The 51cg has been included among the top 40 UK universities listed in this year's Guardian University Guide, rising five places on last year's position.

The 51cg is hosting a major international conference on seismic imaging that will open in Aviemore this weekend.

Scientists from the 51cg are due to sail to the North Atlantic to test a pioneering piece of research equipment that will help improve our understanding of how deep ocean ecosystems function and respond to a major oil spill.

Dr Brice Rea is part of a team, led by the University of Durham, which have just received £600k+ funding from NERC for a four year project on “Greenland in a warmer climate:  What controls the advance & retreat of the NE Greenland Ice Stream”. The NE Greenland Ice Stream...
