Year: 2005
The results from four separate field trials at separate sites covering a range of different subsoil types, whereby two sites were discharging septic tank effluent into conventional percolation areas and the other two were discharging secondary treated effluent from a peat filter into similar percolation areas.
Final Report (2002-W-DS/11-M1)- Irvine et al , January 2005
Year: 2005
Identifies and reviews many situations where mathematical modelling can be a useful tool to assist in the understanding of hydrological and chemical transport and processes that occur in catchments, and the ecological response to anthropogenic alterations that affect them.
Final Report - ERTDI Report 31 - Kelly-Quinn et al , January 2005
Year: 2005
A survey of 50 sites previously classified as high quality by the EPA, to determine whether they were of high ecological status (and thus could be used as reference conditions) and to use these spatial reference sites to develop the river typology for the Water Framework Directive.
Final Report (2000-MS-2-M2)- Tarrant et al , January 2005
Year: 2005
A study that asks whether Irish rivers contain estrogenic compounds. If so, at what concentrations? Are these levels likely to pose a threat to aquatic ecosystems, particularly wild fish? Is there a risk to drinking water supplies?

Final Report (2000-LS-2.2.2-M2) - Nasr et al , January 2005
Year: 2005
Report on the use of modelling non-point phosphorus loss from rural catchments in terms of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) objectives. The study focuses on physically based catchment-scale models which to date have not been applied to model phosphorus losses in Ireland.

Findings of the research project Environmental Attitudes and Behaviour: Values, Actions and Waste Management
Final Report - ERTDI Report 24 - Ó Riain et al , January 2005
Year: 2005
The development of a methodology for identifying water-dependent habitats and hence protected areas with such habitats. It recorded these sites in digital form within a combined database and mapping system and recorded the water-dependent habitats and the species they contain.
ERTDI Report 21 - Bergin et al., May 2004
Year: 2004
Examines the proposal for a tax applied on the carbon content of all forms of energy consumed in Ireland.
ERTDI Report 40 - Scott et al., May 2004
Year: 2004
Analyses the effects of the introduction of a carbon tax in order to see how it would affect different households. The report focuses especially on vulnerable households.
Final Report (2002-W-DS/7-M1) - Buss et al , January 2004
Year: 2004
The principal aim of this project was to develop a methodology for the derivation of the natural background quality for Irish groundwater bodies (it was not the intention to determine the composition of pristine groundwater bodies). International groundwater characterisation methodologies were also reviewed.

Year: 2003
This project on soil P testing questions conventional sample depth, sample pre-treatment, choice of extractant and extract ratios against a background of dissolved reactive P (DRP) and suspended solids (SS) concentrations monitored from the same sample sites.

Year: 2003
Research project to meet the requirements of Environmental Noise Directive. The primary aim of the project is to establish baseline data for Quiet Areas in Ireland.
Synthesis Report - ERTDI Report 16 - Moran et al , January 2003
Year: 2003
Developing a methodology for identifying and undertaking risk assessments of sites where waste disposal or recovery activities have been carried on and implementing the necessary measures to prevent or limit any associated environmental pollution.
