PhD Studentship in Computational approaches to Uncertainty in Scenario-based models of Climate Change Impacts at Heriot-Watt University

Overview
Heriot-Watt University - Computer Sciences Department Applicants are invited for a fully funded PhD studentship on "Computational approaches to Uncertainty in Scenario-based models of Climate Change Impacts" at the Computer Sciences Department at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh (joint supervision with Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability at Edinburgh University). For further information please contact Oliver Lemon (o.lemon@hw.ac.uk ).

Closing date for applicants: 15 August 2010
Starting: October 2011 (negotiable)
Length: 4 years

The aim of this studentship is to develop new computational models to assess uncertainties in the prediction of climate change impacts and explore alternative policy response strategies to better mitigate climate vulnerability. It will formally identify and quantify sources of uncertainty and explore probabilistic methods (e.g. Probabilistic Graphical Models) which capture distributions over possible futures and allow efficient inference over hidden (unobservable) variables.
