Stockholm University’s Department of Meteorology (MISU) is advertising a PhD student position in Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography with a focus on mixed-phase cloud processes . The project studies how cloud composition, cloud-scale dynamics, turbulence, and atmospheric waves influence whether clouds cool or warm the Earth. The successful candidate will analyze more than 800 hours of aircraft-based wind and cloud particle measurements collected during field campaigns in the US, Europe, the Ca...

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...

Wageningen University & Research is advertising a PhD position in 3D radiation in clouds and wildfire plumes using GPUs and machine learning . The project is part of ORCRIST (Optimized Ray-tracing for Cloud-Radiation Interaction Simulations in 3D using GPUs and Machine Learning), funded by the NWO Open Technology Programme . The research focuses on atmospheric radiation, cloud physics, wildfire plumes, and high-performance computing. You will help develop the first Monte Carlo ray tracer for the...

University of Southampton is advertising a PhD project in planetary climate physics focused on a major open question in giant-planet atmospheres: how giant storms form and how heat is redistributed across fast-rotating planets . The project will use the OASIS computational model to run advanced three-dimensional climate simulations of Jupiter and Jupiter-like planets. Research topics include atmospheric physics , cloud physics , turbulence , atmospheric circulation , and the development of large...
