Description

Imperial College London's Department of Aeronautics offers a PhD studentship focused on the interactions between turbulence and water droplets in clouds, which is vital for improving numerical weather prediction models. The project will involve high-fidelity simulations of cloud turbulence with large water droplets, analyzing their two-way interaction and developing new parameterization strategies. The successful candidate will be part of a NERC-funded project, contributing to advancements in atmospheric science. Candidates with a first-class degree in Aeronautics, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or related fields are encouraged to apply. The studentship offers full tuition coverage and an annual stipend of £21,237. Applications are due by January 23, 2025.
