Attributable impacts from extreme weather events
Imagine a severe weather event occurs, causing devastating impacts to a particular region. One question that is repeatedly asked to climate scientists by politicians, disaster resp...
Impacts of bottom trawling on seabed carbon storage
Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research.This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because i...
Developing paper 'origami' eDNA sensors for real-time public surveillance of invasive species
Invasive species are a major cause of biodiversity loss and can cause significant economic damage. Surveillance is a vital tool for invasive species management.Early detection at t...
IMPULSE: Taking the Pulse of the Icelandic Mantle Plume
The mantle is the largest component of the Earth, comprising 84% of our planet's volume. Although the mantle is solid, over geological time it churns vigorously like a fluid i...
Enabling Sustainable Wind Energy Expansion in Seasonally Stratified Seas (eSWEETS3)
The need for the UK to shift to NetZero was highlighted at COP26 in Glasgow, and there is a clear need for UK energy security. UK policy to achieving these is based on massive expa...

Assessing ocean-forced, marine-terminating glacier change in Greenland during climatic warm periods and its impact on marine productivity (Kang-Glac)
The receding Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is now the largest contributor to global sea-level rise. A major driving force behind this recession is the encroachment of warm ocean water...

MaD-OPS: Monitoring & Detection of Organic Pollution from Sewage: Implementation of an agile sensing network for informing river health
There is a compelling need for new technologies and approaches to help improve UK river water quality. Recent (2020) assessments revealed that only 36% of surface waters (rivers, l...
Dynamic and Adaptable Monitoring of Greenhouse Gas Emissions with Mobile Robots
Precise and representative quantification of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of mitigation strategies aimed at achieving net-zero targe...
Environmental and ecological drivers of tropical peatland methane dynamics across spatial scales
Tropical peatlands are a globally important carbon store, and a significant source of rising atmospheric concentrations of methane (CH4). CH4 is a potent GHG, 25 times more powerfu...
Resolving the structure and nature of the Highland Boundary Fault through high-resolution geophysical investigations
Unravel the role the Highland Fault played in the building of Scotland, and use it as an analogue to understand present day faulting activity around the world.
Innovation, extinction and ecological change in an unstable ocean
This project will investigate collapse, recovery and innovation in marine ecosystems under changing oxygen levels, a key driver of ecological and evolutionary change across timesca...
Does competition between hydrogen and methane consumption by soil microbes lead to climate impacts?
Emissions of Hydrogen (H2) can act as a secondary greenhouse gas that distorts the atmospheric methane (CH4) sink. Soil bacteria can utilise H2 and CH4, but ecological mechanisms u...
Enhanced carbon export driven by internal tides over the mid-Atlantic ridge (CarTRidge)
Plankton in the ocean, microscopic plants (phytoplankton) and tiny animals (zooplankton) that eat the plants, are vital to marine life and to Earth's climate. They form the ba...
