Dear geophysicists,
The Leeds-York NERC Doctoral Training Partnership (http://www.nercdtp.leeds.ac.uk) is offering a number of geophysics-focussed PhD projects awarded through competition (as well as projects in other areas). You must be a UK or EU resident to be eligible, but see the website for more details.
The application deadline is January 11 2016.
