Consequently in order to determine the long-term run-off from each of the catchments at the possible discharge points, an average annual rainfall of 1336mm is assumed. This is the average rainfall on the Feale catchment, which is the closest catchment to the River Tyshe with recorded data. The catchment lies in Hydrometric Area 23 in which the estimated annual losses due to evapo-transpiration are 490mm. Thus, the average annual run-off is 1336 – 490 = 846mm/annum, which is equivalent to an average daily flow (ADF) (846 x 1.0 x 106) (1000 x 365.25) = 2,316 m3/d/km2 (0.027 l/s/km2) of catchment area. In the absence of recorded river dry weather and 95 percentile flow data, it is necessary to attempt to calculate what the flows might be for the River Tyshe using the estimated average daily flow.

Irish Rare Bird Report 2014
Irish Rare Bird Report 2014 M. Carmody and J. Hobbs (on behalf of the Irish Rare Birds Committee) BirdWatch Ireland, Unit 20, Block D, Bullford Business Campus, Kilcoole, Co. Wicklow Introduction Palearctic away from the Azores. Ireland’s second Pacific Diver Gavia pacifica (Galway) and third Sardinian Warbler Sylvia The year under review was the classic year of two halves. The melanocephala (Cork) were recorded in April and the fourth first half was one of the most exciting starts to a year in recent records of Red-flanked Bluetail Tarsiger cyanurus (Mayo) and times, whereas the latter half was far more pedestrian. In line American Coot Fulica americana (Kerry) were recorded in with that, both additions to the Irish list in 2014 were during October and November respectively. Also, this report contains the first six months, with an American Purple Gallinule details of the second Little Swift Apus affinis from Wexford in Porphyrio martinicus found dead in Mayo and, less than a May 2002 and the fourth Thrush Nightingale Luscinia luscinia week later, a Slaty-backed Gull Larus schistisagus in Galway, from Cork in October 2013. Significant records of sub-species both of these in February. Undoubtedly, though, the most in the report are of the first Eastern Subalpine Warbler Sylvia significant record of the year was a Bermuda Petrel cantillans albistriata from Mayo in 2007 and the first Yellow Pterodroma cahow , which is categorised as an ‘At sea’ record as it was observed some 170 nautical miles west of Ireland, a location that lies outside the boundary of the Irish List.

Baseball Ireland Tours New England Baseball Ireland is a 21-year-old organization that has taken America’s pastime and spread it widely around the Emerald Isle in three active divisions – adult, youth, and cadet. There are ten teams in the league, seven of them in Dublin with the others playing out of Belfast and Wicklow. Last month, a team made up of adult players and another full of Little Leaguers, took their gloves and balls to New England where they toured across three states over the last two weeks, with a stop on Sunday the 25th at Cunningham Park in Milton where the Irish Nationals played an exhibition against players from the regional Yawkey League in front of an enthusiastic gathering of fans, friends, and neighbors. The Irish squads spent most of their time play- ing at sites in Rhode Island, but they found time for games in Brockton (July 18) and Connecticut (July 23).

Tralee Feale Catchment Assessment 2010 - 2015 (HA 23)
Tralee Feale Catchment Assessment 2010 - 2015 (HA 23) Catchment Science & Management Unit Environmental Protection Agency December 2018 Version no. 3 Preface This document provides a summary of the characterisation outcomes for the water resources of the Tralee Feale Catchment, which have been compiled and assessed by the EPA, with the assistance of local authorities and RPS consultants. The information presented includes status and risk categories of all water bodies, details on protected areas, significant issues, significant pressures, load reduction assessments, recommendations on future investigative assessments, areas for actions and environmental objectives. The characterisation assessments are based on information available to the end of 2015. Additional, more detailed characterisation information is available to public bodies on the EPA WFD Application via the EDEN portal, and more widely on the catchments.ie website. The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of the situation in the catchment and help inform further action and analysis of appropriate measures and management strategies. This document is supported by, and can be read in conjunction with, a series of other documents which provide explanations of the elements it contains: 1. An explanatory document setting out the full characterisation process, including water body, subcatchment and catchment characterisation. 2. The Final River Basin Management Plan, which can be accessed on: www.catchments.ie. 3. A published paper on Source Load Apportionment Modelling, which can be accessed at: http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.3318/bioe.2016.22 4.
