Biodiversity Ireland Issue 30 Spring / Summer 2026
We are pleased to release the Spring / Summer 2026 issue of Biodiversity Ireland. Biodiversity Ireland provides an update on some of the work of the National Biodiversity Data Centre
Since its establishment in 2007, the National Biodiversity Data Centre has developed into an essential component of the national heritage infrastructure to make information on Ireland’s biodiversity more accessible for decision-making, to assist engagement by both the public and private sectors with biodiversity and to support the conservation of biological diversity in Ireland. It achieves this through a diverse work programme that is supported by a state-of-the-art bioinformatics infrastructure and a small but dedicated team of staff.
