Title: PhD Student
E-mail: gartont@tcd.ie
Address: Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies, School of Cosmic Physics, Astronomy and Astrophysics Section, 31 Fitzwilliam Place, Dublin 2, D02 XF86, Ireland
Biography: Tadhg’s research interests are focused on the space weather link between the Sun and the Earth. After finishing an undergraduate degree in Physics and Astrophysics, Tadhg began work on a coronal hole segmentation algorithm named ‘CHIMERA’, which identifies and extracts coronal hole boundaries and properties. This algorithm is run real-time on the solarmonitor.org/chimera website. Following this algorithm, Tadhg has focused his work on linking the properties of these solar coronal holes with the properties of the solar wind to build a predictive model for recurring space weather storms.

The DIAS School of Cosmic Physics is delighted to announce that Dr Duygu Kiyan has been appointed a Schrödinger Fellow in Geophysics. ➡️dias.ie/2020/01/21/dr-… @dias_geophysics #DIASdiscovers
DYK: @dias_geophysics was at @BTYSTE in the @TheRDS in early Jan twitter.com/dias_geophysic…
#OTD in 2019 @mitchelloconnor unveiled a portrait of Dr Sheila Tinney here at DIAS. Dr Tinney was appointed the first ever female fellow at DIAS and later became a Research Associate at the Institute’s School of Theoretical Physics. Today also marks her birthday 🎂 #DIASdiscovers
Busy start to the week: An international team led by scientists from DIAS has discovered that large portions of the tectonic plate, or lithosphere, beneath Africa have disappeared over the past 200 million years More ➡️ dias.ie/2020/01/13/dia… @dias_geophysics #DIASdiscovers
An interesting story that includes one of the first ever DIAS staff members. #DIASdiscovers twitter.com/IrishTimesBook…
This week we took a look back at DIAS' significant achievements over the decade from 2010 to 2019. Learn More ➡️ dias.ie/2020/01/09/dia… #DIASdiscovers
