Aquaculture and Shellfisheries Barry Fox, Director of Aquaculture and Shellfisheries provided the Board with the following report: SMILE Carrying Capacity Model Lough Foyle “The concept of carrying capacity of an ecosystem for natural populations is defined as the maximum standing stock that can be supported by a given ecosystem for a given time.” Water and shellfish sampling has continued in Lough Foyle to help inform this model and assess the drivers of shellfish growth in the Lough. This involves a considerable amount of work to help determine background levels of parameters such as chlorophyll-a, dissolved organic material and nutrient levels. These sampling programmes have commened in October 2013 and will run until October 2015 using concurrent growth monitoring in native oysters, mussels and Pacific oysters to help future predictions of change in the ecosystem based on increased aquaculture production of these species. The model will also allow us to balance the needs of wild species within the Lough with that PREPARED BY S WILSON FEB ‘14 5 of farmed species of shellfish and help mitigate against over-stocking any particular area of the lough with any species. Any negative interactions between the shellfish farms and wild species such as native oyster beds will be addressed and recommendations for buffer zones and sustainable licensing of shellfish farms in the future will be made at the end of the project. The Agency are currently collating a substantial amount of background information in GIS format on the fisheries and aquaculture in Lough Foyle and will be making this available to the modelling team from AFBI/Longline Environemtnal ltd. This information will go towards understanding the ecosystem changes that have taken place in Lough Foyle over the past 10 years and will help with predictions of future ecosystem changes based on current and predicted aqauculture production levels. Some of this work will involve new up to date surveys to be carried out on the Lough on aquaculture operations, wild mussel populations and surveys of other wild filter feeding shellfish such as clams and cockles. Side Scan Trials The Agency have just taken delivery of a side scan survey unit and will be trialling this with BIM in Lough Foyle in the coming weeks.

  • East Inishowen Sea Kayak Trail
    • Kinnagoe Bay East Inishowen Sea Kayak Trail ... paddle by sandy beaches and cliffs, push around headlands, kayak in the shadow of rocky stacks and through caves! LINKS WITH OTHER TRAILS The Foyle Canoe Trail runs from Lifford to Moville with the section from Culmore Point overlapping part of the Inishowen Trail. Stretching over 22 nautical miles from the start of the River Foyle, this unique trail runs along the tidal river, passing through historic Derry city before following Lough Foyle’s varied coastline to the seaside town of Moville. From the northern end of Lough Foyle, seasoned kayakers can link up with the North Coast Sea Kayak Trail, which begins at Magilligan Point only 1.2 km across the Narrows at Greencastle - plan the crossing carefully, taking into account currents and wind, passage of commercial shipping and fi shing boat operations! WILDLIFE The screeches and calls of cliff nesting • Seal on Inishtrahull bird colonies dominate the soundtrack of this rugged coastline. Fulmar and manx shearwater elegantly skim the surface of the water, ‘shearing’ from side to side as they rhythmically alternate white under parts and dark upper body. Diving terns and soaring gannets (from Ailsa Craig in western Scotland) indicate shoals of fi sh near the surface. Keep a special eye out for the white rumped storm petrel, a dainty ocean wanderer, who patters along the wave tops in summer, fl ying ashore on dark nights to their island nest in some stony crevice. Peregrine and buzzard are cliff top predators with the added excitement of regular eagle sightings in recent years.

  • Seafaring and Fishing in Greencastle and Moville, Co Donegal
    SEAFARING Moville & Greencastle There has always been a GREAT HISTORY OF SEAFARING in North-East Inishowen. Boats outside Montgomery Terrace, Moville c.1950 American Liners at Moville c.1950 Nestled on the shore overlooking busy shipping lanes and waters that are traditionally rich with sea life, the towns of Greencastle and Moville have seen many changes over the years, but they have always maintained a strong seafaring community. There have been local services here for many years that have helped to ensure that fishermen can work as safely as possible. Well-built boats, lighthouses and a local Coastguard station are all important features in the local community. This exhibition takes a closer look at these services and their place in the future of seafaring. Patrick Gillespie, Donal O’Sullivan and Brian McDonald contributed the text for this exhibition. This project is supported by the European Union’s European Regional Development Fund, through the EU Programme for Peace and Reconciliation managed for the Special EU Programmes Body by Donegal County Council LIGHTING THE WAY HOME Donal O’Sullivan A man stood at the heavenly gate, His face was scarred and old. He stood before the man of fate, For admission to the fold. ‘What have you done’ St. Peter asked, ‘To gain admission here?’ ‘I’ve been a lighthouse keeper sir, For many a weary year.’ The pearly gates swung open wide, St. Peter rang the bell. ‘Come in and take your seat my son, You’ve had your share of hell.’ Inishtrahull Island, with old Lighthouse site (right) and new lighthouse (left) BY DONAL O’SULLIVAN “My father was a lighthouse keeper, and his father before him was one also.

  • Bibliomara: an Annotated Indexed Bibliography of Cultural and Maritime Heritage Studies of the Coastal Zone in Ireland
    BiblioMara: An annotated indexed bibliography of cultural and maritime heritage studies of the coastal zone in Ireland BiblioMara: Leabharliosta d’ábhar scríofa a bhaineann le cúltúr agus oidhreacht mara na hÉireann (Stage I & II, January 2004) Max Kozachenko1, Helen Rea1, Valerie Cummins1, Clíona O’Carroll2, Pádraig Ó Duinnín3, Jo Good2, David Butler1, Darina Tully3, Éamonn Ó Tuama1, Marie-Annick Desplanques2 & Gearóid Ó Crualaoich 2 1 Coastal and Marine Resources Centre, ERI, UCC 2 Department of Béaloideas, UCC 3 Meitheal Mara, Cork University College Cork Department of Béaloideas Abstract BiblioMara: What is it? BiblioMara is an indexed, annotated bibliography of written material relating to Ireland’s coastal and maritime heritage; that is a list of books, articles, theses and reports with a short account of their content. The index provided at the end of the bibliography allows users to search the bibliography using keywords and authors’ names. The majority of the documents referenced were published after the year 1900. What are ‘written materials relating to Ireland’s coastal heritage’? The BiblioMara bibliography contains material that has been written down which relates to the lives of the people on the coast; today and in the past; their history and language; and the way that the sea has affected their way of life and their imagination. The bibliography attempts to list as many materials as possible that deal with the myriad interactions between people and their maritime surroundings. The island of Ireland and aspects of coastal life are covered, from lobster pot making to the uses of seaweed, from the fate of the Spanish Armada to the future of wave energy, from the sailing schooner fleets of Arklow to the County Down herring girls, from Galway hookers to the songs of Tory Islanders.

  • Donegal: COUNTY GEOLOGY of IRELAND 1
    Donegal: COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND 1 DONEGAL AREA OF COUNTY: 4,841 square kilometres or 1,869 square miles COUNTY TOWN: Lifford OTHER TOWNS: Bundoran, Donegal, Letterkenny, Stranorlar GEOLOGY HIGHLIGHTS: Precambrian metamorphic rocks, granites, Lower Carboniferous sandstones and limestones, building materials AGE OF ROCKS: Precambrian; Devonian to Carboniferous Malin Head Precambrian metamorphic schists and quartzite at Malin Head. In the distance is Inishtrahull, composed of the oldest rocks in Ireland. 2 COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND: Donegal Geological Map of County Donegal Pale Purple: Precambrian Dalradian rocks; Bright blue: Precambrian Gneiss and Schists; Pale yellow: Precambrian Quartzite; Red: Granite; Beige:Beige:Beige: Devonian sandstones; Dark blue: Lower Carboniferous sandstones; Light blue: Lower Carboniferous limestone. Geological history The geology of Co. Donegal most closely resembles that of Co. Mayo, and the county contains the oldest rocks in Ireland, around 1780 million years old, exposed on the offshore island of Inishtrahull. 1000 million years ago [Ma] sediments were deposited in an ocean and an Ice Age that affected the Earth at this time produced glacial till of cobbles of rock set in a matrix of crushed rock. Between 470 and 395 Ma the whole area was subjected to a mountain- building event called the Caledonian Orogeny and the rocks were metamorphosed or altered into gneiss, schists and quartzites now known as the Dalradian Group. Errigal Mountain is composed of this quartzite which weathers to a 'sugarloaf' shape. The metamorphosed glacial deposits are called Tillites. In the late phase of the orogeny two continents collided and the north-east to south-west trend of the rocks in Donegal was produced.
