Climate change impacts (and variability) on livelihoods and key sectors of the economy / economic models
Several International reports (E.g. IPCC) identify climate change as one of the defining global challenges during recent times. Read more
A New Generation of Dam Assessment: An Artificial Intelligence Approach
A significant number of dams are in service to supply domestic and industrial water, generate hydroelectric power as well as control flood effects on the society they serve. Read more

Overview. This exciting . WIRe CDT. project, in collaboration with . Northumbrian Water,. Read more
PhD Studentship in Geoscience: Mechanochemical-UV generation of perchlorates and reactive nitrogen on Mars (funded by the UK Space Agency)
Overview. Interested in understanding the past and present habitability of Mars? This PhD will investigate the mechanisms and rates of perchlorate and nitrate generation on Mars, linking to past and future in situ measurements on the Martian surface. Read more
An assessment of environmental and anthropogenic pressures on peatland surfaces
Blanket bogs are a rare ombrotrophic (rain-fed) type of peatland mainly located in oceanic areas (Lindsay et al., 1988). Read more

At the University of Essex we are passionate about our postgraduate research community. Our vision of Essex researchers is one of activists, advocates, change-makers, innovators, reformers and disruptive thinkers. Read more
SCENARIO: Mitigating greenhouse gas releases from contaminated urban re-development sites (SC2023_25)
Background. The construction industry is a major contributor to global carbon emissions and urgently needs to address this to reduce its carbon emissions. Read more
Space Plasma Turbulence Throughout the Solar System and Beyond
The vast majority of the visible Universe is in a plasma state, and one of the most widespread behaviors observed in such plasmas is turbulence – the transfer of energy across a broad range of scales that leads to complex chaotic motions, structure formation, and energy conversion. Read more
PhD in Cosmic Landscapes: disambiguating cosmogenic nuclides in detrital populations
The most common way to estimate the erosion rate at the landscape scale is to calculate the mean residence time of sediment in a river basin by measuring the accumulation of cosmogenic nuclides (rare isotopes formed in the near surface due to the bombardment of cosmic radiation) within the modern river sediment. Read more
GREENCDT Environmental radiochemistry to support criticality safety of nuclear waste disposal: investigating the co-mobility of actinides and neutron poisons
A fully-funded PhD studentship is available to a graduate with interests in radiochemistry and radioactive waste challenges. Disposal of nuclear legacy waste is one of the biggest scientific and engineering challenges of the 21st Century. Read more
Timing is critical: improving our understanding of global landslide risk
Background. Landslides that reach catastrophic failure cause extensive damage to global infrastructure every year, as well as a high number of casualties. Read more
EPSRC/NNL - Upscaling fundamental controls on fluid migration in the Mercia Mudstone Group based on 3D multi-scale imaging and modelling
Objective. The main objective of this PhD project is to better understand and upscale the fundamental controls on fluid migration in the Mercia Mudstone Group based on 3D multi-scale imaging, modelling of large 3D data sets, and the application of machine learning approaches. Read more

Discharges of treated sewage wastewaters to groundwater-dominated river ecosystems: processes and impacts in headwater chalk streams
The project seeks to develop understanding of the impacts of sewage-related phosphorus on chalk streams. Where treated sewage wastewaters are discharged to chalk groundwater, their relatively high levels of P augment the usually low levels of groundwater P. Read more
In-situ disposal of cementitious wastes at UK nuclear sites
This fully funded UK Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) PhD bursary provides an exciting opportunity to pursue postgraduate research relating to waste management during the decommissioning of UK nuclear sites. Read more
