Dear colleague,
Please find below links to two prospective PhD project outlines to
begin in September 2013. These are related to forthcoming hot-water
ice drilling and glaciological investigations in Svalbard under the
umbrella of the Calving Rates and Impact on Sea Level (CRIOS) research
programme led by Professor Doug Benn, based at UNIS. The successful
PhD applicants will work closely with both Doug and their UK-based
advisors, Bryn Hubbard at Aberystwyth and Nick Hulton at Edinburgh.
The two project outlines are:
Englacial ice properties and processes revealed by borehole geophysics
on surge-type glaciers in Svalbard (application deadline Jan. 31st,
2013. Information available from: http://users.aber.ac.uk/byh/)
Investigating water pressure controls on glacier sliding rates on a
calving glacier in Svalbard (application deadline 1 February 2013,
Information available from:
