Integrating weather and climate information into innovations and metrics for agricultural advisories
Background. Rainfed agriculture is a vital source of food and income for subsistence farmers in Kenya. Agricultural yields across Kenya are highly impacted by variations in rainfall on timescales from days to decades, with climate change altering the profile of rainfall-related risk. Read more

GW4+ DOCTORAL LANDSCAPE TRAINING PARTNERSHIP (DLTP): Dynamic coastal risk for a changing climate
Project aims and methods. Over the summer of 2023, unusually warm and wet conditions triggered hazardous coastal landslides across the UK, underscoring the risks to life and infrastructure posed by such events. Read more
Integrating modern and long-term ecology to inform UK peatland fire management in a changing climate
Applications are invited for a 3.5 years PhD studentship. The studentship will start on 01 October 2025. Project Description. Scientific background . Read more
Heathland flammability responses to environmental change (CENTA 2025-B18)
More extreme weather events are being felt across the globe, driven by increased CO2 levels in the atmosphere. Shifts in regional climate and weather are a critical influence on wildfire occurrence and behaviour, influencing the spread and intensity of burning of vegetation. Read more
