  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.

  Assessing the ecological vulnerability of natural defences and risks to agricultural land following seawater flooding
University of Plymouth Faculty of Science and Engineering
  Prof R Thompson, Dr M Hanley
Application Deadline: 26 March 2019
Erosion and flooding represent significant threats to our coastlines. In recent years, much progress has been made in understanding the role of natural habitats in providing coastal protection both in isolation and, in combination with, engineered sea defence structures.

  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.

  Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) from depleted Sandstone and Carbonate/chalk reservoirs
Aberdeen University School of Engineering
  Dr P Jadhawar, Dr H Hamidi
Applications accepted all year round
Nearly one third of the oil is left behind in the reservoir after the primary and secondary recovery methods of oil recovery.

  Flood mitigation schemes in rural communities in the south west of England
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr K Clarke, Dr A P Dykes, Dr M Ibsen
Applications accepted all year round
There have been several severe flood events in southwest England in recent years, including Boscastle in 2004, Dawlish in 2014 and Coverack in 2014 and July 2017.

  The changing nature of UK flooding - MScR in Global Environmental Challenges
University of Bristol Cabot Institute
  Dr M Pregnolato, Prof T Wagener
Application Deadline: 1 August 2019
About the Project. In the last centuries, flooding has produced devastating societal and economic losses in the UK, as well as in other countries.

  Initiatives for Sustainable Urban Development in China: Focusing on Flooding and Stormwater Management
Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University Civil Engineering
  Dr C Jun
Applications accepted all year round
With cities getting bigger and climate change threatening to bring more extreme weather, the concept of “sponge cities” has been proposed in China, which is a reimagination of the urban environment where raindrop is captured, controlled and reused.

  Rewilding and Natural Flood Management
Queen Mary University of London School of Geography
  Dr G Harvey, Dr A Henshaw, Dr S Clarke
Application Deadline: 18 March 2019
Queen Mary University of London is announcing an exciting opportunity for an allocated four-year PhD position in either the Earth Surface Science group in the School of Geography or the Evolution and Development group in the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences.

Type/Funding
  Water Engineering: Complex Natural River Flow Modelling and Flood Analysis
University of Bradford Faculty of Engineering and Informatics
  Dr P Pimenidou, Dr J Pu
Applications accepted all year round
The study on flooding, and identifying suitable ways to mitigate floods, have become a top priority for Government and the Environmental Agency, due to increasing flood frequency and intensity around the UK.
Details
Type/Funding
  A technologically-led approach to river restoration using UAVs (drones)
University of Salford School of Environment & Life Sciences
  Mr N Entwistle
Applications accepted all year round
Fluvial systems offer a challenging and varied environment for topographic survey, displaying a rapidly varying morphology, vegetation assemblage and degree of submergence.
