In terms of time scale in geology, Quaternary is the present-day time and it began 2.6 million years ago. A lot of this time period relates to the Ice Age. Quaternary Geomorphology shows features left on the earth’s surface during this time. Glaciers and ice sheets, which are...

The term Physiography can be described as a blending of “physical" and "geography". Physiographic Units show Ireland’s physical landscape divided into categories such as ‘Bedrock plain’ and ‘Flat to undulating sediments’. Areas are grouped based on bedrock geology (solid rock...

Bedrock is the solid rock at or below the land surface. Over much of Ireland, the bedrock is covered by materials such as soil and gravel. The Bedrock map shows what the land surface of Ireland would be made up of if these materials were removed. As the bedrock is commonly...

OSPAR Common Indicator BH3 – Extent of Physical Damage to Predominant and Species Habitat (D6-C2)...Marine InstituteTimpeallachtBH3 is currently limited to pressure caused by abrasion on the seafloor from mobile bottom contacting fishing gear (trawling). Pressure from other activities is in development. The scale of disturbance on the seafloor is a product of the habitats sensitivity and exposure to a...

OSPAR Common Indicator BH3 – Extent of Physical Damage to Predominant and Species Habitat (D6-C2)...Marine InstituteTimpeallachtThe sensitivity of benthic ecosystem components is determined by their resistance (ability to tolerate disturbance or stress) and resilience (time required to recover). Resistance of a species or habitat can be assessed using a scale and illustrates a species or habitats...
