PhD Position Land-Atmosphere Interactions - Experimental Field Work and Data Analysis
Job Summary
Grass-covered land surfaces play a vital role in regulating heat and moisture exchange between the land and atmosphere. This PhD project aims to advance experimental and theoretical approaches to uncover heat and moisture transfer dynamics over grass-like surfaces, improving the physical representation in weather forecasting models for sustainable land and water resources management amid climate change.
Responsibilities
Conduct experimental fieldwork, design new measurement setups using Distributed Temperature Sensing configurations and micro-meteorological instrumentation, perform data analysis, and develop conceptual modeling. Collaborate with supervisors, a technician, and another PhD candidate focusing on numerical modeling and implementation into forecasting models. Work with industry and public partners.
Qualifications and Requirements
Hold an MSc in atmospheric science, applied physics, or a related field with proven experience in experimental fieldwork. Be a team player who enjoys interdisciplinary collaboration and has a good command of written and spoken English.
What the Employer Offers
A 4-year employment period, initially 1.5 years with a progress assessment, followed by 2.5 years if requirements are met. Salary from €3059 to €3881 per month, enrollment in the TU Delft Graduate School with access to research skills development, customizable compensation package, health insurance discounts, and support for relocation including events and a Dual Career Programme.
