PhD in Climate Science and Ice-Sheet Modelling: Greenland Tipping Points and Future Sea-Level Rise University of Leeds in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at University College London in the Department of Geography with Prof Chris Brierley, focused on climate science , machine learning , data science , mathematical modelling , and Earth science . This project asks whether AI-based regional downscaling models can capture hydroclimate changes in the geologic past. You will work with paleoclimate proxy records, uncertainty quantification, climate-model evaluation, and high-resolution simulations from PMIP and NCAR, including experimen...

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 Exeter in Mathematics and Statistics , focused on tracking uncertainties from future storms to hazards and decisions . This project sits within the UNRISK CDT and investigates how uncertainty in climate-model projections of extratropical cyclones translates into uncertainty in the wind and precipitation hazards that matter for society. The research combines climate science , meteorology , applied statistics , data science , mathematical modelling , uncertaint...

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...

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,...
