Job title PhD Position in Ocean Dynamics and Climate Impacts from High-Resolution Models and Observations. Company Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) – Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, Department of Geoscience and Remote Sensing, in collaboration with Alfred Wegener Institute (Germany). Description of the job A fully funded 4-year PhD position is now open at TU Delft in collaboration with the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI, Germany). The successful candidate will use cutting-edge high-resolution climate models and observations to uncover how Arctic Ocean circulation will evolve in the coming decades, and what this means for climate at lower latitudes. Over the past decades, the Arctic Ocean circulation has changed significantly, in part due to a large reduction in sea ice extent in the Northern hemisphere. The resulting ocean currents risk delivering a greater amount of fresh waters to the sub-Arctic regions, with potential impact on the...
