Geological Fate and Impact of Isosaccharinic acid (Geo-FISA)
About the Project. The nuclear fuel cycle has generated higher-level radioactive wastes that will be disposed of in a deep geological facility (GDF) that will provide multiple barriers to the migration of radionuclides to the surface over prolonged timescales (tens of thousands of years). Read more
Impact of climate change on farm-level aquaculture production and carrying capacity
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have warned of unprecedented rates of change over the 21st Century (IPCC, 2022). Read more
What does the future hold for European shelf seas ecosystems?
Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) content has been increasing from the industrial revolution onwards, predominantly due to the combustion of fossil fuel that had trapped the carbon deep underground and away from the atmosphere. Read more
Biological Sciences: Fully Funded PhD Scholarship: Novel machine-vision and deep-learning applications to assess the welfare of cleaner fish in the salmon industry
Funding providers. VisiFish Ltd. and Swansea University's Faculty of Science and Engineering. Subject areas. Behavioural Ecology, Aquaculture, Machine Learning, Fish Conservation. Read more

Offshore wind farms effects on ocean fronts and seabirds
Research Group:
Institute of Life and Earth Sciences
The UK is a global leader in marine renewables, and offshore wind farms (OWFs) are predicted to expand rapidly in future. However, potential deleterious biodiversity impacts mean we must do more to quantify and mitigate such effects and guide policy decisions. Read more

Energy, Technology, Behaviour, Culture and Regulation; The complex problems and transition engineering solutions for the future of local, sustainable fishing
Research Group:
Institute of Life and Earth Sciences
Picture an idyllic fishing village in the British Isles. City dwellers flock to these places for respite and to soak up the quaint historical scenery and great fresh seafood. Read more

Characterising the dynamics around offshore wind farms by combining machine learning and oceanographic techniques.
Project Description. This project will use data science techniques and satellite data sets to better understand how offshore wind farms can impact the ocean. Read more
Last chance to apply
Using an interdisciplinary approach to elucidate pollution impacts and antimicrobial resistant pathogen dynamics across terrestrial, estuarine and marine environments
Project Description. The impact of environmental change on pathogen dynamics and AMR evolution from catchment to coast. Coastal environments are particularly vulnerable to chemical and microbial pollution that impact ecosystem services and human health. Read more

Past, present and future benefits from marine biogenic shellfish reef habitats.
Project background. Biogenic shellfish reefs are complex seafloor habitats created by the presence of species such as oysters and mussels. Read more
