Atmospheric ice nucleating particles - is there a fingerprint of past changes in polar snow and ice?

British Antarctic Survey
Polar Science for Planet Earth

Dr M Frey, Dr A Kirchgaessner

Application Deadline: 7 January 2019

BACKGROUND. Cloud droplets freeze homogeneously at temperatures below -37ºC, but the presence of ice nucleating particles (INP) can induce freezing at much higher temperatures.

Re-thinking insect adaptation to Antarctica’s extreme environments

University of Birmingham
NERC Doctoral Training Centre Studentships with CENTA

Dr S Hayward, Dr L Orsini, Prof J Colbourne

Application Deadline: 21 January 2019

Antarctica has been isolated from the other Southern Hemisphere continents for at least 28 million years (Myr). Model reconstructions of the last glacial maximum (LGM ~20 000 years BP) suggest that all low-lying coastal areas on Antarctica, and many sub-Antarctic islands were completely covered by ice.

Seasonal variability of Southern Ocean CO2 Uptake : A ‘Top-down’ Assessment (SUNTHARALINGAMUENV19ARIES)

University of East Anglia
School of Environmental Sciences

Dr P Suntharalingam, Dr A Jones

Application Deadline: 8 January 2019

The Southern Ocean plays a fundamental role in regulating global climate through uptake of heat and atmospheric carbon-dioxide (CO2), and removes ~40% of atmospheric CO2 derived from human activity.
