  NERC Panorama Doctoral Training Partnership - The ecological functioning of the Antarctic benthos: vulnerability to climate change
University of Hull School of Environmental Sciences
  Dr C Waller
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Climate models show that the effects of climate change, e.g. sea surface temperature increase and ocean acidification, will be most intense at the poles.

  Antarctic climate history at the onset of glaciation: Was there ice in the greenhouse?
University of Southampton Ocean and Earth Science
  Dr S Bohaty, Dr CD Hillenbrand, Dr R Boardman, Prof P Wilson
Application Deadline: 4 January 2019
Programme website. http://inspire-dtp.ac.uk. Project Rationale. During the extremely warm global ’greenhouse’ period ~50 million years ago, Antarctica was mostly ice free and hosted temperate forests.

  Deep, dark and dynamic: Converted-wave seismology to explore the physical properties of Antarctic glacier ice
University of Leeds School of Earth & Environment
  Dr A Booth, Dr R Clark
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Could you be converted to glacier seismology?! Join our group at Leeds’ School of Earth and Environment, collaborating with the British Antarctic Survey, to apply seismic methods - from field survey through to interpretation - to some of the most pressing issues in glaciology today! Full project description here.

  Proglacial landscape evolution across the Antarctic Peninsula with Holocene climate change
University of Leeds School of Geography
  Dr J Carrivick, Dr D Quincey
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
The ice sheet margin around the Antarctic Peninsula receded rapidly from its Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) position on the continental shelf edge ~ 18 ka (Davies et al., 2012) to a position towards the head of fjords, and in some cases onto land.

  Trends in Antarctic sea ice from satellite observations
University of Leeds School of Earth & Environment
  Prof A Shepherd, Dr I Brooks
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Sea ice is a key component of the global climate system, because it plays a significant role in Earth’s heat and freshwater balance, and because it is a sensitive indicator of environmental change.

  The role of Antarctic sea ice in glacial-interglacial climatic transitions
University of Southampton Ocean and Earth Science
  Dr Louise Sime, Dr A Marzocchi
Application Deadline: 4 January 2019
Project Rationale. Since the onset of the Northern Hemisphere glaciation, Earth’s climate has undergone large transitions between cold “glacial” and warm “interglacial” stages.
