Canolfan Hyfforddiant Doethurol Biowyddorau dŵr croyw a chynaliadwyedd
Archwiliwch y prosiectau ymchwil dynamig wedi’u cyd-ddylunio sy'n cael eu gyrru gan ymchwilwyr PhD FRESH.
Ers mis Hydref 2018 mae Canolfan Hyfforddiant Doethurol NERC mewn Biowyddorau Dŵr Croyw a Chynaliadwyedd (CDT FRESH) wedi darparu amgylchedd ymchwil a hyfforddiant doethurol o'r radd flaenaf, gan harneisio arbenigedd gan brifysgolion GW4 yn ogystal â'r Ganolfan Ecoleg a Hydroleg ac Arolwg Daearegol Prydain. Mae'r CDT FRESH yn adeiladu ar etifeddiaeth GW4 mewn hyfforddiant doethurol rhagorol trwy gydweithio â rhanddeiliaid i roi'r gallu damcaniaethol a chymhwysol i fyfyrwyr fynd i'r afael â chymhlethdod heriau dŵr croyw a datblygu a chymhwyso gwyddoniaeth arloesol ar draws disgyblaethau.

Gall cyanobacteria yn ein dŵr yfed gynhyrchu cyfansoddion “blas ac arogl” sydd, er nad ydynt yn beryglus, yn annymunol. Nod gwaith ym mhrifysgolion Caerdydd a Chaerfaddon yw deall yn well, a rhagweld yn y pen draw, y blodau cyanobacteria sy'n cynhyrchu'r cyfansoddion hyn
