Bending the biodiversity curve: how can we measure success?
The biodiversity crisis presents existential risk to wildlife, ecosystems and the benefits that human derive from them. To prevent catastrophic losses, we require the highest quality evidence to inform policy and decision-making. Read more

Using earthquakes to constrain stress in the Earth
The magnitude and orientation of stress in the Earth determine how the Earth deforms. It is a first-order feature that one must quantify when considering loads on the Earth’s surface, flow within the Earth’s crust and mantle, or the nucleation and rupture of earthquakes. Read more
Towards a holistic understanding of carbonate mineralisation controls
Calcium-carbonates (CaCO. 3. ) are climate-controlling minerals, acting as long-term sinks in the biogeochemical carbon cycle, and playing the role of stable carbon stores in many carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies. Read more
Tidewater glacier mass-loss mechanisms in Northwest Greenland
The Greenland Ice Sheet is currently the leading ice-sheet contributor to sea-level rise. Read more
Tidal dissipation, magmatism and mantle convection on Io
Intense magmatism and volcanism in Jupiter’s moon Io is driven by tidal heating. Magmatic segregation from the mantle and heat-piping across the crust exports the tidal heat to space, maintaining a thermal equilibrium. Read more
The starting behaviour of volcanic eruption plumes
This project will explore the factors that control the initial height of ‘starting’ volcanic plumes, and test the hypothesis that the height is related to the initial power of the eruption. Read more
Solving mid mantle mysteries using seismology, geodynamics and mineral physics
The structure of the crust and near-surface of the Earth is relatively well known based on geological and geophysical observations, whereas seismological observations are needed to infer the deeper structure of our planet. Read more
Robustly imaging mantle upwellings under isolated oceanic islands
Mantle upwellings link the deep mantle to the surface and regulate Earth’s outgassing and internal temperature, which is a fundamental control on the atmosphere and our planet’s habitability. Read more
Regional impacts of supraglacial lake drainage on ice-flow dynamics
Mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet is accelerating, partly due to increases in the rate at which ice flows out to the ocean. Ongoing increases in the magnitude and spatial extent of surface melting play a complex role in this process. Read more
High-precision seismology to understand slow earthquakes
Slow earthquakes remain one of the most important unexplained phenomena in fault mechanics. These ruptures are now routinely observed all over the world, often right next to or below large megathrust earthquakes. Read more
Granular geophysics: models of particle-laden flow
This project is defined by its methodology rather than the applications. Applications will be determined by the student in discussion with the supervisors. Read more
