Proteins mediate and perform various fundamental functions of life. This versatility of protein function is an attribute of its 3D structure. In recent years, our understanding of protein 3D structure has been complemented with advances in computational and mathematical tools for protein modelling and protein design. 3D molecular visualisation is an essential part in every protein design and protein modelling workflow. Over the years, stand-alone and web-based molecular visualisation tools have been used to emulate three-dimensional view on computers. The advent of virtual reality provided the scope for immersive control of molecular visualisation. While these technologies have significantly improved our …


Sediment And Nutrient Behaviour On The River Bandon, Ireland, S. T. Harrington, Joseph R. Harrington Jan 2013

Sediment And Nutrient Behaviour On The River Bandon, Ireland, S. T. Harrington, Joseph R. Harrington

Conference Papers

This paper presents aspects of sediment and nutrient behaviour on the River Bandon which is located in the South Western River Basin District in Ireland; it is a relatively large sized river catchment in an Irish context with a catchment area of 608 km2. The river catchment is primarily agricultural with some pockets of urban development. The river is prone to flooding on stretches, features a number of special areas of conservation and is distinguished by both suspended and bed load transport. Continuous monitoring of turbidity commenced in February 2010. Manual sampling and testing for suspended sediment concentration and a …
