  Using novel data sources and data driven methods to improve hydrological monitoring and forecasting for water and food security in developing regions
University of Southampton School of Geography
  Prof J Sheffield, Prof G Ramchurn
Application Deadline: 12 January 2019
Extreme hydrological events such as floods and droughts account for the majority of impacts of all natural hazards, in terms of human and economic costs.

  Long-Term Impacts of Peatland Restoration on Hydrological Function
The James Hutton Institute Postgraduate Training
  Dr R Artz, Dr M Coyle, Prof J Holden
Application Deadline: 4 January 2019
Many UK blanket peatlands were drained during the second half of the 20th century using open cut ditches. However, these are now being blocked as part of peatland restoration initiatives.

  SCENARIO: How do trees affect the hydrological cycle?
University of Reading Centre for Ecology & Hydrology
  Dr E Blyth, Prof A Verhoef, Dr E Robinson, Dr T Nisbet
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
One of the least constrained components of the hydrological cycle is the amount of rainfall that is captured by the vegetation and recycled back to the atmosphere – the Interception.

  SCENARIO: Evaluating the impact of woodland management and drinking water abstraction on groundwater-fed wetlands
University of Reading School of Geography and Environmental Science
  Dr J Clark, Prof A Verhoef, Dr D Macdonald, Ms D Wilkinson
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
Healthy, well-functioning natural wetlands are critically important, yet the world is rapidly losing these important habitats due to anthropogenic pressures (Ramsar Convention on Wetlands 2018).

  Peatland hydrology: a global comparison using the PeatDataHub monitoring network
University of Leeds School of Geography
  Prof J Holden, Dr P Morris, Dr G Lopez-Gonzalez
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
This PhD project seeks to use the new PeatDataHub platform (https://peatdatahub.net/) to compile data from sites around the world in order to enable the successful student to interrogate datasets on water table and other hydrological properties to understand more about global peatland water-table dynamics.

  Novel physical and numerical methods for simulating water and heat transfer in land surface models.
University of Reading School of Geography and Environmental Science
  Prof A Verhoef, Prof M Baines
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
Meteorological offices worldwide, including the UK Met Office (UKMO), have come to realise that improved land surface modelling is critical for providing better forecasts within a changing climate, for example for flood and drought prediction.

  Is the water use efficiency of land plants changing?
University of Leeds School of Geography
  Prof E Gloor, Dr R Brienen
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
The globe’s vegetation is closely intertwined with the global carbon and hydrological cycles, and changes in plant functioning can thus have substantial consequences for climate.
