There is a concern that degraded peatlands may significantly exacerbate anthropogenic climate change through release of CO. 2. from soils (Hooijer et al, 2010). Read more
Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere.

Whilst blanket bogs are of limited spatial extent, they are a significant global store of terrestrial carbon. Blanket bogs in good condition can act as carbon sinks, whereas blanket bogs in a degraded condition may act as a carbon source. Read more
The techniques of Control Theory, Artificial Intelligence and Statistical Data Analysis have been applied to engineering systems with great success, and the resulting is better energy efficiency using storage. Read more
Reducing greenhouse gasses (GHG) emissions is one of the main goals of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement (signed in 2015 during COP21) which seeks to limit the global raise in temperature to 1.5 °C. Read more
Marine habitats provide a wealth of ecosystem services to the marine and terrestrial environments and to people. At the same time, these habitats are under increasing pressure from human activities in the coastal zone and climate change impacts, leading to disturbance and degradation. Read more
Position summary. Energy storage is a crucial element in modern life. The overarching aim of this project is to develop and test first fully customized thermal battery to store zero-carbon heat & cold. Read more
Applications are invited for a PhD project to work in the efficient and cost-effective production of hydrogen i.e., using innovative electrochemistry with sustainable and long-life catalysts. Read more
Supervisory Team. Paul White, Jon Bull, Tim Leighton. Laurence North. Project description. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a key technology in the transition to a low carbon economy. Read more
