  Impact of Arctic snow on soil and sea ice (Advert Reference: RDFC17-R/GES/RUTTER)
Northumbria University Faculty of Engineering and Environment
  Dr N Rutter
Applications accepted all year round
The thermal properties of Arctic snow play a vital role in mediating energy exchanges between the atmosphere and tundra soils or sea ice.

  Arctic Weather Forecasting (Ref: OP19_01)
Northumbria University Department of Geography & Environmental Sciences
  Dr N Rutter
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
High quality Arctic weather forecasts are urgently needed for polar shipping navigability, resource exploration and northern communities, as well as to provide a better understanding of how Arctic weather influences mid-latitude atmospheric conditions.

  Linking impacts of climate change on snow and water resources
University of Birmingham NERC Doctoral Training Centre Studentships with CENTA
  Dr J Larsen
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Rising temperatures are having impacts on many natural environmental systems around the world. High latitude and high elevation areas of the earth are experiencing particularly rapid temperature increases, resulting in changes in vegetation, carbon cycling, and many other ecosystem functions.

  Spatial capture-recapture methods for snow leopards
University of St Andrews School of Mathematics and Statistics
  Prof D Borchers, Dr R Glennie, Dr K Sharma
Applications accepted all year round
We do not know how many snow leopards are left in the world. Snow leopard range country governments and scientists have launched an ambitious initiative to develop a robust assessment of the global snow leopard population within the next five years, and monitoring efforts will continue after that.

  Timing of large landslides and ice-melt controlled nutient cycling in their debris in Western Greenland
Newcastle University Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering
  Dr S Dunning
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/. Mass movements are the primary process to lower ice-free bedrock slopes above glaciers and ice sheets, and, key to post-glacial landscape change.

  Siberian summers: detecting the leakage of old carbon from permafrost catchments
University of Liverpool School of Environmental Sciences
  Dr J Dean, Prof R Chiverell
Application Deadline: 23 January 2019
Arctic permafrost soils are large carbon stores capable of driving a positive climate feedback loop as global temperatures rise (Dean et al., 2018a).

Type/Funding
  (MERI) Atmospheric Ice Nucleation of biological particles
University of Manchester School of Earth and Environmental Sciences
  Research Group: Atmospheric Science
  Dr P Connolly, Dr D Topping, Prof M Gallagher
Application Deadline: 6 February 2019
The formation of ice in natural clouds occurs at temperatures below 0 °C. Pure liquid water drops do not freeze until temperatures are as low as -36 °C, or so, due to the homogeneous nucleation of ice.
