I am a first year PhD student based at UKCEH Lancaster, where I am investigating mineralogical controls on the stability of Soil Carbon. I have a background in environmental geoscience as an undergraduate and masters student, where I assisted in a whole ecosystem approach to investigate the effects of elevated CO2 on an mature deciduous […]

As a PhD student at Durham University, my work covers active tectonics, structural geology, geomechanics, and geochemistry. My project aims to refine understanding of reactions occurring on faults during earthquakes, with a focus on fluid-rock exchanges. Research questions include: how do coseismic reaction products effect fault strength and, are there isotopic signatures to mechanical processes? […]

Hi there! I’m Beth, a second year in the Centre for Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of East Anglia in partnership with AutoNaut Ltd. under the ARIES DTP. My PhD project: Observing Ocean-Atmosphere Interactions from the Poles to the Tropics with an AutoNaut Uncrewed Surface Vessel This involves using a 5m AutoNaut surface […]

I am an ecologist, and my primary research interest is how animals survive and adapt within human-modified environments. I am currently working on my PhD project on the One Health effects of trace metal contamination from derelict lead mines in Wales. I have been collecting environmental and animal samples from abandoned mines and surrounding areas […]
