College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences, University of Exeter, UK
We are inviting applications for a PhD studentship looking at interactions between
Arctic aerosols,
clouds and sea ice:
Project: “Investigation into the importance of aerosols from blowing snow for accurate predictions of Arctic climate change”
This PhD studentship involve close collaboration with the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and the UK Met Office.
The studentship is inter-disciplinary in nature. It would suit a numerate scientist passionate to understand the physical climate system using numerical modelling and observations. The project involves working with climate models, therefore, experience
in programming is preferred but not essential. Backgrounds such as physics/mathematics/environmental science/computer science would all be acceptable.
Main supervisor: Dr Daniel Partridge (University of Exeter)
Co-supervisor: Dr Alistair Sellar (UK Met Office)
Co-supervisor: Prof Jim Haywood (University of Exeter)
Co-supervisors: Dr Markus Frey & Dr Xin Yang (British Antarctic Survey)
Application deadline: midnight on 7 January 2019.
