The University of Edinburgh is offering a PhD opportunity supervised by Professor Lindsay Beevers and Encarni Medina Lopez on future hydrological extremes in a changing climate . The project will quantify how floods and droughts may change under future climate change using the Reference Observatory of Basins for International hydrological climate change detection (ROBIN), a global network of near-natural catchments, together with global multi-model climate projections such as ISIMIP. It will inv...
