Nonlinear systems of PDE and vectorial Calculus of Variations in L∞ (L-infinity)

The calculus of variations is, roughly speaking, the mathematical theory of how to minimise or maximise magnitudes. Variational problems from science typically require minimisation of an average magnitude over a space-time region depending on unknown quantities. Read more

SCENARIO: European weather and climate extremes in a net-zero world

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
Co-supervisor. Erich Fischer, ETH Zurich, Institute for Atmospheric and Climate Science. The Paris Agreement, adopted by 196 parties at COP21 in 2015, sets out the goal to limit global warming to no more than 2°C, and pursue efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. Read more

SCENARIO: Multi-Scale Parameterization for the Convection Grey Zone

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
Co-supervisor. Professor Ian Boutle, Met Office. The numerical models used for weather forecasting and climate projection perform their calculations on a grid and simulate the flow on spatial scales larger than the grid. Read more

SCENARIO: Windstorms in a changing climate

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
Co-supervisor. Richard Dixon, Inigo Insurance / Visiting Research Fellow, University of Reading . Windstorms, a particularly hazardous form of the low-pressure systems that typically occur in the mid-latitudes in the autumn and winter, are one of the most important natural hazards impacting the UK. Read more

SCENARIO: Correcting for errors in location of features in numerical weather forecasts using ‘field warping’

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
Are you a physicist, mathematician, engineer, meteorologist, computer scientist or other quantitative scientist who likes the idea of earning a PhD working with some of the most fascinating and complex physical models, like those that forecast the weather?. Read more

SCENARIO: Aviation turbulence in a warmer world

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
Co-supervisors. Veronique Blanc, Airbus; Sylvie Marquier; Airbus. Clear-air turbulence is a major meteorological hazard to the aviation sector. Read more

SCENARIO: Generating and evaluating the next generation of ensemble atmospheric dispersion forecasts

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
This PhD project will explore the science of predicting environmental hazards, including volcanic ash, chemicals, and radiation. These hazardous substances pose significant risks to human health, wildlife, and infrastructure. Read more

SCENARIO: What is causing Southern Ocean sea ice loss?

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
The Southern Ocean, surrounding Antarctica in a wide swath around the globe, comprises some 30% of the global ocean surface area and accounts for uptake of around 40% of anthropogenic CO2 and 75% of global heat increases in recent decades. Read more

SCENARIO: Treatment of model bias in Marine Ecology forecasting

  Research Group: SCENARIO NERC DTP
Co-supervisor. David Ford, Met Office. The monitoring and forecasting of marine ecology are essential to understanding the current and future health of our coastal oceans. Read more
