The research group in Leeds is one of the leading groups in the field of Astrophysical and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, with international reputation in dynamo theory, astrophysical magneto-hydrodynamics and convection. The strength of the group is recognised by the award of several prizes and special fellowships. The group also holds one of the largest grants ever awarded to the University of Leeds. The nine permanent members of staff work with eighteen postdocs and postgraduate students.
Kikundi cha utafiti huko Leeds ni mojawapo ya vikundi vinavyoongoza katika nyanja ya Astrofisical na Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, yenye sifa ya kimataifa katika nadharia ya dynamo, astrophysical magneto-hydrodynamics na convection. Nguvu ya kikundi inatambuliwa na tuzo ya tuzo kadhaa na ushirika maalum. Kikundi pia kinashikilia moja ya ruzuku kubwa zaidi kuwahi kutolewa kwa Chuo Kikuu cha Leeds. Wajumbe tisa wa kudumu wa wafanyikazi hufanya kazi na wahitimu kumi na wanane na wanafunzi wa shahada ya kwanza.
