MPhil (Research) Environmental Sciences

Course Overview This course explores the dynamic interplay between life and Earth's changing environments, focusing on critical thresholds and feedback loops within the planet's systems. Students will investigate two primary research themes to understand how the atmosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere interact to shape our world. Key Program Highlights Examine critical environmental thresholds that impact life in terrestrial and aquatic systems Investigate the complex feedback between the atmosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere Model the spatial and temporal evolution of Earth's surface under changing climate conditions Analyze processes that sustain life within the context of global landscape change Gain a holistic understanding of how dynamic environments influence fundamental planetary interactions
