Geneticists discover new wild goat subspecies via ancient DNA
Geneticists from Trinity, together with a team of international collaborators, have discovered a previously unknown lineage of wild goats over ten millennia old. The new goat type, discovered from genetic screening of bone remains and referred to as “the Taurasian tur”, likely survived the Last Glacial Maximum (the ice age), which stranded their ancestors in the high peaks of the Taurus Mountains in Turkey where their remains were found.

Fishing for sharks: hot or not?
New research from marine scientists raises potential red flags for sharks that are caught and released by anglers. The team has discovered that the ocean’s iconic predators typically spike temperatures after they have been caught, which may have physiological and behavioural impacts.

Science and art collide to open eyes and minds to impact of climate change on storm surge levels around Irish coastline
The Línte na Farraige project’s visual light installations, by Finnish artists Timo Aho and Pekka Niittyvirta, indicate the projected rise in sea levels from future storm surges. Installations will open at Spanish Arch, Galway, and will be followed by other coastal locations in the coming months.

The synthetic rocks helping us understand how sought-after rare earth elements form
Researchers from Trinity have shed new light on the formation of increasingly precious rare earth elements (REEs) by creating synthetic rocks and testing their responses to varying environmental conditions. REEs are used in electronic devices and green energy technologies, from smartphones to e-cars.
