Deciphering the dynamics of abrupt ocean change and climate tipping points
Is it possible to radically alter the way that the ocean moves? Could we be doing this through global warming? Is there any way of knowing when such changes will take place? . Read more
Wind-blown transport of granular materials in natural environments
Project Description. Wind/air blown particle transport is ubiquitous in many industrial processes and natural environments. Natural examples include wind-blown dune formation and erosion, and the remobilization of volcanic ash. Read more
Firn saturation of ice shelves across Antarctica from borehole optical televiewer datasets
Project Description. Ice shelves buffer the inland flow of the Antarctic Ice Sheet – their disintegration (e.g., the collapse of Larsen B Ice Shelf in 2002) can cause accelerated ice mass loss and sea-level contributions. Read more
Propagation of RF/microwave signals in plasma
The Project. Are you passionate about developing novel research and keen to shape the future of RF and Microwave energy transfer technologies? We are recruiting a motivated PhD candidate to undertake an exciting project within the EPSRC Energy Transfer Technologies Doctoral Training Hub. Read more
(UoM - IISc Bangalore) Environmentally friendly grain refinement of engineering alloys by small strain oscillatory deformation
Aim. Grain-size is a key feature of high performance alloys, but grain refinement processes are usually expensive because they use high temperatures and strains. Read more
Weighing the Antarctic Ice Sheet: using GNSS observations of solid Earth deformation to understand contributions to sea level change
Recent studies suggest that much of West Antarctica is underlain by weak mantle. This matters, because ice sheet mass balance estimates must be corrected for the process of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), and this correction requires modelling of the solid Earth. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Advancing global geodetic, space and radio astronomy infrastructure to tackle future societal and environmental challenges.
Geodesy examines the Earth’s dynamic size, shape, and gravitational field, playing a vital role in numerous scientific disciplines such as navigation, mapping, climate change, engineering, meteorology, and natural hazard assessment. Read more
Measuring wind on Mars using orbital imaging data
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
Giant planet atmospheric modelling
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
Exploring Venus’ atmosphere using data assimilation
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
Source to sink analysis of the continental margins of Africa and South America: provenance and subsidence/uplift history
Since the establishment of the plate tectonics paradigm, the concept of a ‘passive’ margin, where the margins of a newly formed ocean drift apart with little active tectonic disturbance, has been an integral part of the Earth sciences. Read more
PhD position (f/m/d): Pioneering simulations of offshore wind farm turbulence
We are looking for a motivated PhD candidate to delve into flow dynamics in offshore wind farms, developing novel computer simulations. Read more
PhD position (f/m/d): Large-scale weather effects in wind farm simulations
Are you intrigued by the complexities of fluid mechanics, turbulence, and the unexplored potential of high-performance computing? We present an exceptional PhD opportunity for individuals dedicated to pioneering the development of wind farm simulations. Read more
3D imaging of brain blood flow using ultrasound
Imaging blood flow in the brain is crucial to diagnose neurological disorders such as strokes and aneurysms, understand their root causes, and develop better treatments. Read more
Fully Funded PhD Program Opportunity
The Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST), accredited in 2011 as a graduate university, is located in the beautiful subtropical island of Okinawa, Japan. Read more
