PhD in land-based CO2 removal strategies for climate change mitigation
In a world facing the urgent challenge of climate change, it's clear that we need to take action. This PhD project aims to investigate land-based strategies for removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. Read more
Climate change adaptation in construction organisations
The effects of climate change, including extreme weather conditions, temperature increases, and floods, are increasingly evident worldwide. Read more
Climate change resilience of global supply chains
Research Group:
School of Management
Climate change is posing significant challenges to global supply chains that they need to respond to multifaceted challenges. Supply chains need to be resilient to climate-change related disruptions such as floods, draughts, hurricanes, fires, and extreme temperatures (Ali et al., 2023). Read more
Spatiotemporal Flood Trends and Resilient Solutions for Water Extremes: A Case Study of South-East Queensland, Australia
The primary goal of this study is to develop a globally applicable framework or set of guidelines that can assist decision-makers in distinguishing the individual and combined influences of climate change and LULC change on the frequency and intensity of floods. Read more
Restoring Ecosystems Under Climate Change
The Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment (HIE) is offering a research scholarship to highly motivated PhD candidates to investigate plant responses to climate change, and the adaptive and physiological mechanisms that might enhance the climate resilience of ecological restoration plantings.
