Biological Sciences PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Southampton

We have 71 Biological Sciences PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Southampton

Up, up and away – the fate of upwelled nutrients in an African upwelling system and the biogeochemical and phytoplankton responses

Project Overview. This project will combine outputs from biological laboratory analyses, autonomous sensors (on moorings, floats and gliders) to investigate how physical and biological processes sustain ecosystem productivity in an Eastern Boundary Upwelling System off the west coast of Africa. Read more

Soil biophysical interactions in a changing climate and land use

Project Overview. Soil biophysical interactions play a critical role in facilitating water flow and retention, aeration, and nutrient transport, which aid in maintaining habitats for soil biota. Read more

Effect of microplastics on methane-cycling in marine sediments

Project Overview. Microplastics in oceans are detrimental to marine biota and may also impact Earth’s biogeochemical cycles. However, their effects on microorganisms and microbial communities are poorly studied. Read more

The Physiology of Macronutrient-Dependent Immunity in Honeybees

This project aims to understand the interaction between macronutrients and immunity. The candidate will develop research to understand how the quality and quantity of protein and lipid nutrients influence an adaptive immune response, using the response in bees as a model system. Read more
