Project summary

We are offering an exciting PhD opportunity, in the School of Earth and Environment, to undertake novel research targeting one of the major air quality challenges facing the UK – the ammonia problem Ammonia (NH3) is emitted primarily from diffuse agricultural sources and difficult to quantify for legislative purposes. Unlike other air pollutants, gaseous NH3 emissions have not decreased over recent decades and continue to promote extensive formation of ammonium nitrate aerosol – a hazardous air pollutant. Therefore, this project aims to exploit state-of-the-art satellite observations and modelling to better constrain NH3 emissions, their temporal changes (from a legislative point of view) and to quantify the impact of these emissions changes on key air pollutants such as PM2.5 (particulate matter with a diameter less than 2.5 microns).

For further information, including an outline PhD plan, please see the project page on the University of Leeds website.

Please state your entry requirements plus any necessary or desired background

Applicants to this scholarship in the School of Earth and Environment should normally have an Upper Second or First class undergraduate degree (or international equivalent) in a qualitative discipline such as Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Environmental Sciences, Physical Geography, Computer Sciences, Natural Sciences.
