  Implications of coral reef degradation for fisheries
Lancaster University Lancaster Environment Centre
  Prof Nick Graham
Application Deadline: 27 January 2019
Around six million people fish on coral reefs, and the fish they catch provide critical sources of protein, micronutrients and income for many millions more.

  Investigating the distribution and diversity of mesophotic reefs in the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT)
University of Plymouth Faculty of Science and Engineering
  Dr K Howell, Dr N Foster, Dr P Hosegood
Application Deadline: 8 February 2019
Applications are invited for a three-year PhD studentship. The studentship will start on April 1st 2019. Tropical coral reefs represent one of the most important, iconic and diverse marine ecosystems, hosting ~24% of all marine fish species and possibly more than a million species overall.

  Picking climate change winners for assisted gene flow interventions on coral reefs
Newcastle University Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering
  Dr JR Guest
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
This project is part of the ONE Planet DTP. Find out more here. https://research.ncl.ac.uk/one-planet/. One of the most important questions for biodiversity conservation in the face of global climate change is whether species will adapt, acclimatise, migrate or be extirpated.

  The rocky road to recovery – The role of microbialites in coral reef recovery after abrupt environmental change
Newcastle University Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering
  Dr C van der Land
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
This project is part of the ONE Planet DTP. Find out more here. https://research.ncl.ac.uk/one-planet/. Microbialites are excellent recorders of past sea-level and water chemistry, especially during times of environmental stress when skeletal corals (normal reef builders) are less likely to survive.

  Jurassic Lagoon: learning from the ancestors of the amazing mussels - QUADRAT
Aberdeen University QUADRAT
  Dr A Brasier, Dr J Sigwart
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Mussels (bivalves of the family Mytilidae) are incredible animals with a long fossil history. For millions of years, populations of mussels have been able to withstand pounding waves by attaching themselves to the seafloor using threads that are one of the strongest materials found in nature.

  Oceanographic drivers of ecosystem variability in the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT)
University of Plymouth Faculty of Science and Engineering
  Dr P Hosegood, Dr C Embling, Dr K Howell
Application Deadline: 8 February 2019
Applications are invited for a three-year PhD studentship. The studentship will start on April 1st 2019. Physical oceanographic processes are becoming increasingly recognised as important drivers of ecosystem response throughout the world’s oceans.
