Modelling CO2 flow and trapping at industrial carbon storage sites

This PhD is one of a number of projects hosted by the Centre for Doctoral Training in Green Industrial Futures (CDT-GIF). We are offering pioneering research projects that will enable PhD researchers to explore key technologies and solutions that will support UK industry to reach net zero. Read more

Global CO2 storage capacity: Modelling limitations of geography and injectivity

This PhD is one of a number of projects hosted by the Centre for Doctoral Training in Green Industrial Futures (CDT-GIF). We are offering pioneering research projects that will enable PhD researchers to explore key technologies and solutions that will support UK industry to reach net zero. Read more

Does peatland restoration mitigate or liberate metal contamination from historic tin mining sites? Karen

Quantifying the aquatic and terrestrial impacts of historic metal mining sites is crucial, as surface waters from these protected historic environment features are commonly used for drinking water, despite failing water quality standards for metals (manganese, nickel, cadmium, lead) and metalloids (arsenic).

Hot to cold: the exceptional mobility and hazard of volcanic block and ash flows

Ten percent of the world's population (i.e. 100s of millions) live within 100 km of an active volcano. During all explosive volcanic eruptions pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) can form – high temperature mixtures of rock and gas that rapidly flow away from the volcanic vent. Read more

Cold-Stunning in Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtles: Physiological responses to climate change

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join a cutting-edge project investigating the impact of environmental changes on cold-stunning events in Kemp’s ridley sea turtles, the world’s most endangered sea turtle species. Read more
