Please note that the PhD projects listed are examples of projects offered to current CDT students and as such are not generally available to prospective students.
Moving from forecasting to nowcasting flood events to reduce risks requires technique innovations to prioritise decision-making. This studentship aims to develop, test, and validate a...
This project aims to enhance the performance of atmospheric chemical sensing by developing a combined experimental and computational approach to analysing and optimising the design...
This project will use the Ellipsoidal Parcel-in-Cell (EPIC) model to study the fluid dynamics of density currents (also known as gravity currents). EPIC provides a...
This project seeks to advance our ability to forecast the most important driver of year-to-year climate variability, the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). ENSO causes...
The proposed project primarily addresses the research challenge of integrating low-carbon energy systems for sustainable and economically affordable energy conversion, storage and utilisation. Low carbon...
Synthetic objects in natural environments are often irreversibly inhabited by micro-organisms, especially bacterial cells, connected by a web of extracellular polymeric substances to form surface-colonising...
Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) play a pivotal role in determining the properties of clouds and their role in climate change (Murray et al. 2021). However, our...
This PhD project offers an exciting opportunity to investigate the role of environmental contamination in infection transmission, focusing on fomite transmission (via contaminated surfaces). This...
Submarine fan systems are volumetrically the largest sedimentary bodies on Earth. Traditionally, application of research into submarine fan evolution has focused on the distribution of...
Jet streams are fundamental geophysical fluid dynamical features within Earth’s rotating, stratified atmosphere. Unusual behaviour of the jet streams is frequently associated with extreme weather...
