Forensic acarology: the importance of mites in forensic investigations
This project involves the study of mites (Acari) in their role as useful markers in forensic investigations. . Read more
Improving the transferability of ecological research
Project Overview. Ecologists aspire both to understand nature and to provide society with interventions to restore, conserve and manage nature in the face of climate and ecological breakdown. Read more
Exploring the impact of microplastic-bacterial complexes on animal health and the gut microbiome
Plastic pollution is a global issue and rapidly emerging as a crisis for both environmental and human health. Read more
Improved time-stepping schemes in weather and climate models
"The task of predicting weather and climate may be reduced to the following iterative procedure. First, given the state of the system at any time (the input), use the governing equations to compute the state at a slightly later time (the output). Read more
Representing ground-atmosphere coupling over complex terrain: the need for a new paradigm
Computer models used to predict the weather (known as numerical weather prediction or NWP models) and climate (known as climate models) do not simulate… Read more
How is climate change affecting atmospheric turbulence?
Atmospheric turbulence is the leading cause of weather-related aircraft accidents and. incidents. It injures hundreds of passengers and flight attendants annually, costs the aviation. Read more
Developing computing architectures for improving the simulation of fog
To numerically simulate the formation of fog, a horizontal spatial resolution approaching 1 metre or less is highly desirable to improve scientific understanding… Read more
Net zero housing retrofits - assuring a sustainable low-carbon transition in the domestic sector
The UK has committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The UK's 29 million houses represent 14% of total emissions (CCC, 2019), with nearly 90% of these built more than 20 years ago before stricter energy efficiency standards came into force (Ince & Marvin, 2019). Read more
Decarbonisation of the Food System
As the world transitions to a low carbon economic system, dramatic changes will be required across the all sectors. The food system, which is currently estimated to be responsible for 20-30% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, is one where particular urgency is required. Read more
Local-level governance and environmental protection in Brazil
About the Project. Local authorities are often the ones in charge of taking substantive measures to protect the environment. Read more
The relationship between vegetation and morphology in saltmarsh restoration schemes
Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere. Read more
The role of grazing in ecosystem service delivery in saltmarsh restoration schemes
Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere. Read more
Trace evidence: Locard’s exchange principle using invertebrates
In most criminal or forensic investigations, much of the work focuses on the collection and assessment of biological traces of human origin. Read more
