Aoife is the Principal Investigator of the project 'Northern Europe's timber resource - chronology, origin and exploitation' (TIMBER). This project builds a multi-disciplinary team to analyse the material and written evidence for timber usage over six centuries (c. 1100-1700). The region of origin of timber is being analysed using several scientific methods. Some methods are tried and tested, some highly experimental. Identifying the timber source and the timber destination and using high-precision dating that dendrochronology provides, she studies the changes, through time, in the availability and exploitation of this essential resource.
