Visit the employer pageWe are seeking four talented PhD candidates to join us in the effort to better constrain the probabilities of occurrence of past and future extreme events and to arrive at robust attribution statements that do not understate nor overstate the future risks society will face.
The different positions are centered around different types of climate events (floods over Europe, heatwaves and compound drought-heat events over Europe, and sea ice extent reduction in the Antarctic), each leading to distinct methodological challenges.
The PhD grants are financed through the Action de Recherche Concertée (ARC) called “EXALT - EXtreme weather Attribution at mid- and high-Latitudes using advanced statistical Techniques”, under the supervision of Profs. Francesco Ragone, François Massonnet and Johan Segers from UCLouvain and Anna Kiriliouk from UNamur.
More information about the project and how to apply are available at the EXALT project website.
