Transforming live mine workings into thermal energy storage (MTES)
There are huge spaces left under the surface after mining (e.g., shafts, tunnels, stopes). Some are backfilled while most are not, but once mining has ceased and groundwater is permitted to rebound these spaces to become flooded with water. Read more
PhD in tropical conservation: Quantifying the impacts of mining on tropical biodiversity
Mining is the most luctrative industry globally, with rapid expansion of mines predicted accross the tropics. This expansion will drive deforestation within the mine itself and through interaction with socio-economic development outside of the mine. Read more
Mine site restoration and ecosystem development
This project will include various aspect of minesite rehabilitation including early development of terrestrial ecosystems and the nutritional constraints to ecosystem development (plants and soil biota) using a space-for-time substiution appraoch. Read more
Utilisation of microalgae for sustainable biotechnology
Research Group:
Ecology and Evolution
Microalgae are a diverse group of photosynthetic freshwater or marine microorganisms that are widely studied with regard to their ecology or as model organisms in biological research. Read more
Choosing to persist: sexual section and conservation in the wild
Research Group:
Centre for Evolutionary Biology
The prevailing story of sexual selection, in which the sexes either compete for or choose the other sex, has been one of costly and detrimental extravagance. Read more
Multi-vehicle routing problem in dynamic environments
We are currently recruiting a candidate to investigate multi-vehicle routing in dynamic environments. The project will develop an integrated multi-vehicle routing and trajectory planning method for environments that change based on the operations of the vehicles. Read more
Radar signal processing based on neural network sequence model
Intelligent transportation and intelligent driving represent the current major trends in the development of the transportation industry, while environmental perception is the key core technology of transportation intelligence and is also a hot area of long-term academic research. Read more
Dark Matter Search with the LZ Experiment
Research Group:
Particle Physics and Particle Astrophysics
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a project to build and operate a high-sensitivity dark matter experiment in the deep mine at SURF in South Dakota, USA. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Understanding synapse-specific function and dysfunction in the prefrontal cortex
