Carbon sequestration processes in the rusty carbon sink

Carbon is sequestered in soils and sediments via mineral associations. Over 20% of organiccarbon in sediments is directly bound to reactive iron mineral phases, giving rise to the so-called ‘rusty carbon sink’ (Lalonde et al. Read more

Why do some particles have the superpower of ice nucleation?

Clouds in the Earth’s atmosphere, and thereby the planet’s climate, are strongly affected by the presence of atmospheric particles that have the special ability to nucleate ice. Read more

QUADRAT DTP: Historical trends and future projections in lake and river ice phenology

This fully funded, 42-month PhD project is part of the QUADRAT Doctoral Training Partnership. In the last century the global average temperature has increased by ~1 °C, with the rate of increase doubling in recent decades and the northern high latitudes warming at 2-3 times the rate of the global average.

QUADRAT DTP: Environmental monitoring of peatlands with novel geophysical methods

This fully funded, 42-month PhD project is part of the QUADRAT Doctoral Training Partnership. Blanket bogs are important carbon sinks, which also regulate stream flow and water quality, as well as contributing to biodiversity. Read more

Earth’s small-scale structure – Massive datasets and machine learning

The interior of the Earth holds the record of the evolution of the planet and the imprint of ongoing processes. Lithospheric material is transported into the deep interior through subduction and then distributed throughout the mantle by convection. Read more

Developing novel methods to image the Earth’s subsurface for energy transition applications

Summary. Develop new methods to image the Earth’s subsurface. Evaluate uncertainty in those images using state-of-art techniques, and deploy these using real data to accelerate energy transition applications. Read more

Layering in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics

  Research Group: School of Mathematics
A fascinating feature of many geophysical fluid dynamical systems is their tendency to form layers or “staircases”, in which a key physical quantity, such as the density, exhibits a staircase structure with depth. Read more

Atmospheric chemistry of reactive trace species through direct real-time measurements

  Research Group: School of Chemistry
Poor air quality represents the greatest environmental risk to public health in the UK (DEFRA, 2017), and has been reported to affect every organ in the body, with links to illnesses including cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, vascular dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease causing over 4.2 million premature deaths worldwide and costing the UK economy ~£15 billion each year.
