Plant Ecophysiology

We address these issues at different spatial and temporal scales including glasshouse, growth chamber, mesocosm and ecosystem scale experiments. We use a range of analytical techniques including infra-red gas analysis, chlorophyll fluorescence, chromatography, stable isotope assessment, eddy covariance, remote sensing, LCA, biogeochemical modelling and meta-analysis. Our group collaborates with national and internationally funded institutes, universities and stakeholders, and is funded by the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, the Irish Research Council and the European Union Framework Programmes.
