Turbulence in density currents
Currents, driven by a density difference from the ambient surroundings, are an important class of geophysical flow, pertinent to atmospheric, terrestrial, deep marine and inner...
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.

Large woody debris in rivers has important effects on biogeochemical processes and subsequent ecosystem functioning. Recently, environmental policies have been implemented that encourage reintroduction of...
Accurate prediction of (rotating) convection is important in Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP). Convection is also coupled to the phase changes of water in the atmosphere...
Ventilation of buildings by passive buoyancy and wind driven mechanisms is often exploited to maximize the displacement of contaminants so that good levels of indoor...
This project will collect and analyse new field observations of the Indian Monsoon system, in order to develop new dynamical models of the monsoon circulation....
Assessment of external spaces is of primary importance due to the close interaction between, and use by, people of both internal and external spaces. A...
The main objectives of the proposed research is to develop fully coupled multiphysics models to provide the capability of addressing the issues that arise from...
Transmission through infectious aerosols is a well-recognised route of infection for a number of diseases including TB, measles, SARS and influenza. Despite evidence for airborne...
Underwater landslides generate some of the largest and most dangerous sedimentary flows in the world. These flows may cause catastrophic damage to infrastructure in their...
On earth, and every solid planetary body studied in this solar system, geophysical flows sculpt the landscape in environments including rivers, glaciers, deserts, deltas, shallow...
