  The evolutionary ecology of dispersal in invading populations (SPURGINUBIO19ARIES)
University of East Anglia School of Biological Sciences
  Dr L Spurgin, Prof M Gage, Dr J Gilroy
Application Deadline: 8 January 2019

  Ecosystem services associated with aquatic plants in urban landscapes
University of Leeds Faculty of Biological Sciences
  Research Group: School of Biology
  Dr C Hassall
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
Current projections of urbanisation predict that between 2000 and 2030 the extent of urban areas will increase by an estimated 185%, representing a considerable threat to biodiversity and complex challenges for urban planners and conservationists alike (Hassall, 2014).

  PhD in Ecology and Environment: how ecosystems, and the species they contain, respond to environmental change and how to reduce and mitigate adverse impacts
University of Sheffield Department of Animal and Plant Sciences
  Dr D Childs
Applications accepted all year round
Environmental change threatens biodiversity, altering ecosystem processes and provision of ecosystem services. These environmental change pressures are accelerating due to growing human populations and accompanying climate change, land use, pollution and invasive species.
