FSE PhD President's Doctoral Scholarship: Geospatial Foundation Modelling to Improve Agricultural Monitoring in Smallholder Farming Systems The University of Manchester in United Kingdom

[Fees plus a stipend of £21,805 per annum for 2026/7.] PhD Studentship at the University of Exeter focused on advancing multi-mission satellite radar methods for monitoring permafrost degradation and erosion in a changing Arctic. This project addresses a major environmental monitoring challenge: Arctic permafrost thaw is driving ground deformation, instability, and erosion across remote regions where in situ observations are limited. The PhD will develop a new multi-mission InSAR framework that ...

The Hydrological Remote Sensing Lab (HydroRS) at the University of South Florida is recruiting Ph.D. students for research in hydrological remote sensing starting Spring 2027 or Fall 2027. The lab works on interdisciplinary water resources research using satellite observations, remote sensing, AI/ML, and geospatial technologies to study the changing water cycle and water crises at regional to global scales. Example topics include hydrological extremes, trends and drivers of freshwater storage, h...

Applications are open for the 2027 CENTA PhD studentships, with projects across environmental science, Earth systems, climate, biodiversity, water, pollution, environmental modelling, data science, and Earth observation. The post highlights two projects involving Heiko Balzter at the University of Leicester, focused on Earth observation, environmental change, and using data and modelling to understand a changing environment. These are project-based PhD opportunities open to UK and international ...

[Full fees and a stipend of £21,805 per annum for 2026/7.] This PhD studentship at the University of Exeter focuses on understanding how tropical forest microclimates are changing under fire, degradation, land-use change, and climate change in Amazonia. The project sits at the intersection of environmental sensing , computational modelling , data analytics , and remote sensing , with a strong emphasis on predicting fine-scale climate conditions that influence tree mortality, drought stress, and ...

[Fees plus a stipend of £21,805 per annum for 2026/7.] University of Exeter is offering a PhD studentship on Digital twinning for post-mining environmental transitions . This project addresses the challenge of what happens to mines, quarries, and other extractive landscapes when ore bodies become exhausted or uneconomic, with a focus on building more sustainable and resilient post-mining futures. The research explores how former mine sites can be reused for a range of purposes, including resourc...
