Research Poster - A Comparison of the Carbon Sequestration Potential of Vegetation Types in an Irish Salt Marsh
In the summer of 2021 I completed a field based research project in which I compared the carbon sequestration potential of vegetation types in an Irish salt marsh. The end result was that the invasive species spartina anglica sequestered the most carbon due to it covering the largest area.

I'm an environmental scientist from Dublin, Ireland. My primary interest is in vegetation-climate interactions, feedbacks and tipping points and vegetation resilience to climate change. I have developed skills in and an understanding of global dynamic vegetation models, while carrying out an internship at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry. There I assisted with the integration of new plant hydraulics module into the DGVM QUINCY. I intend to develop foundational skills in machine learning with the aim to integrate remote sensing, machine learning and DGVM's.
