[Fully funded studentship covering fees, a maintenance stipend of £21,805 p.a. for 2026/27, and a research training and support grant (RTSG). A limited number of studentships are available for international applicants with the home/international fee difference waived; relocation, visa, and health surcharge costs are not covered.] PhD Studentship: Arctic Wintertime Storms in a Changing Climate at the University of East Anglia is a research opportunity focused on polar mesoscale cyclones and polar...

PhD opportunity at the University of Exeter in quantifying the likelihood of persistent extreme weather events in a changing climate . This project sits in Mathematics and Statistics and is focused on applied statistics , climate science , data analysis , data science , machine learning , mathematical modelling , and meteorology . The research aims to estimate the probability of persistent extremes such as heatwaves, cold snaps, and prolonged rainy or stormy seasons, especially under climate cha...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in spatio-temporal statistical modelling for extreme rainfall events , climate prediction, and rare-event analysis. This project develops advanced generalised linear/additive mixed models with covariate-dependent, dynamically estimated thresholds to improve prediction of when and where extreme rainfall will occur. The research sits within the UNRISK CDT and connects with work relevant to climate resilience , meteorology , data science , and high-perform...

The University of Reading is seeking a postdoctoral research scientist to work in its Department of Meteorology on the AUSPICE project. The research focuses on diagnosing predictable atmospheric circulation signals in climate models and observations, assessing their implications for climate predictions and projections, and developing corrections for model errors. The post-holder will develop a robust statistical framework and use causal networks to investigate relationships within the climate sy...

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...
