Phd Student - Barcelona, España - Barcelona Supercomputing Center – Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC)

Descripción

BSC-ES is looking for a PhD student to explore new methodologies to attribute extreme climate events to global warming and other climate drivers.

The incumbent is expected to use a wide range of climate observations and simulations to make attribution statements for the Euro-Mediterranean region.

She/he will also use the EC-Earth climate model to assess the relative merits of approaches inspired in simplified data assimilation in climate attribution.

Both climate-change attribution and attribution of extreme events will be studied considering factual and counter-factual worlds in the coupled climate model where the observed atmospheric circulation is prescribed.
