  Cross-fertilizing materials science with geology to study microscopic mechanisms of the rock cycle
Newcastle University Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering
  Dr H Yeddu
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/. Due to the natural and anthropogenic climate change, rocks can undergo significant transitions, known as the rock cycle.

  Development and Evolution of the West Greenland Passive Continental Margin
Heriot-Watt University School of Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society
  Research Group: Institute of Petroleum Engineering
  Prof J Underhill, Dr R Jamieson
Application Deadline: 1 February 2019
Passive continental margins record the rifting, breakup and thermal subsidence of divergent margins and therefore their study is a key components in developing our understanding of large scale tectonic processes.

  Ice streams: present-to-palaeo - QUADRAT
Aberdeen University QUADRAT
  Prof B Rea, Dr A Newton
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Ice streams are the arteries which drain large quantities of ice from the interior of ice sheets to the ice margin. From both palaeo and present they are known to display dynamical behaviour in relation to ice flow velocity.

  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.

  Low-Carbon Energy Recovery from Methane Hydrate Reservoirs
Aberdeen University School of Engineering
  Dr P Jadhawar, Dr W Afzal
Applications accepted all year round
Naturally occurring gas (mostly methane) hydrates along the continental margins (coastal offshore) and permafrost sediments are the clean source of energy outnumbering the rest forms of conventional energy sources.

  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.
