Cyfle PhD

Mae Prifysgol Caerdydd wedi sicrhau cyllid ar gyfer efrydiaeth PhD sy'n archwilio gwella bioamrywiaeth drwy'r system gynllunio. Bydd hwn yn brosiect mewn partneriaeth â Chyfarwyddiaeth Cynllunio Cymru. Mae gan y prosiect y potensial i gymharu ymwahaniad dulliau Cymraeg a Saesneg i ddeall y ffactorau gwleidyddol a sefydliadol sydd wedi llunio'r rhain a sut mae'r rhain yn dylanwadu ar ganlyniadau ecolegol mewn mannau lleol.

Ymgynghoriad Perygl Llifogydd

Mae Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru yn lansio ymgynghoriad ar eu blaenoriaethau a’u camau gweithredu wrth reoli’r perygl o lifogydd yng Nghymru dros y chwe blynedd nesaf, a bydd yn rhedeg tan ddydd Mercher, Mai 24ain. I edrych ar ddrafft o’r Cynllun Rheoli Llifogydd ac i gymryd lle ewch i Flood Risk Management Plan for Wales - Natural Resources Wales Citizen Space - Citizen Space (cyfoethnaturiol.cymru)

Cyrraedd Coed Tamsin:

• Dilynwch ffordd Pontarfynach (A1420) o Southgate am tua 3 km i Moriah.
• Yn syth wrth adael Moriah, ar droad ysgubol ar y chwith, fforch DDE ar lôn trwy borth llydan-agored. (Mae byngalo mewn gardd fawr ar y chwith i'r lôn a choed ffawydd tal ar y dde).
• Ewch yn eich blaen ar hyd y lôn am tua 400m,
• Ewch yn syth heibio dau dreif ar y chwith i adeiladau'r Fferm Gartref, yna i lawr dip gyda thŷ modern (Fountains) ar y dde,
• Gyrru 100m arall i gloch-geg lydan ar ochr chwith gyda lle parcio ar gyfer tua deg car. Nid Coed Tamsin yw hwn! 
• Parhau i lawr inclein serth i ddiwedd y lôn darmac, yna parhewch yn ofalus yn syth ar hyd 50 metr heb ei wynebu i borth llydan ar ochr chwith.
• Digon o le i barcio. Mae'r 50m diwethaf ychydig yn arw ond yn hylaw i geir arferol. Mae Bob yn argymell cadw at un ochr o'r trac gan fod cefnen yng nghanol yr adran hon. 
• Gall unrhyw un sydd â char chwaraeon stopio yn y man parcio cynharach yna cerdded, gyda diolch i Roger a Judith Bray am y caniatâd hwn.

Directions to Coed Tamsin:

• From Aber take the Devils Bridge road (A1420) from Southgate for about 3 km to Moriah.
• Immediately on leaving Moriah, on a sweeping left-hand bend, fork RIGHT onto a lane through a wide-open gateway. (There is a bungalow in a large garden on the left of the lane and tall beech trees on the right).
• Continue along the lane for about 400m,
• Go straight past two driveways on the left to the Home Farm buildings, then down a dip with a modern house (Fountains) on the right,
• Drive another 100m to a wide bell-mouth on left-hand side with parking space for about ten cars. This is not Coed Tamsin! 
• Continue down a steep incline to the end of the tarmac lane, then continue carefully straight on along an unsurfaced 50 metres to a wide gateway on left-hand side.
• Plenty of space to park.The last 50m are a bit rough but manageable for normal cars. Bob recommends keeping to one side of the track as there is a ridge in the middle of this section. 
• Anyone with low slung sports car can stop at the earlier parking space then walk, with thanks to Roger and Judith Bray for this permission.
