PhD position on Complex system modelling of systemic climate impacts
Climate science allows us to quantify the role of climate change in concrete events of extreme weather: this is called extreme event attribution. In this project, we aim to develop an expanded and integrated science of event attribution, forecast and impact, to enable effective policymaking towards preventing imminent harm and reducing risk in the next decades. The new research paradigm aims to capture not only clima...

Role overview
In this project, we aim to develop an expanded and integrated science of event attribution, forecast and impact, to enable effective policymaking towards preventing imminent harm and reducing risk in the next decades. The new research paradigm aims to capture not only climatic factors, but also drivers such as land-use change, groundwater depletion, changes in exposure and social vulnerability
As a PhD candidate, your goal is to develop new modelling tools for assessing the systemic impacts emerging from the dynamics between hazards, socio-economic sectors, vulnerability and adaptation. You will also combine models with counterfactuals and scenarios of climate and of non-climate drivers, developed in stakeholder consultation. This will enhance our understanding of the link between climate, extreme weather and human actions and decisions.
The work will be carried out in strong interaction with international project partners
