Ecology for conservation and livelihoods in Madagascar's savannas
The student will examine links between the community ecology and political ecology of Madagascar's savannas for sustainable livelihoods and conservation.
Thermal sensitivity of UK butterflies in space versus time
Predicting how species will respond to climate change is one of the major challenges that today's ecologists are faced with.A very common approach for projecting a species dis...
Melt layers in ice cores
Warming surface temperatures result in surface melt, which can percolate through ice layers destroying paleoclimate information contained in ice cores.Antarctic surface melt is gen...
Timeline to collapse
Biological systems on which humanity relies for food, fresh water, and clean air are becoming increasingly stressed. One way in which such stress manifests is through loss of resil...
Cumulative impacts of multiple stressors: improving temporal and biological realism
In our changing world there is an increasing urgency to understand interactions among multiple environmental stressors, such as pollution and warming.Much of the concern surroundin...
Do agricultural microplastics undermine food security and sustainable development in developing countries?
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...

Drivers and Repercussions of UK Insect Declines (DRUID)
Due to their vast numbers and diversity, insects dominate natural ecosystems and processes. Wholesale insect declines could have profound consequences. Yet despite growing public c...
Sources, Sinks and Solutions for Impacts of Plastics on Coastal Communities in Viet Nam
The 3SIP2C project is focused on quantifying the types and amount of plastic waste entering the coastal margin of Vietnam, and understanding the pathways and destination of that pl...

Fertility of subduction and post subduction magmatism associated with porphyry- and epithermal-Cu-Au mineralisation in the Aegean using zircon geochro
The UK has passed legislation to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This will require new geological resources to underpin non fossil fuel transport and energy genera...
Reducing the impacts of plastic waste in the Eastern Pacific Ocean
The presence of plastic leaking into the environment is a system failure of monumental proportion that threatens the marine ecosystem and causes physical and chemical contamination...
Oh I do like to grow beside the seaside: understanding how and why plants produce DMSP
Billions of tonnes of the organosulfur compound dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) are made each year by marine algae, corals and bacteria, but some plants also make this important...

Sustainable Plastic Attitudes to benefit Communities and their Environments (SPACES)
Between 400,000 and 1 million people die each year in LMICs due to diseases related to mismanaged waste. Waste management is, however, a complex area, which affects multiple stakeh...
Muddying the waters: cation exchange processes as a major control on weathering fluxes?
Chemical weathering is the process by which rocks dissolve in rainwater, which is naturally acidic. This is because atmospheric carbon dioxide dissolves in rain to form carbonic ac...
