Welsh Biochemistry course
Online Biochemistry Course Studying AS/A Level Biology or Chemistry? Take part in the free, first Welsh-medium Online Biochemistry Course developed by Swansea University and the Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol. Start your journey through the world of biochemistry with Elin Rhys and the Swansea University crew. This is a Welsh-medium Biochemistry online course aimed at students aged 16-18 studying AS/A level in Biology or Chemistry. The resource was developed by Swansea University's School of Medicine and the Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol. It can be used as a resource to enhance the teaching of the WJEC Biology and Chemistry specification. Leading us through the course is Elin Rhys. It includes educational videos and cartoons, quizzes, information pages and interviews with leading scientists in their fields of research.

Science Conference 2021 (17/6/21)
The conference aims to showcase leading scientific research by Welsh language scientists and to nurture a Welsh language scientific community. The conference provides a platform to present and discuss various topics within the sciences. The Conference will be conducted in Welsh, and anyone with an interest in science is welcome to register, be they students, academics, members of the public or learners in schools and further education colleges.
Y Meddwl Modern: Darwin – R. Elwyn Hughes
Charles Darwin, ym marn llawer, oedd y biolegydd mwyaf erioed. Ef a fu'n bennaf cyfrifol am gyflwyno i'r byd un o'r syniadau pwysicaf yn holl hanes bioleg – Theori Esblygiad. Disgrifir yn yr e-lyfr hwn sut y daeth i lunio'i ddamcaniaeth enwog am darddiad pethau byw a sut yr ehangodd arni, yng nghwrs ei yrfa, i gofleidio holl weithgareddau dyn ei hun. Trafodir ei le yng ngwyddoniaeth ei gyfnod, a'r ymateb i'w syniadau. Ystyrir hefyd i ba raddau y bu i amgylchiadau personol a chymdeithasol ei gynorthwyo a'i lesteirio yn ei waith.
Y Gwyddonydd – cyfrol 33, 2013
Y Gwyddonydd, Cyfrol 33 – Rhifyn Hanner Canmlwyddiant, 1963-2013 Ymddangosodd Y Gwyddonydd, cyfnodolyn gwyddonol Cymraeg, am y tro cyntaf yn 1963, ac fe'i cyhoeddwyd yn gyson hyd at 1996. I ddathlu'r achlysur fe wnaeth y Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol ariannu a chydlynu rhifyn dathlu arbennig, gan hefyd redeg cystadleuaeth gwyddonydd ifanc. Lansiwyd y rhifyn arbennig yn Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Sir Ddinbych, 2013.
The invasive plant Rhododendron ponticum L.: Its introduction and establishment in Wales, the threat to biodiv...
Rhododendron ponticum L. is an evergreen, woody shrub, belonging to the Ericaceae family. Native to parts of Spain, the Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea coast, it was introduced to Britain in the eighteenth century. It has since developed into one of Britain’s most problematic invasive species, causing ecological and economic damage. This article discusses the history of R. ponticumin Wales, considering the environmental and social factors which have contributed towards its success here. The current situation in Wales is explained, including the damage it causes and the efforts undertaken to manage its spread. To conclude, the paper will evaluate how future environmental challenges will affect R. ponticum’s spread in Wales.

Are small peptides a nutrition source for plant and micro-organisms in the maritime Antarctic?
Nitrogen (N) is the most important element that controls plant growth. During the past twenty years, our understanding of which N species are important for plant growth has developed significantly but it is still thought that large nitrogenous molecules need to be broken down into their constituent amino acids to be available for plant and microbial growth. This paper builds on our understanding of this process and suggests that small peptides are equally important for microbial nutrition and that soil microbes outcompete plants for low molecular weight N compounds in maritime Antarctic soil.
The unique ecology of Ophelia bicornis, Savigny (Polychaeta)
The geographical distribution of Ophelia bicornis is restricted to the coasts of the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea and the western coast of Europe as far as Brittany and southern parts of Great Britain. Within this wide reach, the worm is restricted to very narrow areas (in the context of the rise and fall of the tide) of sand which are generally unsuitable for sustaining populations of animals and plants. Despite this, Ophelia is shown to succeed and flourish there, depending, to a large extent, on physical and physiological adaptation.
