PhD, Master’s & Postdoc Opportunities in Atmospheric Science in Belgium

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...

The Yorkshire Environmental Sciences Doctoral Training Network (YES-DTN) is recruiting more than 26 fully funded PhD scholars for environmental science research projects in the United Kingdom. Projects are hosted by the University of Leeds and the University of York , bringing together research schools and departments across environmental and natural sciences. The network’s research spans Dynamic Earth and Natural Hazards , Atmosphere and Climate , and Ecology, Evolution and Biodiversity . Parti...

This two-year postdoctoral fellowship at Lund University sits at the intersection of climate modelling, palaeoclimate reconstruction, and epidemic research. The project asks how abrupt climate cooling caused by major volcanic eruptions may have influenced historical epidemics, with special attention to the Plague of Justinian after the eruptions of AD 536 and 540. The successful candidate will join the atmospheric and climate modelling team in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences a...

The Department of Earth System Science at the University of California, Irvine is anticipating openings for postdoctoral scholars in an interdisciplinary earth and climate research environment. The pool is centered on departmental research strengths in biogeochemistry , atmospheric chemistry , and physical climate , offering opportunities to contribute to work across the Earth system. This opening is designed for researchers who want to build postdoctoral projects within a department focused on ...

This postdoctoral opening in the Department of Earth System Science at the University of California, Irvine focuses on improving subseasonal-to-seasonal prediction of precipitation for the west to southwest United States. The project examines processes in the atmosphere and ocean-atmosphere interactions that may improve forecasts on 2-8 week and 2-6 month time scales. The scholar will work with Gudrun Magnusdottir and join a highly interdisciplinary research environment in Earth System Science. ...

The Department of Earth System Science at the University of California, Irvine is recruiting a postdoctoral scholar for a project on rapid-response modeling of air quality and the health impacts of energy policy. The role sits within the Climate, Pollution, and Solutions group led by Professor Lyssa Freese and is embedded in a broader interdisciplinary effort with university researchers and environmental organizations. The scholar will develop and apply air pollution and atmospheric chemistry mo...

The Department of Chemistry at the University of California, Irvine is advertising an ongoing recruitment for postdoctoral scholars across the 2026-27 academic year. The opening is intended for recent Ph.D. graduates working in chemistry or closely related areas, with opportunities spanning several major research directions. Research areas explicitly highlighted include inorganic and organometallic chemistry, organic chemistry and chemical biology, physical/atmospheric/analytical chemistry, poly...

The University School for Advanced Studies IUSS Pavia in Italy will soon launch recruitment for a two-year Postdoctoral Researcher position within a Horizon Europe research project. The project focuses on high-resolution Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of urban microclimate using the open-source OpenFOAM tool. Research will investigate the combined effects of wind flow, temperature, and pollutant dispersion in urban environments. Applicants must hold a PhD and have strong CFD expe...

At the Leibniz Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) in Kühlungsborn, Germany, a full-time postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Modelling of Atmospheric Processes. The project, “Drivers of D-region ionosphere variability above the Baltic Sea region” , is part of the collaborative initiative Atmospheric Impact on the R-Mode Positioning System , involving IAP, the University of Greifswald, the DLR Institute for Solar-Terrestrial Physics, the DLR Institute of Communications and ...
