Research at the MFRC
There is a diverse range of research being conducted at the Marine and Freshwater Cenre in ATU focusing on sustainability, biodiversity and productivity. From sea, to freshwater and land habitats, animals such as crustaceans, fish, marine mammals and birds are being studied using an array of methodologies.
Season 1 of "Join the Pod":
Marine Mammal Research for Conservation
This first series will introduce you to some of the diverse marine mammal life in Irish waters.
Engaging with the community is a crucial step towards ocean preservation. Here, we want to break the scientific wall and showcase the marine mammal research being conducted in ATU and how it can inform conservation action. As the series progresses, we hope to broaden this perspective to include research being done by our colleagues internationally.
