Assessing sedimentary Blue Carbon to inform marine management
Project overview . Marine sediments contain massive amounts of ‘blue carbon’ isolated from the atmosphere for millennia. Net carbon flux into sediments and the influence of human activity and changing climate is poorly quantified. Read more
Cross-Instrument Data Fusion for Comprehensive Marine Imaging Analysis
Project overview . You will address a critical problem for automated image classification. the integration of diverse data from different camera systems within the same computer vision model. Read more
Advancing Marine Sensing with Novel Surface Plasmon Resonance Techniques for Ocean Monitoring
Supervisory Team. Dr Rand Ismaeel, Professor Dr Matt Mowlem. Ocean monitoring is a critical aspect of environmental preservation and human survival, as it directly impacts global climate change and the sustainable development of ocean resources. Read more
The biogeochemical impacts and implications of seaweed deposition as a marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) approach
Project overview. This project will characterise the impacts of Sargassum degradation on deep-sea biogeochemical processes and determine the fate of products released into the environment to help evaluate the potential efficacy and effects of seaweed deposition as a marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) technique. . Read more
Biogeography of the southern Indian Ocean higher predator community
Project overview. Numerous seabird and marine mammal species occur in the subtropical and subantarctic zones of the southern Indian Ocean. Read more
Long-term change in the benthos – seabed photography as a critical tool for monitoring
Project overview. Long-term environmental monitoring of changes to the seabed is rare but important, particularly as climate change accelerates. Read more
Ancient climate change as a driver of ocean (de)oxygenation and marine ecology
Project overview. The ocean is losing its breath. Persistent ocean deoxygenation causes disruptions in the nutrient cycle with devastating consequences for ecosystems, but its future remains unclear. Read more
Next generation of Lab-on-Chip (LOC) ocean sensors
Supervisory Team. Prof Gilberto Brambilla, Dr Timothy Lee, Dr Rand Ismaeel. The ORC is offering a fully funded PhD position focused on developing the next generation of Lab-on-Chip (LOC) ocean sensors using femtosecond laser writing technology. Read more
Essential Ocean Variables detection using microfibre devices
Supervisory Team. Prof Gilberto Brambilla, Dr Timothy Lee, Dr Rand Ismaeel. The ORC is offering a fully funded PhD position focused on developing the next generation of Lab-on-Chip (LOC) ocean sensors using femtosecond laser writing technology. Read more
A Mediterranean Sea in the middle of unprecedented climate change
Project overview. The Mediterranean Sea is a climate change hotspot, implicated in the recent dramatic warming and drying of the regional climate. Read more
Crossed wires: examining the influence of nutrient colimitation on phytoplankton ecophysiology
Project overview. Phytoplankton frequently experience scarce supply of multiple nutrients simultaneously in the marine environment, yet mechanisms enabling them to cope with nutrient co-limitation are poorly understood. Read more
A hidden carbon source: understanding ocean and permafrost interactions under the Arctic shelves
Project overview. Underneath the shallow Arctic shelves relict subsea permafrost contains a large reservoir of carbon including methane. Read more
Mapping coral resilience using 3D photogrammetry in the Red Sea
Project overview. Explore coral reef spatial arrangement using high-resolution 3D photogrammetry to underpin Digital Twins. Analyse coral reef dynamics to inform on niche occupancy towards an assessment of community resistance in changing environments. Read more
Environmental conditions sustaining reef coral communities in the Galápagos Archipelago
Project overview. Coral communities in the Galápagos Archipelago survive under extreme conditions in the Eastern Pacific. Their persistence has been repeatedly threatened by a combination of climate-driven and anthropogenic disturbances. Read more
Causes and consequences of abrupt environmental and geomagnetic change under contrasting climate states
Project overview . You will work on exciting sediment archives recovered during a recent major international scientific research expedition to the North Atlantic. Read more
