Aeolian ripple dynamics on Mars: remote sensing and airflow modelling using earth analogues
Research Group:
Geography and Environmental Studies
Small-scale wind-blown features are widespread sedimentary indicators of local wind dynamics on Mars and could potentially be a unique source of information on Martian wind regimes given the possibility to monitor them with time series of Remotely Sensed imagery, using advanced techniques for registration and correlation of optical images.

(STFC) THE ATMOSPHERIC EVOLUTION OF MARS
Research Group:
Isotope Geochemistry & Planetary Science
Project overview. Mars’ atmospheric evolution was marked by an early, dense CO. 2. -rich atmosphere giving sufficient greenhouse warming to enable liquid water at the surface, followed by atmospheric loss leaving a less dense atmosphere with cold, arid surface conditions. Read more
Looking for life on Mars on Earth
Applications are invited for a PhD position at the Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. This project is embedded within a larger NASA and Australian Research Council program focusing on the exploration of ancient environments on Mars with current NASA missions. Read more

(STFC) BIOAVAILABILITY OF ORGANICS FOR LIFE IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM
Research Group:
Isotope Geochemistry & Planetary Science
Project overview. Our understanding of planetary habitability is necessarily limited to our knowledge of life on Earth. A fundamental and as yet underexplored component of habitability is the availability of organic chemical energy for growth. Read more
Geopolymeric membranes for water purification on Mars and the Moon
Martian and lunar dust simulants are terrestrial material designed to simulate the known chemical and mechanical properties of martian and lunar soil (regolith). Read more
Designing Cements for Martian and Lunar Construction
Human settlements on celestial bodies such as the Earth’s moon and Mars were imagined as early as the 17th century and have recently received increased attention because of NASA’s Artemis mission and “Journey to Mars” plan, as well as SpaceX’s Mars program. Read more
PhD Studentship in Astrobiology available from 1st October 2023
Project Highlights - Guaranteed funding from the UK Space Agency; Conduct Mars analogue experiments using state-of-the-art simulation facilities to investigate biosignature formation; Support the Mars2020 mission by evaluating the biological potential of locations within Jezero Crater; Develop expertise in mineral biosignature formation by combining geochemistry with microbiology. Read more
Autonomous cooperation of bio-inspired adaptable lightweight mobile robots
In challenging planetary environments such as Mars, a diverse range of terrains must be traversed to deliver sensing instruments and achieve scientific goals. Read more
GREENCDT The design and simulation of micro-reactors for space propulsion, lunar surface power and planetary defence
There is increasing interest in enabling humans to explore further into space and for longer periods of time than has historically been achieved, including a permanent presence on the lunar surface and travel to Mars. Read more
PhD opportunities in Management at Brunel University London

Membranes for carbon dioxide conversion for environmental and space exploration applications
The conversion of carbon dioxide to useful products is essential not only on Earth for reaching net zero targets, but also for space exploration and future planet colonisation. Read more
Forecasting radiation for the Lunar Gateway space station
Supervisor. Dr R. T. Desai (enquiries. ravindra.desai@warwick.ac.uk. ); Professor T. D. Arber. www.warwick.ac.uk/go/cfsa/people/desai. Read more
Foundation services for sustained presence on the moon
Multiple space agencies are working together to develop a sustained presence on the moon as a means for further deep space exploration of Mars and beyond. Read more
Nonlinear System Analysis Using Convex Optimization
The foundations of dynamical systems theory can be traced back to Isaac Newton. Newton was the first to model the motion of physical systems as differential equations. Read more
