The adverse health effects of air pollution are the main drivers of policies to improve air quality both nationally and internationally. Although many pollutants have… Read More »Safe indoors? Monitoring and modelling personal exposure to air pollution
It is now widely recognised that hydrological and biogeochemical processes that occur at the interface of groundwater (GW) and surface water (SW) can have a… Read More »Revealing hydrological and biogeochemical heterogeneity at the groundwater-surface water interface using geophysics
Malaysia’s North Selangor peat swamp forest is experiencing rapid and large-scale conversion of pristine swampland to oil palm agriculture, contrary to prevailing environmental guidelines. This… Read More »Remote sensing investigation of how oil palm cultivation is degrading Malaysia’s tropical peatland ecosystem services
This project will evaluate how incorporating interspecific ecological interactions into species distribution models affects predictions of species’ responses to climate change. Although ecological theory has… Read More »Predicting climate change effects on Anolis lizards using physiological models and ecological traits
After remaining stable for almost a decade, methane (CH4) concentrations in the atmosphere have started to rise again since 2007. Increasing emissions from the warming… Read More »Plant-climate interactive feedbacks to peatland methane dynamics
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and aid sustainable development, there is an urgent need to support our electricity generating capacity through the development of low… Read More »Optimal exploitation of multiple marine renewable energy resources
The spatial and temporal dynamics of soil moisture content can have a critical effect on slope stability in landslides and engineered earthworks. But measurement of… Read More »New geophysical approaches for monitoring landslides in safety-critical slopes
Toxic cyanobacterial blooms have a damaging effect on water quality in lakes. Hot summers typically enable formation of a shallow mixed layer at the surface… Read More »Measuring and modelling the effects of climate change on cyanobacteria in lakes
Variability in the magnetic field generated by dynamic processes outside the solid Earth can occur over a variety of timescales. As well as limiting the… Read More »Mapping the drivers of geomagnetically induced currents
Global change including population driven land use change is putting tropical forests under pressure. Changes in forest plant and soil biodiversity as a result of… Read More »Logging impacts on forest soil biodiversity and function in Borneo
