PhD position in radar glaciology and Greenland Ice Sheet firn hydrology
- Copenhagen, Hovedstaden, Denmark
- GEUS Senior Researcher
Would you like to investigate how Greenland's firn has changed over the past 25 years using airborne radar? About the position This PhD project will use airborne radar data collected over the Greenland Ice Sheet since the early 1990s to reconstruct how the near-surface firn layer has changed over time. As melt intensity on the ice sheet has increased dramatically in recent decades, the firn (compacted snow that covers most of the ice sheet) has been fundamentally altered. Understanding these changes is critical for projecting future sea-level rise and the ice sheet's capacity to store meltwate

- Dr George Datseris
PhD Opportunity: Critical transitions in timeseries from soil & earthquakes From the collapse of the Amazon rainforest to financial markets, from earthquakes to degraded farmland - complex systems in the natural and human world can shift suddenly and irreversibly. Understanding such critical transitions ranks among the most urgent challenges in modern ecosystem sciences and societal preparedness. This PhD project puts you at the frontier of detecting such transitions in time series, drawing from original data from soil and agriculture, as well as geohazards. The project Although difficult to d
PhD Studentship: Ammonia Solid Oxide Fuel Cell for Carbon-Free Energy Production
- Cranfield, United Kingdom
- Dr Mingming Zhu
A fully-funded PhD studentship is offered by EPSRC through Doctoral Landscape Award. The UK Government has plans to achieve Net-Zero by 2050 and hydrogen energy will play a significant role. Due to the low volumetric density of hydrogen, ammonia has emerged as a promising hydrogen carrier and zero-carbon fuel. The overall aim is to develop a novel direct ammonia fuel cell technology that can efficiently convert ammonia into carbon-free energy. In the concept of decarbonisation and renewable energy, hydrogen is considered as the ultimate carbon-free fuel and energy carrier for many applications
