[Funded through the CENTA3 DLA and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC); funding covers an annual stipend, tuition fees at home-fee level, and a Research Training Support Grant.] This PhD studentship investigates how rising atmospheric CO2 may alter forest emissions of volatile organic compounds and, in turn, the ability of those emissions to form secondary organic aerosol. The project is framed around a key climate question: whether a mature forest that emits different mixtures of pl...

This 36-month PhD project at the University of St Andrews investigates how atmospheric circulation responds to global warming and how those responses affect regional climate and weather extremes. The research will use a hierarchy of numerical climate simulations to study circulation across multiple scales, from global jet streams to regional thunderstorm systems. By analyzing multi-member ensembles and prescribed sea-surface-temperature experiments, the project will distinguish rapid adjustments...

About this position

The University of Oxford’s Department of Physics, Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics (AOPP), is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to work on aerosols, clouds and their interactions, with a focus on kilometre-scale modelling.

The role is aligned with the EU Horizon Europe RealESM project, Next-Generation Earth System Modelling for Realistic Projections of Rapid Climate Evolution in the Coming Decades. The research will advance the representation of aerosol-cloud interactions in next-generation global kilometre-scale Earth System Models and use these models to investigate aerosol effects on effective radiative forcing, precipitation and extreme events, particularly in convective systems.

The postdoctoral researcher will develop innovative research approaches and collaborate closely with national and international partners across Europe. The position offers opportunities to present results at national and international meetings, publish in leading and high-impact journals, co-advise doctoral students and contribute to teaching.

This is a research opportunity at the intersection of atmospheric physics, Earth system modelling, climate science, computational modelling and aerosol-cloud processes within an internationally connected research environment.

Funding details

Full-time, fixed-term postdoctoral research position for 30 months. Salary is Research Grade 7RS, £40,178–£48,700 per annum.

What's required

Applicants should hold a PhD/DPhil, or be close to completion, in atmospheric physics or a related field. A strong background and track record in atmospheric physics are essential, together with strong computing skills, including knowledge of UNIX/Linux, Fortran, Python or other high-level programming languages. Applicants must upload a CV, supporting statement including a cover letter addressing each selection criterion, and details of two referees. Referees must submit references by the closing date.
