Fully Funded PhD in AI-Based Regional Models and Hydroclimate Change at University College London University College London in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in the School of Earth & Environment on Greenland ice-sheet stability, climate science, data analysis, data science, mathematical modelling, and palaeoclimate evidence . The project asks whether Greenland may reach a tipping point and how ice-age evidence can improve predictions of its future. It uses the coupled climate–ice sheet model FAMOUS-ice to study past, present, and future Greenland stability, including irreversible retreat, uncertainty in sea-...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in the School of Earth & Environment on reducing uncertainty in the effect of shipping on climate change . This project sits at the intersection of climate science, environmental science, Earth science, physics, data science, machine learning, and mathematical modelling . The research focuses on aerosol particles from shipping, their effects on clouds, and how these processes influence Earth’s energy balance and climate uncertainty. The student will use...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in the School of Earth & Environment with Dr Ruza Ivanovic. This project, “Changing climates: Unlocking the past to improve predictions of the future,” sits at the intersection of climate science, data analysis, data science, mathematical modelling, statistics, and Earth science. The research aims to improve estimates of equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) by combining observational records from Earth’s past with advanced uncertainty quantification, m...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in AI / machine learning for climate science , with a focus on mapping how future climate uncertainties and weather/climate impacts may affect Africa . The project sits in the School of Earth & Environment and is part of the UNRISK CDT . It combines climate science , meteorology , data science , data analysis , applied statistics , and mathematical modelling to develop machine-learning approaches that downscale global climate model information to local,...

PhD opportunity at University College London in the Institute for Risk and Disaster Reduction on Compound Wind and Rainfall Extremes over Europe: understanding uncertainties from climate to financial risk . This project sits at the intersection of climate science , statistics , data science , machine learning , mathematical modelling , and applied statistics . It investigates how compound weather extremes such as winter windstorms coinciding with heavy rainfall create financial losses, and how u...
