Impact of coral reef fish personalities on species persistence under environmental change
Coral reefs are undergoing substantial change around the world as mass coral bleaching and other disturbance events disrupt ecological communities. Animal behaviour is thought to be a… Read More »Impact of coral reef fish personalities on species persistence under environmental change
Do biogenic VOCs protect plant productivity under multiple environmental stress?
With the global population projected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, food security is a growing concern in many world regions. Rising temperatures, changes in… Read More »Do biogenic VOCs protect plant productivity under multiple environmental stress?
Climate change impacts on cold-adapted butterflies: discovering the mechanisms and testing potential mitigation approaches
Cold-adapted species, including those restricted to mountains, are highly vulnerable to climate change. For UK butterflies, cold-adapted species are similarly threatened by climate change-mediated decline, with some… Read More »Climate change impacts on cold-adapted butterflies: discovering the mechanisms and testing potential mitigation approaches
Sustainable grazing and mountain soils; safeguarding water provision through soil functions and resilience
Can our upland landscapes provide clean drinking water, store carbon, maintain biodiversity, act as a platform for leisure activities and provide a rural economy around grazing all… Read More »Sustainable grazing and mountain soils; safeguarding water provision through soil functions and resilience
Fracking magma: field and experimental investigation of hydrofracture in volcanic systems
Tuffisite veins are particle-filled hydraulic fractures formed around and within volcanic conduits, which are opened by and provide transient pathways for flow of pressurised magmatic fluids. Tuffisites… Read More »Fracking magma: field and experimental investigation of hydrofracture in volcanic systems
What lies beneath: biofilm fingerprints for nutrient inputs to rivers
The project: Changes in the availability of nitrogen and carbon within rivers, for example associated with anthropogenic inputs from sources such as fertilisers or wastewater, have profound… Read More »What lies beneath: biofilm fingerprints for nutrient inputs to rivers
Taking the P in the future: new technologies for phosphorus capture from wastewater
The project: Phosphorus is central to globally-significant challenges, including the need for sustainable approaches to reduce nutrient enrichment within aquatic ecosystems. This project will develop new technologies… Read More »Taking the P in the future: new technologies for phosphorus capture from wastewater
Liquid water and Antarctic ice sheet stability
Our current best estimates suggest that enough ice could be lost from Antarctica by the end of this century to contribute over a metre to… Read More »Liquid water and Antarctic ice sheet stability
