Dear All,

 

A fully funded PhD is now available at Dundee Department of Geography (pdf attached), open to UK residents.

Fieldwork will be based at and around the British Geological Survey Glacial Observatory at Virkisjökull in SE Iceland, where we have an established and comprehensive monitoring facility (http://bgs.ac.uk/research/glaciermonitoring/home.html ).

 

I would be very grateful if you could circulate around your departments, and please let any good recently qualified or prospective undergrad or MSc students know of the studentship. Closing date for applications is the 1st of June.
