• Understanding future power system challenges with higher renewables and electrification 

  Mehigan, Laura (University College Cork, 2022-01)

  Urgent action to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions is needed to prevent irreversible damage to the world’s climates. An opportunity exists to decarbonise electricity systems and to aid decarbonisation of heat and ...
• Cockle health, disease connectivity and trophic interaction dynamics 

  Albuixech-Martí, Sara (University College Cork, 2021-11-30)

  Parasites and pathogens are an essential part of the community structure, and their transmission and development are affected not only by their host’s immune system and host population density, but also by multiple biological ...
• Developing participatory methods in energy system modelling and planning 

  McGookin, Connor (2022-05-03)

  This thesis seeks to advance the use of participatory methods in energy system modelling and planning. The necessity for such an approach is threefold: firstly to improve energy system models by placing them in a broader ...
• Investigating the natural evolution of a multilevel beach cusp system using UAV photogrammetry and numerical modelling 

  Nuyts, Siegmund (University College Cork, 2021-03-31)

  Identifying the morphodynamic evolution of the swash zone requires the analysis of key coastal processes responsible for its change. Sandy beaches, and the features prevalent on their beachface (e.g., beach cusps), are ...
• The impact of sustainability assessment of renewable gas systems on policy implications and optimum end use 

  Long, Aoife (University College Cork, 2021)

  Ireland has a significant potential resource to decarbonise natural gas through producing green gas for renewable heat and transport. Key resources for anaerobic digestion include food waste, slurry from farming, and grass ...
