Impacts”, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 956396 and
headed by Uppsala University. You will be part of a leading cohort of
early-career researchers across 9 universities and research centres in Europe, studying
different aspects of climate extremes: from atmospheric dynamics to public health
and agricultural impacts. Through this network you will have access to a rich
programme of training activities and research exchanges. Your work will focus
on mapping key physical processes and large-scale oceanic and atmospheric
configurations modulating the skill and statistics of heatwave forecasts in
present and future climates. This analysis will be complemented by the use of
indicators issued from dynamical systems theory, which will provide a
theoretical picture of the mean predictability characteristics of the
atmosphere. You will also have the opportunity to engage in teaching and supervising
duties. As part of the project, you will be required to complete international
secondments and attend international meetings, subject to health and travel
