soil erosion PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 12 soil erosion PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Leverhulme Doctoral Programme for Regenerative Innovation (Regnr8-i): Scaling nature-based practices to provide multiple benefits from PROTECTing Scottish SOILs (PROTECT-SOIL)
Soils are crucial to our economy, environment and society due to the many ecosystem services they provide. Soils are formed over hundreds of years but can be washed away in a few hours. Read more
QUARTILES DLA: Restoring soil physical conditions and erosion resistance with indigenous plants
This fully funded PhD project is part of the QUARTILES Doctoral Landscape Award, a BBSRC and NERC-funded research and training programme designed to equip… Read more
Computational modelling of chemical interactions in soil
This project will use atomic-scale computational modelling to understand chemical processes in soil. Soils contain large amounts of organic matter (also called “soil organic carbon”). Read more
Computational modelling of mineral-organic binding in soil
Soils contain large amounts of organic matter (also called “soil organic carbon”). there is three times as much carbon stored in soil than in the atmosphere as CO. Read more
PhD Studentship: Enhancing Ecosystem Service Delivery in British Hop Farms
Applications are invited for this full-time PhD studentship, which for UK home students is fully funded* by the Worshipful Company of Brewers, Asahi and the Royal Agricultural University. Read more
What are the consequences of sexual dimorphism for habitat choice? Lessons from an actinorhizal dioecious plant (Hippophae rhamnoides L.)
Funding. This PhD project is part of a competition funded by SRUC. This opportunity is open to UK and International students and provides funding to cover tuition fees at the UK rate, plus a stipend to support living costs. Read more
Exploring Drivers of Behaviour Change for Sustainability
Since the start of the Industrial Revolution, global emissions have steadily risen, with approximately half attributed to unsustainable resource consumption. Read more
Last chance to apply
The population consequences of excess fine sediment for Atlantic salmon
Primary Supervisor: Prof John Iwan Jones. Co-Supervisor(s): Prof Mark Trimmer and Dr Sophie Elliot (Game and WIldlife Conservation Trust). Read more
Exploring the potential and limitations of cover cropping in spring barley rotations in Northern Scotland, with a focus on establishment reliability
Funding. This PhD project is part of a competition funded by SRUC. This opportunity is open to UK and International students and provides funding to cover tuition fees at the UK rate, plus a stipend to support living costs. Read more
Mechanisms of horizontal bearing properties of bridge piers during scour process
This project intends to develop a three-dimensional numerical method for coupling pier soil-water interactions for bridges under flood peaks. Read more
MRes: Environmental attitudes and behaviours of Brazilian mountain bikers (SAS0203)
Mountain biking is an increasingly popular outdoor recreation in many countries. Read more
Integrating nature-based and engineered solutions for debris flow hazard mitigation
The widespread loss of native vegetation over centuries, driven by deforestation for agriculture, urbanisation, and industrialisation, has significantly increased the hazards associated with surface runoff and shallow landslides. Read more
