A comprehensive review of the perception of climate change adaptation was undertaken within the natural heritage directorate (NHD) of the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA).

A survey representing the second of a three phase survey to establish the extent of cord-grass invasion (Spartina Anglica) and colonization throughout Northern Ireland

Recent technology has progressed to the stage where satellite tags with solar panels are now small enough to be fitted to birds such as hen harriers.

Habitat degradation, deteriorating water quality, pearl fishing and a decline in the abundance of salmonids, (which host immature stages) have contributed to the widespread decline of Margaritifera margaritifera.

Captive breeding programs are advocated as key to the long-term favourable conservation status of the freshwater bivalve, margaritifera margaritifera and its reintroduction.

Ex-situ conservation involving captive breeding for the reintroduction of species facing global, regional or local extinction is a measure of last resort.
