PhD Student Position in Urban Climate
Position Overview:
Our interdisciplinary team is dedicated to understand and address the complex interactions between urban environments and climate change through advanced computational, measurement and analytical methods, and thus we have our own large datasets for urban climate. We are now seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research team, to integrate urban climate physical modeling with machine learning algorithms to predict and mitigate the impacts of climate change on urban areas. The suitable candidate is expected to conduct the research focusing on developing and implementing Physics-Informed machine learning models.
The qualified candidate is expected to have (1) a Master's degree in a related field (e.g., Environmental Science, Computer Science, Data Science, and/or a related discipline), (2) background and knowledge in machine learning, (3) proficiency in programming languages such as Python, R, or MATLAB and (4) experience with / interest in climate modeling and urban climate data.
About Us:
The Urban Climate Design Laboratory at the Department of Architecture, National University of Singapore consists a group of vibrant researchers who are at the forefront of research in urban climate sustainability and resilience.
Under the influence of climate change and urbanisation, improving sustainability and resilience of cities is an urgent priority. High-density urban living is an inevitable trend in adapting to rapid urbanisation and climate change. Yet, such high-density nature could pose negative impacts on urban living, such as poor air quality and thermal comfort. Long-term negative impacts increase both intensity and frequency of short-term disruptions. In view of the complex relationship and interactions between urban environments, multi-scale-physics urban climate understandings, modelling methods and design solutions are emphasized, to prepare high density cities to the future climate challenges.
We offer a dynamic and supportive research environment, access to world-class state-of-the-art computational resources and potential for collaboration with leading experts and institutions. Supervisor: Chao Yuan (https://lnkd.in/gyUvc2AN)

I am looking for a Ph.D. student to join my Water Quality Management (WaQuM) lab in the Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering (https://abe.psu.edu/) at Penn State. The student will work on stream water quality and the use of conservation practices for tackling nutrient pollution issues. This is a full-funded position, expected to start in Spring 2025, and will include stipend, tuition, and health insurance support. Required qualifications are described below, but most importantly, we are looking for critical thinkers with strong passion for research.
The project will involve field-scale water quality monitoring and analysis, and hence we are looking for candidates with background in experimental/field work, laboratory-based water quality assessment, and data analysis and interpretation. Additionally, applicants should have: - An M.S. in Agricultural and Biological Engineering, Civil Engineering, or related fields in natural resources engineering. - Strong knowledge of one or more of the following: Ecohydrology, water quality, pollutant transport, agricultural/urban best management practices (BMPs), watershed management .

Four PhD positions (two international and two domestic) are available in the NFM rivers research group, working with industry and NSW Government partners.
The 2021-2022 floods across eastern Australia highlighted the vulnerability of rivers to changing climate extremes. We must urgently re-examine how to live with rivers and build nature-based flood mitigation capacity and resilience into them, to prepare for an inevitable future where floods are forecast to be more intense and extreme. This Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage project aims to address the potential for, and implementation of, Natural Flood Management (NFM) as a next-generation nature-based flood mitigation tool for the 21st Century for river systems in eastern New South Wales (NSW), Australia. NFM uses natural processes to slow floods down, reduce their erosive and destructive power, and reduce flood risk. In collaboration with NSW Government partners, the project will undertake foundation research on the geomorphology, vegetative, hydrological and social aspects of NFM using field-based, lab-based and modelling techniques, and social science. The project expects to deliver the scientific evidence-based for NFM and solutions for implementation in on-ground river rehabilitation prioritisation, planning and community capacity building.

I am excited to share that I will join the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at The University of Texas at Arlington as an assistant professor in this October! My future research group will focus on the development of advanced semiconductor materials and microelectronic devices for energy-efficient memory and computing applications. My group's research will expand from functional thin film growth to nanodevice fabrication, as well as utilizing advanced characterization methods such as (in-situ) electron microscopy and X-ray techniques to explore the structure-property relationship and understand the devices working mechanisms and so on. We are looking for highly motivated students to join our group as PhD or master students, or short-term interns as well. If you are interested please reach to me via email at di.zhang@uta.edu. Spring 2025 admission is preferred, but other time enrollment can be flexible based on personal discussions. Thank you!

The Institute for Earth Observation of Eurac Research is looking for a Researcher (m/f) in the field of earth observation and land surface modelling for water resources and vegetation monitoring over the Alps
Main topic: Evapotranspiration modelling over the Alps
The position is primarily intended for postdocs with a background in Environmental Engineering, Physics, Hydrology, Meteorology, or related disciplines. However, we will also consider applications from highly motivated and talented postgraduates.
The position is fully funded by the Interreg Alpine Space project A-DROP. A-DROP (Alpine DROught Prediction) is a 3-year project funded by the Interreg programme on Priority 1: Climate resilient and green Alpine region. The project’s overall objective is to equip water managers at policy and operational levels with drought risk management tools and data to address increasing water scarcity due to climate change. By leveraging advanced digital technologies in Earth Observation, climate, and hydrology, A-DROP enables users in agriculture, hydropower plant management, tourism, and drinking water supply, along with policymakers, to adopt evidence-based water management policies.
The selected candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate with an internationally recognized and highly competent partnership.
