Yesterday, CAER celebrated our members’ achievements at the End-of-Term Reception with a great food and a puzzle activity. 🎉 Thank you to all who joined us and helped make this the final event of 2025 such a memorable one!

If you are interested in the design, management, and performance of drinking-water reservoirs, please go through this recently published paper by CAER researchers. Congratulations to the whole team on this excellent achievement! 💧📄👏 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

🎉 Congratulations to Qingping Wang on her first paper as a corresponding author! 🎉 We are thrilled to share this new publication titled "New pyroelectric figures of merit for harvesting dynamic temperature fluctuations". pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Professor Corwin Wright shares his work in the Channel 5 documentary '#Volcano'. Episode 2 highlights Wright’s research on the 2022 Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption, which was one of the most explosive volcanic events of the modern era. www.channel5.com/show/volcano...

🎉 Congrats to Sam Rose (Dept. of Architecture & Civil Engineering + CAER) for winning Best Student Paper at ICDC 2025! His LIDAR work on wave runup at a Maldivian atoll offers key insights into sea-level rise impacts. 🌊 Part of the EU ARISE project. www.plymouth.ac.uk/research/coa...

I do hope you caught @corwinwright.bsky.social ’s appearance on national UK TV on Wednesday night! If not, do check it out on catch-up - a brilliant explanation of how volcanic eruptions can disrupt infrastructure systems across the globe.

On 27th March in Bath, UK: join a one-day conference showcasing innovative and practical approaches to urban conservation and sustainable development. Learn how these disciplines can work together to create better places for both people and the planet. www.sdg-x-conservation-conference.org.uk

Exciting News! 🎉 We are thrilled to share that CAERer James Rand has officially earned his PhD! 🏅 His research focused on developing low-cost, autonomous micro underwater gliders to enhance water quality monitoring in reservoirs. 📸 Photo: James with his 3rd generation prototype

Excited to share a fantastic paper authored by CAER members! The title of their paper is 'An Investigation into the Thermal and Hygric Performance of Bio-Based Wall Systems'. Please read more about their work here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We are thrilled to share that Dr Neil Hindley (PI) and Prof Corwin Wright (Co-I) have been awarded ~£350k from NERC for TeamX-FLOW – a joint project with BAS to support the scientific investigation of data from a major international field campaign in the Alps! 🌍🗻 www.teamx-programme.org

Exciting Opportunity! 🚀 An incredible opportunity for a KTP Associate focused on advancing Self-Healing Concrete Solutions for Wastewater Infrastructure! 🌍💧 Deadline: 29th January 2025 www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DLI637/k...

Big things happening on gravel beaches! 🌊 Led by Dr Chris Blenkinsopp and PhD student Sam Rose, we’ve installed a solar-powered Lidar tower to monitor beach topography every low tide this winter at 3 sites: Borth (Wales), Chesil Beach (Dorset), and Pevensey Bay (E Sussex).

Our colleague, Dr Tristan Kershaw, has recently published the 2nd edition of his book "Climate Change Resilience in the Urban Environment", offering fresh perspectives on green and blue infrastructure, urban geometry, comfort, heat islands, and energy usage store.ioppublishing.org/page/detail/...

An article with some thoughts from @kevinpaine.bsky.social of CAER on whether concrete's climate impact can be cut.

Arctic sea ice is declining, impacting ecosystems, weather, and solar absorption. Jonathan Cleverly and Philippe Blondel studied marine mammal calls and ice processes using acoustics to explore seasonal changes. Findings may guide AI for large-scale monitoring. www.ioa.org.uk/catalogue/pa...

Gravity waves ripple through the atmosphere, driving air turbulence, shifting jet streams, and shaping weather at the edge of space. This summer, Matthew Baughen and Clara Crommen joined us to identify these waves using satellite data: a step toward understanding their impact on our changing planet.

With climate change, low-energy strategies like moisture buffering in porous building materials are vital for controlling indoor conditions. This summer, we funded Seren Jones to help Dr Valeria Cascione explore how these materials create healthier, more comfortable spaces while reducing energy use.

Climate change is reshaping UK reservoirs: rising Mn & algae levels, drought, & thermal stratification harm water quality. Seasonal drying/rewetting cycles worsen sediment release. This summer, we funded Fathima Begum to use new tools to measure these effects. Understanding key to water security.

Pleased to hear that Dan Maskell, Pete Walker, and colleagues from University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, have received the Thomas Howard Medal 2024 from @ice-engineers.bsky.social for their work on the resilience of vernacular masonry walls subject to flooding. www.sciencedirect.com/org/science/...

🌌 Exploring the Edge of Space! Dr Neil Hindley’s SURGE project at the University of Bath investigates upper atmospheric waves, unlocking new understanding of their role in shaping Earth’s weather. Learn more: www.bath.ac.uk/case-studies... #ClimateAdaptation #AtmosphericScience

Great work by Dr Andy Barnes showing that machine learning-equipped camera systems can be an effective and low-cost flood defence tool. www.bath.ac.uk/announcement...

We held a recent panel Q+A session about journal peer reviews and explored the key topics: ✅ How many reviews to take on ✅ What makes a thorough review ✅ What editors want ✅ Tips for early-career researchers Big thanks to our experts, Stephen Emmitt, Susan Bernal, Cath Borwick and David Stacey.
