Learning to adapt to an uncertain future: linking genes, trees, people and processes for more resilient treescapes (newLEAF)
This proposal addresses Theme 3: Resilience of UK Treescapes to global change. Treescapes - our woodlands, our forests, our urban trees - are critical to our environment, our he...
NI: Enhancing global hydrological models with local knowledge
The assessment of water resources at both the global and regional scales is currently a major concern for scientists and policy makers due to the increasing incidence of water scar...
Bringing 210Pb dating into the 21st century
In this collaborative project between the UK and the USA, we will apply a newly developed and highly promising statistical technique to a large number of lakes as important natural...
Geological safety and optimisation in mining operations: towards a new understanding of fracture damage, heterogeneity and anisotropy.
The current economic viability and longevity of open cast and underground mines that are extracting strategically important natural resources are limited in many areas by complex g...
Learning to adapt to an uncertain future: linking genes, trees, people and processes for more resilient treescapes (newLEAF)
Treescapes - our woodlands, our forests, our urban trees - are critical to our environment, our health and well-being and our ability to transition to a zero carbon economy via pla...
The North Atlantic Climate System Integrated Study (ACSIS) - 1 year extension
Major changes are occurring across the North Atlantic climate system: in oceanic and atmospheric temperatures and circulation, in sea ice thickness and extent, and in key atmospher...
PUCCA: Photosynthetic Underpinnings of Coccolithophore CAlcification
Coccolithophores generate over 1 billion tonnes of calcium carbonate every year in the ocean. This calcium carbonate is a foundation of marine ecosystem and the ocean carbon cycle....

Doctoral Training Partnerships: a range of postgraduate training is funded by the Research Councils. For information on current funding routes, see the common terminology at https:...
UKESM 1 Year Extension
Global climate change is one of the leading environmental threats facing mankind. To develop appropriate mitigation and adaptation strategies requires accurate projections of the f...

Frontiers of instability in marine ecosystems and carbon export (Marine Frontiers)
Marine Frontiers is an innovative project that will push the frontiers of knowledge on the limits to stability in marine ecosystem functioning. It will introduce, for the first tim...

Atmospheric fluxes of mineral dust-derived soluble trace elements to the ocean using thorium isotopes (ThorMap)
Biological productivity (the growth of phytoplankton) is limited by the availability of iron (Fe) in at least 30% of the ocean. Fe is so insoluble in seawater that the large amount...
Elucidating the consequences of picocyanobacterial lipid remodelling for global marine primary production estimates
The oceans play a major role in determining world climate. In part, this is due to the production of oxygen and the consumption of carbon dioxide (CO2) by very small, single celled...
The role of epigenetics in evolution
Every young biologist learns about DNA, the genetic code and how mutations in that code lead to variation. However, it is less well known that a gene's activity or function can be...
CERAF
Climate and environmental (CE) risks (CER) to our economy and society are accelerating. CER include climate-related physical risks such as floods, storms, or changing growing seaso...
Earth's Core as a Layered System
Establishing the origin of Earth's magnetic field is crucial for understanding planetary habitability and evolution and is widely recognised as a fundamental goal in Earth Science....

Did hydrothermal vents push the frontiers of habitability on the early Earth?
Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are essential nutrients to all life on Earth. Scarcity of these nutrients can limit biological productivity while unrestricted supplies can lead to...
Tropical forests responses to a changing climate: a quest at the interface between trait-based ecology, forest dynamics and remote sensing
The most pressing questions in ecology and ecosystems science today focus on how communities of organisms respond to global environmental changes. How is biodiversity affected by c...
