CR2025_51: Human-environment relationships in the Bolivian Amazon since the middle Holocene
This project seeks to improve understanding of past human-environment relationships in Amazonia, over centennial-millennial timescales. Read more
CR2025_36: Quantifying Contributions of Mountain Cryosphere Components to Groundwater Recharge Using Isotopic Analysis
The mountain cryosphere and groundwater reservoirs supply water to vast populations around the world (Scanlon et al., 2023). These resources are particularly important in arid regions, bordered by glaciated mountains, where precipitation is minimal during the warm growing season. Read more
CR2025_35: Unravelling how mycorrhizal and decomposer fungi in forest soils effect wood and litter decomposition and may mitigate climate change
Forest soils are part of the solutions to global climate change by sequestering carbon (C) to compensate for anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO. Read more
CR2025_33: The cat’s whiskers: novel isoscape techniques using vibrissae from wild cats to track climate change impacts
Climate change is continuing to affect ecosystems from individual species to entire population communities. There is a substantial body of literature addressing these areas, however, it is still difficult to predict the ecological impact of climate change due to the nature of the evidence available. Read more
CR2025_29: Remote Sensing of Solar Induced Fluorescence in Forests
Observations of Solar Induced Fluorescence (SIF) are the first direct measurement of the process of photosynthesis that can be made from remote instruments, including satellites and aircraft. Read more
CR2025_26: Impacts of light pollution, and other drivers, on UK moth communities and associated plant pollination
Moths are under-researched organisms within the wider pollinator community and their role as crop and wildflower pollinators has recently been revealed to be much greater than previously thought (Potts et al. Read more
CR2025_24: Keeping pace with climate change: facilitating species dispersal through productive landscapes.
Protecting biodiversity underpins our ability to mitigate and adapt to climate change. The UK is one of the most biodiversity-depleted countries1, primarily due to land-use change (e.g. Read more
CR2025_20: Seaweed cultivation for climate change mitigation: what would the net effect on atmospheric composition and climate be?
The wide scale cultivation of seaweed, over regions of 103-106 km2, has been proposed as a means to capture large quantities of atmospheric CO. Read more
CR2025_17: Designing Intertidal Channels (DITCH): detecting pre-reclamation drainage channels for improved design of saltmarsh restoration schemes
Saltmarsh is an important coastal habitat that provides a range of ecosystem services including carbon storage, flood defence through wave attenuation, nursery grounds for commercial fish species and improvements to water quality. Read more
CR2025_15: Temporal and spatial impacts of conservation actions on British reptiles and amphibians
To address the current biodiversity crisis, studies that follow up conservation projects after their implementation are sorely needed. Read more
CR2025_13: Understanding km and sub-km scale model forecasts of orographically enhanced stratiform precipitation in the UK.
It has long been known that the precipitation locally on and around hills and mountains can be much heavier than in surrounding areas of flatter terrain. Read more
Reconstruction fashion’s plastic transition in the lake sediment record to inform a greener fashion future (Ref: CENTA2025-LU11)
Microplastic fibres (MFs) are the most abundant microplastic shape in the environment. Released from the production, day-to-day wear and laundry of garments, MFs have been identified in aquatic sediments dating to the mid-twentieth century. Read more
Environmental Change in High Arctic Lakes: from the Holocene to the Anthropocene (Ref: CENTA-2025-LU10)
Over the last century, the High Arctic has experienced rapid warming, with the Arctic warming four times as fast the global average since 1979. Read more
