Methods to estimate soil carbon stocks and changes in Northern Ireland in relation to land cover change over the periods 1939–2000, 1939–1990 and 1990–2000 are described. Land cover for 1939 was derived from the Land Utilisation Survey and for

The CORINE land cover database for Ireland (in ARC/INFO) is used to estimate the amount of carbon stored (tonnes) by each land-cover (vegetation) type. Carbon store is the area of each CORINE land-cover type multiplied by its carbon density (t C ha

Northern Ireland has a tradition of peat cutting; 78 per cent by area of remaining lowland bogs and 46 per cent of blanket bogs have been cut in the past. Since the early 1980s, machine peat extraction for fuel and horticulture has increased, against

The soil carbon (C) stock of the Republic of Ireland is estimated to have been 2048 Mt in 1990 and 2021 Mt in 2000. Peat holds around 53% of the soil C stock, but on 17% of the land area. The C density of soils (t C ha −1 ) is mapped at 2 km×2 km

For noise exposure varying in both level and duration, current noise criteria are inadequate but, by adapting methods presently available, an equivalent continuous level can be calculated from which the risk to hearing can be assessed. The predicted

Reasons for the use of physiological methods of assessment in addition to classical work study methods are given for the case of manual work. A study of use of both assessment processes with regard to a series of forestry tasks is presented. Poor cor

This study comprised three phases: an industrial survey of press design and operation; a shopfloor evaluation of performance with a modified press and its comparison with the original design; and a laboratory simulation of the effects of three of the
