Coastal sediment dynamics on the North Coast of Northern Ireland at decadal to centennial time scale.
Research Group:
Geography and Environmental Studies
Up-to-date shoreline models, lacking reliable long-term data to be calibrated with, fail to predict the consequences generated by the current and future context of sea level rise and climate change. Read more
How does climate change influence dynamics between saline and freshwater coastal wetlands?
This project is part of the NERC-funded Centre for Doctoral Training, ECOWILD. For more details, and for a full list of projects offered under this programme, please visit. Read more
GW4+ DOCTORAL LANDSCAPE TRAINING PARTNERSHIP (DLTP): Dynamic coastal risk for a changing climate
Project aims and methods. Over the summer of 2023, unusually warm and wet conditions triggered hazardous coastal landslides across the UK, underscoring the risks to life and infrastructure posed by such events. Read more

Resilient dunes: determining the impacts of winter flooding variability on coastal dune wetland plant communities using remote sensing (Ref: FCDT-25-LU1)
Coastal dune slacks are depressions in dune systems at the level of the water table. They are a very biodiverse and extremely rare habitat which is under threat, and so are a nature conservation priority. Read more
