Savannah Worne The NERC Isotope Geoscience Facilities Steering Committee is an excellent opportunity for UK based researchers to apply for funding with which they can undertake stable isotope analyses at the NERC Isotope Geosciences Facilities (NIGF; http://www.bgs.ac.uk/sciencefacilities/nerc.html). Applying and being awarded this grant was an essential part of my PhD research and will provide a […]

Connor McCarron In my PhD project I am investigating the transport of sand and gravel mixtures in shelf seas through bedload transport. When analysing shelf seabed morphodynamics, it is largely ignored that the seabed commonly consists of sand and gravel mixtures, often a result of reworked paleo-glacial deposits. Advances in predicting the transport of mixed […]
