Co-benefits and Trade-offs for Regenerative Agriculture
Project description. Nearly 70% of UK land area and 50% of European Union (EU) land is used for agriculture. These landscapes have been shaped by centuries of large-scale human impacts through traditional or intensive land-use systems. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Regenerative grazing management: its potential to improve soil health and biodiversity
The ambitious UK greenhouse gas emissions (GHGe) net-zero target for 2050 added to the known large effect that livestock has on GHGe have led to the search for more sustainable production systems. 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
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

MSc by Research on Nature Recovery
You will contribute to the research and knowledge arising from a new large-scale nature recovery project in a diverse former agricultural landscape next to Lincoln. Read more
Fate and transport of microplastics in partially saturated soils
Recent research indicates that microplastics are now ubiquitous in the environment. Read more
Laboratory and field measurements, and interpretation of self-potential signals that arise in response to water flow is a fractured basement rock in N-W Scotland - application to characterisation of subsurface fracture patterns
Self-potentials (SP) arise when an electrolyte (e.g. groundwater or brine) flows through a porous rock (hydrocarbon reservoir or aquifer). Read more
Droplet Impacts with Functional Surfaces
Droplet interactions with functional surfaces play a crucial role in many important physical processes, from preventing virus laden droplets passing through face masks to reducing the build-up of ice on the surfaces of flying aircraft. Read more
Macroscopic capillary pressure in multi-phase porous media flows
Although multi-phase flow in porous media is an established research field for decades, its theoretical background is still being developed. Read more
