What Lurks Beneath: Integrating the physical and chemical signals of magma ascent for enhanced volcanic eruption forecasting
BACKGROUND. More than one in ten people around the world live and work close enough to a volcano to be significantly impacted by an eruption, and rapid and reliable decision making in the lead up to and during a volcanic crisis is crucial to mitigate hazards and risk. Read more
Understanding reproductive success to evaluate the impact of global warming on Andean trees.
Background. Tropical forests are among Earth’s most vital ecosystems in terms of carbon storage, climate regulation, and biodiversity, but their response to climate change remains deeply uncertain. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Habitat networks designed for all - ensuring climate-resilience for a wide diversity of species
Biodiversity is threatened by habitat degradation and fragmentation, which hampers the ability of species to successfully shift their ranges in response to climate change. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Environmental drivers of tick-borne pathogen exposure in southern African wildlife
Wildlife mass mortality events worldwide such as the elephant mortalities of 2020 highlight the importance of understanding how environmental factors influence patterns of exposure to pathogens and drive outbreaks of disease. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Using species distribution models to investigate long-term changes in human-animal interactions in North Africa from rock art (with a focus on Predynastic Egypt)
BACKGROUND. Dramatic climatic changes took place in North Africa during the Holocene, with savannahs covering swathes of the Sahara during the Green Sahara phase. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: TIMELOESS: Temporal Investigation of Moisture and Environmental change in the Tagus Basin using loess sequences
The modern Iberian Peninsula has an east-west climate gradient, but studies show that during Holocene these patterns were weaker and linked to changes in long-term climatic drivers. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Mountain lakes as sentinels of change: linking nitrogen deposition rates to greenhouse gas emissions
This is an exciting project, linking science to real-world policy, and with lots of fieldwork in upland and mountain environments. Read more
ACCE+ DLA programme: Effects of climate extremes on the reproduction of trees: how does drought affect seed production?
Background. Reproduction is key to the resilience of forests, but we know little about its response to climate change. For example, severe summer droughts increase tree mortality and reduce tree growth, but for most species we don’t know how seed production responds. Read more
