PhD in Climate and Atmospheric Science

University of Leeds

We are making fundamental advances in our understanding of climate change, weather, atmospheric composition, palaeo-climates, and impacts on our planet and society. We develop advanced computer models, lead major field campaigns, analyse satellite data, and perform innovative laboratory experiments. On behalf of the school, ICAS hosts the Centre for Environmental Modelling and Computation, which aims to be a leading UK centre for modelling, computation and environmental data processing. Its vision is to significantly enhance and accelerate our high impact research in weather, climate and atmospheric composition, and to train and educate a new generation of students and scientists in the latest techniques in scientific computing and data processing visualisation.
