Project
His project, Aggregate potential of Irish south coast offshore palaeovalleys (AggrePOP) aims to delimit and quantify (resource location, thickness and quality) marine aggregate resources off the south coast of Ireland. Adding to this, the project also aims to develop generic models of offshore multiphase palaeovalleys to better predict aggregate occurrences in similar marine realms respectively.
