, Alltech®, Inc., Nicholasville, KY USA) was evaluated against four strains of entomopathogenic nematodes ... -
The effect of by-product inclusion and concentrate feeding rate on milk production and composition, pasture dry matter intake, and nitrogen excretion of mid-late lactation spring-calving cows grazing a perennial ryegrass-based pasture
(American Dairy Science Association, 2019)Interest is growing in the use of by-products as economical sources of nutrients that complement grazed grass, particularly at times when grass supply is insufficient to meet the nutritional demands of lactating dairy ... -
The effect of competitive Gaelic football match play on player immunoendocrine status
(Institute of Technology Carlow, 2019)Introduction: Research by Halson (2014) suggested the importance of monitoring both internal and external training load of athletes to optimise both recovery and subsequent performances. Global Positioning System (GPS) ... -
The effect of milk on recovery from repeat-sprint cycling in female team-sport athletes
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2017)The consumption of milk following eccentric exercise attenuates the effects of muscle damage in team-sport athletes. However, participation in team sport involves both concentric–eccentric loading and metabolic stress. ... -
The effects of cows milk, goats milk, whey protein and an energy-matched carbohydrate drink on recovery from repeated sprinting and jumping in team sport athletes
(Institute of Technology Carlow, 2018)Introduction: Effective recovery following intense exercise is integral for any athlete to ensure subsequent performance is optimised (Kellmann, 2010). The aim of this investigation was to determine the effects of cows ... -
The effects of dry needling and radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy on the sensitivity of trigger points in the quadriceps and jump performance: A randomised control trial
(Institute of Technology Carlow, 2017)Background: Trigger points (TrPs) can reduce strength. Thus, may reduce jump height. Dry needling (DN) is an effective treatment for TrPs but can cause post-needling soreness, potentially reducing jump performance. Radial ... -
Effects of freestream disturbances in front of spiked blunt nose at hypersonic flow
(Council of European Aerospace Societies, 2021)The effects of high frequency slow and fast acoustic wave freestream disturbances are modelled in front of pulsating bow shock formed at spiked blunt nose in hypersonic flow. These disturbances are introduced as time-dependent ... -
