Biography
I am currently a Research Assistant on the EPA-funded ClimAg project.
ClimAg seeks to identify the multifactorial drivers of fodder crises by:
- developing a detailed understanding of the multiple interlinked drivers of previous fodder crises affecting the Irish agricultural sector
- combining datasets from 21st century climate simulations with grass growth models to predict the frequency and severity of fodder crisis events under future climate change scenarios
