And we're off! Spatial sampling for DOM precursors of trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids and nitrogenous #DBPs begins in #Cork. Our project aims to use #fluorescence #spectroscopy to better understand and predict the formation of #DBPs in drinking water catchments @EPACatchments

Yesterday we resumed field sampling in the #Dripsey catchment. We had low flow conditions and a few roadblocks 🐮🐮🐮

Is that real ale in the river or just #water packed with humic substances🤔

First day in blanket Irish bogs 🇮🇪. Really concerning status with large extensions of exposed peat. I hope our results help to promote the restoration of this amazing blanket bog 🌱 @mapalljohn @NTU_ARES @TCD_Geography #peatlands #ClimateAction #GlobalBlanketBogAssessment

[John Weatherill @DrJJWeatherill]

Low flows, low dissolved oxygen and balmy river temperatures (18-21°C) today in #WestCork for our @PRODOM_UCC sampling round. A challenging environment for fish. Our rivers are particularly vulnerable to point source pollution in these conditions. @EPACatchments @IAH_Ireland

Our new paper on the impact of the 2018 drought on groundwater quality is now available in the Journal of Hydrology.

Been a while since I've been first author on a paper 😄

[The Water Forum - An Fóram Uisce @AnForamUisce]

Water needs to be valued more by all stakeholders and sectors to make sure that deteriorating water quality does not become endemic throughout Ireland @nfgws @swanireland @CorkEnvForum @suelinnane @triona_mcgrath @WatersProgramme

Yesterday we started another round of sampling in the #Dripsey catchment where we have also collected #groundwater samples for our @PRODOM_UCC project 💧 Very excited about the results that we will get 😀

[River Basin Management Service @WatersProgramme]

A fantastic initiative 👏 #ProtectOurSandDunes #EcoSystemServuces
