L-Band TomoSAR Deep Imaging: From Glacier Internal Structure Mapping to Anomaly Detection - SENSE CDT
The Earth’s climate has changed through its history. A potential outcome of climate change is glacier melting, which is what we observe over the last decades. Read more
Breathing Oceans: An investigation into the life of the Ocean’s skin layer in controlling the ability of our Ocean’s to store greenhouse gases
Research Group:
Institute of Life and Earth Sciences
We are seeking applicants for a 3-year PhD studentship fully funded by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No [949495]), starting 1 September 2023. Read more
The influence of particle characteristics on the field-scale geomechanical behaviour of soils
It is well recognised that many geotechnical phenomena, such as liquefaction, crushing, dissolution effects and failure are affected by macro-scale properties such as initial density, anisotropy, permeability and compressibility, amongst others. Read more

Bayesian Meta-Learning for Earth Observation: Better Models with Less Data - SENSE CDT
Machine learning has brought significant improvements to pattern recognition systems in the past decade [5]. The three main factors that this success is attributed to are the use of deep neural networks, very large annotated training datasets, and abundant computing resources. Read more

Multifunctional nanomaterials for greenhouse gases removal
Climate change is the biggest threat faced by humankind in this century. The impact is costly and catastrophic. A versatile solution is needed because many of these greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions are typically disseminated, from various sources. Read more
Improving the accessibility of offshore wind infrastructure
Offshore wind farms are increasingly proposed for more remote and challenging environments. An example is the four “ScotWind” option sites (N1 – N4) north and west of Scotland. Read more
Recognizing the importance of biology in the ocean’s carbonate pump
Recognition of the central role of ocean biology in the biological carbon pump led to a revolution in our understanding of how it functions, its magnitude, efficiency and variability. Read more
