Dear all,

The newly established Environmetrics research group at the TU Dortmund 
(Germany) offers a PhD position (3 years, TV-L E13 75%, upgrade to 100% 
possible subject to availability of funds) within the Research Center 
Trustworthy Data Science and Security and the Department of Statistics. 
The position is to be filled as early as possible. The candidate will 
develop new statistical methods to infer spatio-temporal climate 
variability patterns from sparse observations, and integrate 
observational constraints on climate variability into future Earth 
system projections using statistical postprocessing methods.

If you have a strong background in probability theory or statistics, are 
highly motivated to apply these skills to open questions in climate 
sciences, and strive to work on societally important questions about 
future environmental change, I'm looking forward to your application. 
Applications documents (motivation letter, CV, copies of your 
certificates, a short summary of your Master thesis, and contact details 
of two referees) can be send as one pdf file to 
environmetrics at rc-trust.ai. The application deadline is March 12, 2026.

You can find more details in the attached job advertisement or here 
<https://service.tu-dortmund.de/documents/18/2120797/w05-26_PhD_Stelle_RAR_englisch_SJA_NEU.pdf>. 
Feel free to forward to interested candidates. For further questions, 
please contact me under environmetrics at rc-trust.ai.

Best wishes,
Nils
