Natural and engineered ‘salty seals’ under repository conditions: Implications for nuclear waste disposal The University of Manchester in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in Climate Resilience of Infrastructure to Rainfall (PGR-P-1395), supervised by Professor David Connolly in the School of Civil Engineering . This project focuses on how climate change-driven rainfall affects transport, geotechnical, and structural infrastructure. Research themes include rainfall-induced slope collapse, geotechnical instability, soil shrink-swell cycles, water ponding on roofs and bridge decks, structural overloading, drainage, and adap...

PhD project at the University of Southampton on Sustainable Materials for Carbon Dioxide Removal . This postgraduate research project explores mineral carbonation and the development of highly reactive mineral materials that can accelerate natural carbon capture processes. The work sits at the interface of chemistry , earth science , materials science and environmental sustainability , with a strong focus on scalable carbon dioxide removal technologies for net-zero emissions. The project is join...

Fully funded EPSRC PhD opportunity at Heriot-Watt University in partnership with ZEISS Group , based in the SET-IT: Subsurface Energy Transition & Innovation Centre and DigiPorFlow . The project asks a fundamental question in 3D imaging : how do we know whether a feature in a 3D image is real? The successful PhD student will work on measuring effective 3D resolution , comparing voxel size with what an instrument and reconstruction actually resolve, and testing whether AI super-resolution recover...
