The prevalence of eccentricity forcing on evolution and the carbon cycle

Detailed morphological records of coccolithophores over the last 2 million years coupled with whole genome analysis have, for the first time, revealed that there is a strong 400 kyr periodicity to the speciation and evolution of these calcifying algae1,2,7. Read more

Tidal dissipation, magmatism and mantle convection on Io

Intense magmatism and volcanism in Jupiter’s moon Io is driven by tidal heating. Magmatic segregation from the mantle and heat-piping across the crust exports the tidal heat to space, maintaining a thermal equilibrium. Read more

The potential of seismic monitoring during urban tunnel boring

Severe geological changes ahead of a tunnel boring machine pose a risk to boring operations. Techniques such as seismic-while-drilling (SWD, Petronio & Poletto, 2002) are used in real-time to monitor geological changes ahead of the tunnel boring machine. Read more

Robustly imaging mantle upwellings under isolated oceanic islands

Mantle upwellings link the deep mantle to the surface and regulate Earth’s outgassing and internal temperature, which is a fundamental control on the atmosphere and our planet’s habitability. Read more

QUADRAT DTP: Crevasse squeeze ridges: a fingerprint of unstable glacier flow?

This fully funded, 42-month PhD project is part of the QUADRAT Doctoral Training Partnership. Crevasse squeeze ridges (CSRs) are somewhat enigmatic landforms, though our understanding of their formation and preservation mechanisms are now near fully understood1. Read more
