  Investigating the impact of climate change on riverine flooding (Advert Reference: SF18/MCE/MOTTA)
Northumbria University Faculty of Engineering and Environment
  Dr D Motta
Applications accepted all year round
Riverine flooding evaluation typically includes a hydrologic analysis to estimate the flood peak discharge or hydrograph for a reference return period, and a hydraulic model to compute the corresponding water surface elevations and flooded areas.

  Atmospheric Drivers of UK flood events: Current State and Future Changes
University of Exeter College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences
  Dr J Catto
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the NERC Great Western Four+ Doctoral Training Partnership (GW4+ DTP).

  Comprehensive investigation of the chemical flooding EOR in natural rocks
Aberdeen University School of Engineering
  Dr J Vinogradov, Dr L Akanji
Applications accepted all year round
Chemical flooding is a promising method of EOR in both carbonate and sandstone reservoirs. It is widely accepted that presence of chemicals in rock pore space results in alteration of interfacial tension between brine and hydrocarbons and rock wettability alteration.

  Erosion hazards in a changing climate: making inland communities more resilient
University of Liverpool School of Environmental Sciences
  Dr J Cooper, Prof A Plater, Prof J Hooke, Mr D Viner
Application Deadline: 23 January 2019
This modelling project aims to quantify how future climate scenarios will affect the frequency and severity of erosion hazards in catchments, the vulnerability of key rural infrastructure and how we might best mitigate their impact.

  How can Knowledge of Hillslope Soils Help to Prevent Flooding Through Changes in Land Management?
The James Hutton Institute Postgraduate Training
  Dr B McKenzie, Dr Z Gagkas, Dr A Black
Application Deadline: 4 January 2019
Background. The impact of climate change across Scotland is indisputable. SEPA (2006) state that current predictions indicate higher river flows nationwide in the future will likely lead to increased flood risk.
