Quantifying methane emissions from wastewater treatment

This project aims to quantify methane emissions from wastewater treatment plants. The expected outcomes are improved understanding of methane emissions from within the plant, their spatial and temporal variability, and how they contribute to the total emissions. This may reduce emissions of methane.  

Improving cropping decisions with AI-enhanced weather forecasts

This project will investigate the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve weather forecasts and discover how AI forecasts can advance farming decisions by coupling with crop models and smart farming tools. This is an exciting opportunity to develop or integrate novel AI-enhanced weather forecasts into real world modelling applications, for example in the sugarcane industry. With research being undertaken alongside real farm advisors, your research can help industry to optimise resource use and enhance overall farm productivity while minimising environmental impact.
