He has been doing research into the processes of continental shelf sand transport and sand body geometry on continental margins for 40 years and was previously in the Marine Geology Group of the National Institute of Oceanography, Wormley (later Institute of Oceanographic Sciences). Bill Cooper is Head of Modelling at ABP Marine Environmental Research (ABPmer) and lead author of the study examining the potential effects of offshore wind developments on coastal processes. Bill has since been responsible for carrying out coastal process investigations for several of the Round One offshore wind farms, and is also now involved with a number of Round 2 projects.

    - 1 - This paper can be freely cited without prior reference to the authors International Council ICES CM 2007/D:21 for the Exploration Theme Session D: Comparative Marine Ecosystem of the Sea (ICES) Structure and Function: Descriptors and Characteristics Fronts in the World Ocean’s Large Marine Ecosystems Igor M. Belkin and Peter C. Cornillon Abstract. Oceanic fronts shape marine ecosystems; therefore front mapping and characterization is one of the most important aspects of physical oceanography. Here we report on the first effort to map and describe all major fronts in the World Ocean’s Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs). Apart from a geographical review, these fronts are classified according to their origin and physical mechanisms that maintain them. This first-ever zero-order pattern of the LME fronts is based on a unique global frontal data base assembled at the University of Rhode Island. Thermal fronts were automatically derived from 12 years (1985-1996) of twice-daily satellite 9-km resolution global AVHRR SST fields with the Cayula-Cornillon front detection algorithm. These frontal maps serve as guidance in using hydrographic data to explore subsurface thermohaline fronts, whose surface thermal signatures have been mapped from space. Our most recent study of chlorophyll fronts in the Northwest Atlantic from high-resolution 1-km data (Belkin and O’Reilly, 2007) revealed a close spatial association between chlorophyll fronts and SST fronts, suggesting causative links between these two types of fronts.

  • Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View
    37 Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View Kay Muhr In this chapter I will discuss place-name connections between Ulster and Man, beginning with the early appearances of Man in Irish tradition and its association with the mythological realm of Emain Ablach, from the 6th to the I 3th century. 1 A good introduction to the link between Ulster and Manx place-names is to look at Speed's map of Man published in 1605.2 Although the map is much later than the beginning of place-names in the Isle of Man, it does reflect those place-names already well-established 400 years before our time. Moreover the gloriously exaggerated Manx-centric view, showing the island almost filling the Irish sea between Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales, also allows the map to illustrate place-names from the coasts of these lands around. As an island visible from these coasts Man has been influenced by all of them. In Ireland there are Gaelic, Norse and English names - the latter now the dominant language in new place-names, though it was not so in the past. The Gaelic names include the port towns of Knok (now Carrick-) fergus, "Fergus' hill" or "rock", the rock clearly referring to the site of the medieval castle. In 13th-century Scotland Fergus was understood as the king whose migration introduced the Gaelic language. Further south, Dundalk "fort of the small sword" includes the element dun "hill-fort", one of three fortification names common in early Irish place-names, the others being rath "ring­ fort" and lios "enclosure".

  • The Earliest Records of the Lace Family of Kerrowdhoo - Isle of Man
    The Earliest Records of the Lace Family of Kerrowdhoo - Isle of Man The following information comes from research initiated by William Hodgkinson, who also descends from the Kerrowdhoo Lace family. He engaged a noted Manx genealogist to conduct the investigations and has been very generous in sharing his work with others. From “The Family if Arthur Hodgkinson and Doris Catherine Lace” by William Arthur Hodgkinson. The name Lace may belong to pre-christian times and has been likened to a pebble worn down so much that there is nothing but the core left. It's oldest form was MacGuilleychass or MacGilhacosse, which translated from the Manx means "son of a curley-haired youth." Other variations were MacGilhaws, MacGilhast, MacYlhast, McElhast. Finally, it became Laes, Leece and Lace. The Principal centers of the families were in the treens(*Note 1) of Ballaseyr and Guilcagh in the Parish of Kirk Andreas, and Glendown, Ballamin and Cranstal in the adjoining Parish of Kirk Bride. For over 300 years "Lace Kerrowdhoo" was a fixed point in Bride affairs, the list beginning with "Thomas MacGilhast (Lace) and mother" mentioned in a 1515 document from the reign of Henry VIII progressing through a series of Donalds, Williams and Daniels to end with another Thomas Lace in the late nineteenth century. The Parish of Kirk Bride occupies the northern nine square miles or so of the island, the extreme northern portion of which is known as the Ayre Barrens. It is dedicated to St. Bridget, the Abbess of Kildare in Ireland. Kerrowdhoo farmhouse, on the shore road to Portcranstal is about one mile and one-quarter from the village of Bride and one mile and one-half due south of the Point of Ayre, the northernmost point of the island.

Sample selection proved to be important because differences were found in the similarly selected indi• genous Manx population - between donors and non-donors. In addition to a study of phenotype distributions and gene frequencies in the three selected populations, a regional analysis of the Manx data, though on a limited level, was effected.
