River morphodynamic responses to climate change in Greenland
Rivers in Greenland are responding to some of the most rapid and extreme climate change on Earth. Rapidly rising air temperatures in the arctic are...

The Wetropolis flood demonstrator [1] is a portable set-up designed to provide the general public a visualisation of what a return period is for extreme rainfall and...
Our ability to confidently predict the safety of a nuclear waste repository depends on our ability to correctly model the interaction of fluids residing in the host rock surrounding the repository and the potential for fluid...
Fluid-solid multiphase flows in environmental systems repeatedly develop similar landform patterns – understanding why is a fundamental challenge. Modelling of such flows is complicated by the range of...
Convection in rocky or icy planetary mantles controls the evolution of the terrestrial planets and many of the moons in the solar system. This convection...
Exciting recent developments in Earth Science have instigated a paradigm shift in understanding the role of mush accumulation -- where rock exists as a combination...
This is a mathematical and theoretical project which will explore the relationship between severe storms and large-scale circulation in the atmosphere. The project will exploit...
Convection within Earth’s fluid core generates its planetary magnetic field; spatial and temporal variations of the geomagnetic field can thus be used to study the...
Earth’s jet streams control many features of weather and climate in the extratropics including in the UK and Europe. Most winter weather extremes in these...
The movement of Earth’s liquid core is responsible for generating our planetary magnetic field, yet we know very little about its structure and dynamics because...
