Funded PhD in Earthquake-Triggered Landslides and Regolith Processes University of Plymouth in United Kingdom

PhD Studentship at the University of Sheffield on the role of icebergs in heat, freshwater, and nutrient exchanges in Greenland’s fjords. This UKRI-funded project is part of the Fjords Exchange Heat, Freshwater and Nutrients between the Greenland Ice Sheet and the North Atlantic Ocean (FEISO) programme. The research sits at the intersection of Earth Science , Environmental Science , Geography , Physics , and Biology , with strong links to glaciology, ocean circulation modelling, remote sensing, ...

PhD opportunity with Imago (SDR UK Imagery Data Service) for a project on flood mapping , earth observation , satellite imagery , and real-time flood prediction . The project aims to develop a national-scale flood mapping system that integrates satellite-derived embeddings with hydrodynamic simulations to support prediction of flooding anywhere in the UK. The successful candidate will be based at Newcastle University and co-supervised by Maria Valasia Peppa from the Imago team. This is a PhD ope...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in Satellite Monitoring of Environmental and Climate Risks (PGR-P-2517). This project sits in Civil Engineering and focuses on remote sensing , Earth Observation , Synthetic Aperture Radar , multispectral imaging , artificial intelligence , and GIS for monitoring environmental change and climate hazards. Research themes include rapid flood and disaster impact mapping, drought and soil-moisture tracking, temperature and rainfall anomaly analysis, vegetat...

PhD opportunity at Newcastle University in the School of Engineering on bridging physics and Earth Observation for real-time flood mapping . This project focuses on geospatial foundation models , remote sensing , machine learning , hydrology , and civil engineering to build a national-scale flood prediction system for the UK. The research aims to combine satellite-derived embeddings (including Sentinel data and potentially higher-resolution imagery) with hydrodynamic simulations to improve flood...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in Satellite Monitoring of Geotechnical Stability (PGR-P-1277). This project sits in Civil Engineering and focuses on using satellite monitoring , Earth Observation , remote sensing , Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) , InSAR , multispectral imaging, GIS, AI, and data fusion to monitor slopes, earthworks, subsidence, coastal zones, sea defences, and landslide precursors. The research theme explores how spaceborne data can detect millimetric ground deformat...
