Ports play a significant socioeconomic role at local, national, and international scales, but their inclusion in PPGIS has been relatively understudied compared to other planning sectors. The aims of this study were to create an archive of port community perceptions through a mixed-methods PPGIS approach, expose PPGIS as a tool to explore novel spatial patterns in these perceptions, and highlight the potential of PPGIS to enhance understandings of the relationship between communities and port-related changes. The research uncovered five spatial patterns in community perceptions: a link between effects on recreation, public health, and the environment; a harbour with a diversely connected west side and an isolated east side; recreational value and a sense of place as the most common place values, and recreational, historic, and religious values as the most common meaningful place values; widespread negative sentiments towards the Port of Cork; and specific negative concerns in response to the planning process. These patterns had several theoretical implications and produced the following practical recommendations for port and planning authorities: incorporating recreational and public health impacts into Environmental Impact Assessments; creating tailored community engagement approaches for affected port communities; promoting links between communities; and adopting a PPGIS approach to community engagement.","PeriodicalId":35618,"journal":{"name":"Irish Geography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48927186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cluster was ultimately linked to a novel coronavirus. Although initially limited to China, the virus began to spread into neighbouring Asian countries in January 2020. By the end of January, cases had been detected in 22 countries, including five in Europe. By the end of February, infections were reported in 59 countries and the first case in Ireland was reported on 29 February 2020 (Health Protection Surveillance Centre, 2020). The response to the virus was limited at first, prompting the WHO to declare on 11 March that COVID-19 could be characterized as a pandemic (World Health Organization, 2020a). Many countries adopted a range of control measures to reduce transmission of the virus. Measures included increased hand washing, social distancing and temporary closure of businesses. In Ireland, the National Public Health Emergency Team (NPHET) was established in January 2020 to oversee and provide direction and expert advice across the health service and the wider public service, on the national response to COVID-19. The Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) is an independent authority established to drive high-quality and safe care for people using our health and social care services in Ireland. HIQA has a wide-ranging mandate to develop standards, inspect and review health and social care services and support informed decisions on how services are delivered. In relation to the COVID-19 epidemic, HIQA has provided evidence synthesis to support the NPHET and its associated groups.","PeriodicalId":35618,"journal":{"name":"Irish Geography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41919218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

McCarthy","doi":"10.2014/IGJ.V53I2.1421","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2014/IGJ.V53I2.1421","url":null,"abstract":"To get a more accurate picture of the significance of Covid-19 mortality in Dublin, a study was conducted to analyse notices posted in 2020 to RIP.ie relative to the previous five years. Examining monthly notices posted to RIP.ie relative to previous years also helped identify those parts of the city most affected by the disease in terms of excess mortality during the pandemic. From examination of factors that may affect levels of Covid-related mortality in Dublin, the authors have quantitatively established that social inequalities that persist throughout districts in Dublin have a statistically significant influence on mortality levels related to Covid-19. The significant relationship that exists between Covid-related mortality and area deprivation confirms that Covid-19 has differential impacts on Dublin's population depending on residential location. This suggests that approaches to combat the impacts of Covid-19 in Dublin should take into consideration the socio-economic dynamics that exist throughout the county's four authorities. One fundamental problem is that restrictions set up to effectively avoid contracting the virus automatically shield the portion of population that are socially and economically more privileged. Yet the remainder of the population that reside in more deprived districts, who are less able to adapt to restrictions, are disregarded and more likely to be seriously impacted by the effects of the virus. An additional caveat is that usage of rip.ie amongst migrant communities is not widespread and they may not be fully represented. For one worker with a stable, well-paying job, restrictions may mean working from home and being protected from the virus. For another worker, restrictions may not provide such security and they may face the choice of going to work, and increasing their risk of contracting the virus, or staying at home and sacrificing their income.","PeriodicalId":35618,"journal":{"name":"Irish Geography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42934851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The top three most common outdoor spaces that children use and have access to are back gardens (26.6%), front gardens (20.1%) and communal green areas (14.18%). It is noticeable that the outdoor play spaces are in very close geographical proximity to the home. Almost 7 out of 10 respondents with a front or back garden say they have fixed play equipment. This number decreased as the children got chronologically older. Only 4.9% of respondents live in an apartment and 69.8% have access to outdoor space for playing and hanging out. Clearly children and adolescents living in apartments were more severely affected in relation to the availability of outdoor play and hanging out spaces and places. This short paper only briefly addresses a small section of the study's research findings that impact on children and adolescents use of outdoor space during the lockdown period of COVID-19 and it is hoped that a more detailed and wider discussion will be forthcoming. The humble, ordinary, mundane back garden was portrayed by children, adolescents and parents as a classroom, playground, socializing space, garden and allotment, sports pitch, family play space, hobby room, exercise space and eating area.","PeriodicalId":35618,"journal":{"name":"Irish Geography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45129956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Historically, Ireland has only being monitoring the health of our coastal dunes very intermittently. This research reviews published coastal dune inventories in Ireland (Kinahan and McHenry, 1882; Young, 1977; Curtis, 1991; Quigley, 1991; Ryle et al., 2009; Delaney et al., 2013) and uses one of the most current inventories (Coastal Monitoring Project 2004-2006 in Ryle et al., 2009) to map the current distribution of dunes in thirteen coastal counties in the Republic of Ireland and assess the vulnerability of these dune ecosystems to projected changes in storminess. The CMP Report data was downloaded into a GIS and a filter query was applied to identify the dune area extent in each county and isolate the three major dune categories (Fixed, Embryonic and Mobile) which are critical for beach-dune sediment budgets via sediment exchange processes. The polygon features for each dune category (a total of 179) were designated a shoreline orientation based on the cardinal and ordinal wind directions. Counties Donegal (36%), Mayo (24%) and Kerry (14%) contain 74% of the total dune area in Ireland (c.76sq. km). Fixed dunes comprise 93% of the total dune area of interest in this study; mobile (5%) and embryonic (2%) dunes have a much smaller areal extent. The severity of the impacts from storms depends not only on the character (size, duration, direction) of the extremes but also on the exposure and vulnerability of coastal ecosystems and communities to these extremes.","PeriodicalId":35618,"journal":{"name":"Irish Geography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48260011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
