PhD in Wildfire Hazard Uncertainty, Urban Response, Adaptation and Insurability University College London in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Exeter in Mathematics and Statistics on designing ensembles for efficient climate model emulation and uncertainty quantification . This project sits within the UNRISK CDT and focuses on climate science, applied statistics, data science, machine learning, mathematical modelling, and uncertainty quantification. The research aims to build statistical emulators for climate models, using methods such as Gaussian processes and sequential experimental design to redu...

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 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 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,...
