Site selection was carried out using the Forest Inventory Planning System 1998 (FIPS) and local knowledge. Surveys comprised the recording of site species lists and information at the site level on topography, management, grazing, natural regeneration, geographical situation, adjacent habitat types, invasive species, dead wood and boundaries. Relevés were recorded in each of the main stand types identified at each site. For each relevé, data were recorded on vascular plant and bryophyte cover abundance, soil type and soil chemistry, notable lichens, stand structure, and natural regeneration. Data were also incorporated from a number of external sources. This resulted in a database with data from 1,320 sites and 1,667 relevés. The relevé dataset was analysed using hierarchical clustering and indicator species analysis. Four major woodland groups were defined: Quercus petraea – Luzula sylvatica (260 relevés), Fraxinus excelsior – Hedera helix (740 relevés), Alnus glutinosa – Filipendula ulmaria (296 relevés) and Betula pubescens – Molinia caerulea (371 relevés). Further analysis of the dataset divided these four groups into twenty-two vegetation types. For each vegetation type a synoptic table of the floristic data was produced, together with a list of key indicator species, a list of example sites, summary environmental and stand structure data and a distribution map.

  • Irlands Langer Weg Vom Kolonialismus Zur Unabhängigkeit
    Motiv: Dáil Bar © Ireland‘s Content Pool Irlands langer Weg vom Kolonialismus zur Unabhängigkeit Eine ganz ungewöhnliche Studienreise Donnerstag, 14.05.2020 - Donnerstag, 21.05.2020 veranstaltet vom Europäischen Bildungs- und Begegnungszentrum Irland in Zusammenarbeit mit der VHS Hagen und Arbeit und Leben DGB/VHS Regionalbüro Berg-Mark Diese Reise wird nicht nur erstmalige Irlandreisende erfreuen, sondern auch unsere „Wiederholungstäter*innen“ verblüffen. Denn diesmal wollen wir uns in eher selten be- suchte Regionen Irlands begeben und dabei immer wieder einen Blick auf die Abhängigkeit von England in der irischen Geschichte werfen: Zum einen in den Südosten der „Grünen Insel“, und zwar v.a. in die überraschend abwechslungsreichen Grafschaften Wexford und Waterford, die eng mit der Besetzung durch die Anglonormannen in der irischen Geschichte verbunden sind; und dann auch in den wunderbaren äußersten Südwesten Irlands, nämlich nach West Cork, in dem wir den Versuchen der Iren nachgehen, sich von der englischen Unterdrückung zu befreien. Die landschaftliche Vielfalt und die vielen langen Küstenstreifen der südirischen Atlantikküste, aber auch so manches kunsthistorische Kleinod und mancher Garten, die auch den englischen Herrschaftsanspruch dokumentieren, werden sie begeis- tern! Und selbstverständlich werden wir auch Gelegenheit zum Pub-Besuch und dem Erle- ben irischer traditioneller Musik haben! Das Programm (Änderungen vorbehalten) Tag 1: Donnerstag, 14.05.2020: Flug nach Irland - Powerscourt Garden - Wexford Flug von Düsseldorf nach Dublin. Wir fahren um Dublin herum in südliche Richtung und machen einen farbenfrohen Halt in der Nähe von Enniskerry: Der Powerscourt Garden and Estate, der ins 18. Jh. zurückreicht, ge- hört zu den bedeutendsten und schönsten in Großbritannien und Irland! Formale Gärten, stufenförmige Terrassen, ein wunderbarer See und japanischer Garten, uvm.

  • Who Was Who in Early Modern Limerick by Alan O'driscoll and Brian Hodkinson
    Who Was Who in Early Modern Limerick By Alan O'Driscoll and Brian Hodkinson The following was commenced by Alan O’Driscoll (AOD) while on a work placement in Limerick Museum in the autumn of 2012 and continued by Brian Hodkinson. It is a continuation of the Who was who in medieval Limerick, which can also be found on the Limerick Museum website. It straddles the period c 1540 to c 1700, so some figures may appear in both databases. It is compiled for the most part by using the indexes of the various sources using Limerick as the search term. However, it has been noted that these indexes are often not comprehensive, and so when sources are available online, then a scroll through the text highlighting Limerick has produced entries not in the index. Such scrolling has also found entries where place names are abviously Limerick ones but Limerick does not appear as a word, e.g. in Fiants and CPCRCI. So while I (BJH) like to think it is comprehensive, it may not be. Notes. • Where two similar names are believed to be the same person, the entries are combined. However, many repeated names appear in the same lists (particularly in the Civil Survey). Where this occurs and/or the two persons are listed as coming from a different location, they are separated, even if they are recorded at the same time. There are a great many repeated full names, such as William Bourke, and it has proved practically impossible to be sure of which of these are different people.

  • Sustainable Management of Tourist Attractions in Ireland: the Development of a Generic Sustainable Management Checklist
    SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF TOURIST ATTRACTIONS IN IRELAND: THE DEVELOPMENT OF A GENERIC SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT CHECKLIST By Caroline Gildea Supervised by Dr. James Hanrahan A dissertation submitted to the School of Business and Humanities, Institute of Technology, Sligo in fulfilment of the requirements of a Master of Arts (Research) June 2012 1 Declaration Declaration of ownership: I declare that this thesis is all my own work and that all sources used have been acknowledged. Signed: Date: 2 Abstract This thesis centres on the analysis of the sustainable management of visitor attractions in Ireland and the development of a tool to aid attraction managers to becoming sustainable tourism businesses. Attractions can be the focal point of a destination and it is important that they are sustainably managed to maintain future business. Fáilte Ireland has written an overview of the attractions sector in Ireland and discussed how they would drive best practice in the sector. However, there have still not been any sustainable management guidelines from Fáilte Ireland for tourist attractions in Ireland. The principal aims of this research was to assess tourism attractions in terms of water, energy, waste/recycling, monitoring, training, transportation, biodiversity, social/cultural sustainable management and economic sustainable management. A sustainable management checklist was then developed to aid attraction managers to sustainability within their attractions, thus saving money and the environment. Findings from this research concluded that tourism attractions in Ireland are not sustainably managed and there are no guidelines, training or funding in place to support these attraction managers in the transition to sustainability. Managers of attractions are not aware or knowledgeable enough in the area of sustainability.
