About the Project
The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Net Zero Maritime Energy solutions (N0MES) has a 4-year funded PhD place available for an exceptional researcher. With the support of the University of Liverpool (UoL), Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) and 33 maritime energy sector partners, N0MES PGRs will pursue new, engineering-centred, interdisciplinary research to address four vital net zero challenges currently facing the North West, the UK and beyond:
a) Energy generation using maritime-based renewable energy (e.g. offshore wind, tidal, wave, floating solar, hydrogen, CCS);
b) Distributing energy from offshore to onshore, including port- and hinterland-side impacts and opportunities;
c) Addressing the short- and long-term environmental impacts of offshore and maritimeenvironment renewable energy generation, distribution and storage; and
d) Decommissioning and lifetime extension of existing energy and facilities.

Offshore renewable energy installations, such as wind turbine monopiles and tidal stream supporting frames, often significantly alter fluid dynamics around their foundations, leading to seabed scour—a major risk factor for marine renewable energy devices. Current design methods based on shear force concepts can estimate maximum or equilibrium scour depth under specific flow conditions. However, they are unable to account for scour adaptation during rapid changes in surface waves, e.g. backfilling. Observations also reveal distinct bed deformation and scour formation when structural dynamics intensify under strong lateral loads from energetic storms. Experimental studies indicate that sediment particles' motion within the seabed, unlike flow-driven particle transport above the bed, may play a significant role in bed sliding and pit hole development. This microscopic behaviour is currently missing in the existing methods, which causes the large uncertainties in the predictions.

Therefore, the project aims to address these knowledge gaps by examining the microscopic motion of particles during backfill and around dynamic structures, develop better parameterization of scour processes. The findings will not only shed lights on the fundamental mechanism of wave-structure-sediment interactions under a changing climate, but also provide opportunity to develop a practical tool for addressing the significant challenge involved in expanding offshore renewable energy into deep seas. Specifically, the advanced CFD-DEM model, scourFOAM, jointly developed by UoL and HR Wallingford, will be utilized to investigate particle behaviour alongside existing field and laboratory data. Novel particle-based approach will be used to represent the structural vibrations under lateral loading. Model results will be parameterised into simple engineering terms and a new scour prediction algorithm will be formulated based on structural stability analysis, with the aim of extending current prediction methods to the realistic offshore environments more comprehensively.

We want all of our staff and Students to feel that Liverpool is an inclusive and welcoming environment that actively celebrates and encourages diversity. We are committed to working with students to make all reasonable project adaptations including supporting those with caring responsibilities, disabilities or other personal circumstances. For example, If you have a disability you may be entitled to a Disabled Students Allowance on top of your studentship to help cover the costs of any additional support that a person studying for a doctorate might need as a result.

We believe everyone deserves an excellent education and encourage students from all backgrounds and personal circumstances to apply.

Applicant Eligibility
Candidates will have, or be due to obtain, a Master’s Degree or equivalent from a reputable University in an appropriate field of Engineering.

Three PhD positions on Delta Adaptation at Utrecht University

We have 3 PhD positions available to work on adaptation options and link them to adaptation pathways aiming to promote sustainable deltas.

Global Delta Adaptation Physical Solution Space
This project aims to better understand adaptation measures in deltas globally, to climate-driven flood-risk due to sea-level rise and changes in river flows. You will work on a quantitative approach to assess the effectiveness and physical feasibility of different adaptation measures and pathways under a range of climate and socio-economic scenarios. Methods include model-based flood-risk analysis and pathways generation, which will result in an assessment of delta adaptation pathways and resources globally.

Rhine-Meuse Delta Adaptation to Extreme Compound EventsThis project focuses on understanding adaptation measures and pathways to uncertain compounding climate extremes such as extreme rainfall, river flow, and storm surge. You will work on modelling water management and land use change measures under scenarios involving multiple hazards for the Rhine-Meuse delta. With this model you can assess the physical feasibility of adaptation measures that work with the functioning of the natural environment (“What does the delta want?”). The research will be carried out in collaboration with Rijkswaterstaat, the Dutch government authority for public works and water management.

Strategies to Enhance Sedimentation for Delta AdaptationThis project is about sedimentation in deltas as adaptation strategy to relative sea-level rise. You will explore strategies to reintroduce sedimentation to discover their potential and limitations worldwide. You will develop a generic modeling approach to quantify the effectiveness of these strategies in reducing flood risk. This model can then be used to better understand the role of sediments in delta adaptation, and their potential in combination with other adaptation measures to enhance delta sustainability.

Come work with us in Utrecht, the World's best city for cycling!

Application deadline is 12 May 2024.

Coastal Geomorphology Research Technician Position Opening- Michigan State University

A full-time (40 hour per week) hourly research technician position is available in the MSU Coastal Processes and Geomorphology Lab (www.coastalgeomorphology.com), part of the Department of Geography, Environment, and Spatial Sciences at Michigan State University. This technician would be involved in a variety of coastal geomorphology and geology research projects including but not limited to beach and nearshore sediment transport studies, monitoring of coastal change associated with shore protection/coastal management actions, and process-based studies of coastal bluff evolution. These projects involve substantial field work that utilizes drones, GPS, small, occupied research vessels, and remotely operated vessels. Research studies are funded by a variety of agencies including the National Park Service, the State of Michigan (Coastal Management Program), and the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. 

The technician will assist and lead field operations to coastal sites throughout the Great Lakes, but primarily within Michigan, Illinois, and Ohio. Additionally, the technician will be responsible for processing and analyzing coastal change data using a variety of computer programs, including ArcGIS, Agisoft Metashape, and Golden Software’s Surfer. The technician will be expected to (under the supervision of the PI) analyze and interpret data and write peer-reviewed manuscripts. Opportunities will be provided to the technician to present research findings at scientific conferences and public outreach events.

The minimum educational qualification for this position is a bachelor’s degree in Geography, Geology, Earth Science, Environmental Science, Oceanography, Marine Science, or related discipline. A master’s degree in these fields is preferred. . Demonstrated experience in coastal (or related environmental science field) is required. Candidates from diverse backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply.
The location of this position is in East Lansing, MI. Anticipated start date for the position is June 1, 2024, but is negotiable. The hourly rate is commensurate with experience but will generally range from $20-$30 per hour.
