Arctic Risks

Ben Lishman was appointed UCL RDR Research Fellow in Arctic Risks in 2012. We signed a collaboration agreement with the NTNU, Norway, to support an UCL RDR Impact PhD Studentship and another with Total (France) for an Impact Studentship to work on arctic navigation. In April 2013 we hosted an international cross-disciplinary UCL RDR Arctic Risk Forum, addressing Arctic engineering risks and their implications, engaging with academics, engineers and professionals from the City. In May 2013 we hosted an International Rubble Ice Workshop for SAMCoT.

Current research students working on the NTNU and Total funded projects are Sally Scourfield and Mark Shortt.
