  Modelling landslide preconditioning in Nelson, New Zealand (JOHNSONUENV19ARIES)
University of East Anglia School of Environmental Sciences
  Dr J Johnson, Dr G Bennett, Dr B Reid
Application Deadline: 8 January 2019
Many homes in New Zealand are built on steep hillslopes at risk from landslides. This problem is compounded by frequent earthquakes and intense rainfall that cause frequent and widespread landsliding.

  Understanding, Modelling and Predicting Landslides in High Mountain Areas (Norway) - Is Global Warming Increasing Mountain Hazards?
University of Leeds School of Earth & Environment
  Dr A Abellan, Dr B Murphy, Dr J West
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
We invite applications for a fully-funded PhD studentship to work on an exciting and truly multi-disciplinary opportunity for investigating landslide hazards in high mountain areas.

  The hydraulic control of the rhizosphere on rainfall-induced fast-moving shallow landslides
University of Strathclyde Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering
  Prof A Tarantino
Application Deadline: 1 January 2019
Rainfall is a major triggering factor of shallow landslides. When heavy and/or prolonged rainfall events occur, water infiltrates into the slope causing pore-water pressures build-up.

Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr M Ibsen, Dr A P Dykes, Dr S Downward
Applications accepted all year round
Climate change predictions for the British Isles generally indicate that there will be higher winter rainfall in future, but with more frequent high intensity rainfall events at any time of year.
