Year: 2006
The report by the subcommittee of National Platform for Biodiversity Research, to develop a framework for a biodiversity research programme for Ireland.
ERTDI Report 44 - Broderick et al , July 2006
Year: 2006
Ambient air quality measurements in Ireland as determined on the basis of the EU framework directive on ambient air quality assessment and management.
Environmental Research Centre - ERC Report 4 - J.A. Kelly, July 2006
Year: 2006
Examines the Regional Air Pollution Information and Simulation model, a European-scale integrated assessment model dealing with air quality and associated effects. The model outputs are used in the negotiation, setting and assessment of emission ceiling targets for 2020 under the Gothenburg Protocol and the EU National Emission Ceilings Directive - Author: J.A. Kelly

Environmental Research Centre – ERC Report 1 – Bashir et al., June 2006
Year: 2006
EPA National Environmental Research Centre (ERC) report, produced in co-operation with Met Éireann, the first in a series on air pollution and acidification.
ERTDI Report 48 – Jennings et al, June 2006
Year: 2006
A study of the major source categories contributing to particulate air pollution in urban and non-urban areas in Ireland. This report was prepared as part of the Environmental Research Technological Development and Innovation Programme under the Productive Sector Operational Programme 2000–2006.

ERTDI Report 35 – Jennings et al., May 2006
Year: 2006
An analysis of the Mace Head atmospheric record to provide a synthesis estimate of the fluxes of CO2, CH4 and N2O for Ireland over the period 1995–2000.The proposed atmospheric method is entirely independent of statistical inventories, and therefore constitutes a unique ‘top–down’ verification of Irish greenhouse gas emissions inventories.

Final Report (ERTDI Report 54) of the ERTDI-funded project 2000-DS-6-M1, by Sue Scott and Dorothy Watson (ESRI)
Final Report - ERTDI Report 43 - Daly , May 2006
Year: 2006
Eutrophication study using three modelling approaches to capture a range of modelling complexities and methodologies that could be applied to Irish data. The three modelling studies captured physically based, empirical and risk assessment (multi-criteria) models.
Final Report - ERTDI Report 42 - Daly et al , May 2006
Year: 2006
Research relating water quality data to catchment characteristics, and deriving a model that describes or predicts P levels in Irish surface waters.
Final Report - ERTDI Report 40 - Doody et al , May 2006
Year: 2006
Investigates processes controlling phosphorus (P) loss in overland flow, to identify, describe and evaluate mechanisms responsible for this observed increase in dissolved P concentration with an increase in overland flow rate.
Synthesis Report - ERTDI Report 49 - Bruen et al , January 2006
Year: 2006
Assesses the environmental impacts of road run-off including a review of existing practice in road drainage design and maintenance for rural dual carriageways and motorways in Ireland and the assessment of any environmental impacts of such run-off.
Synthesis Report - ERTDI Report 50 - Cruikshanks et al , January 2006
Year: 2006
Evaluates the efficacy of the SDI approach to site designation under Irish conditions. The water chemistry of 257 sites across Ireland were examined during base flow. A further 65 sites were sampled at base and elevated flow and more detailed hydrological events were monitored at a smaller number of sites.
Synthesis Report - ERTDI Report 37 - Davies et al , January 2006
Year: 2006
A synthesis of the findings of the research project Environmental Attitudes and Behaviour: Values, Actions and Waste Management
Final Report - ERTDI 45 - O'Leary et al , January 2006
Year: 2006
A first attempt at generating material flow accounts (MFAs) for Ireland. Identifies methodologies, as well as major data gaps for the future production of such accounts.

A first attempt at generating material flow accounts (MFAs) for Ireland.
ERTDI Report 46 - Special Report - O'Mara, January 2006
Year: 2006
Emission factors for methane from enteric fermentation and manure management were developed for the categories of the Irish cattle herd for which data on animal numbers are available from the Central Statistics Office.
ERTDI Report 47 - Tomlinson, January 2006
Year: 2006
Estimates of baseline inventories of carbon stocks in vegetation (biomass) and in soils. It is essential to know the carbon stores and fluxes (emissions to or fixation from the atmosphere) of land-cover types and land-cover/soil combinations so that policy may be directed.
