<div>Do you have a passion for tropical clouds, convection and climate change? Do you want to work in an open, collaborative and international environment to resolve long-standing questions of fundamental climate science? Then we have an exciting PhD position
for you at Wageningen University & Research in The Netherlands!<br>
<br>
The tropical oceans are blanketed by shallow convective clouds, which organise into striking patterns that cool the planet. How sensitive this cooling is to changes in climate is a central uncertainty in projections of future climate itself. In this project,
you will contribute to solving this challenge <span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">by studying observations, large-eddy simulations and global models of unprecedented resolution, to develop</span> new theory for how shallow clouds
organise. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are looking for an enthusiastic, ambitious candidate with a strong background in atmospheric science, physics, mathematics, engineering or a related field, who loves to work on challenging, theoretical problems, with numerical simulations and with large
data sets. You will work in an open-science oriented, international community with strong ties to projects across The Netherlands and Europe.</div>
