This research uses data fusion and spatial statistics to combine official and citizen weather data, improving real-time, high-resolution wind forecasts across Ireland. By validating and correcting personal weather stations, the approach reduces uncertainty in renewable energy forecasting and supports efficient grid management toward Ireland’s 2050 net-zero targets.

This research uses neutron scattering — “neutron vision” — to reveal the full structure of complex nanoparticles that X-rays can’t fully resolve. By developing statistical methods to optimise experiment design and analyse data, the project enables clearer structural insights, accelerating the development of advanced materials for energy, medicine and nanotechnology.
