PhD Opportunity – UNSW Climate Change Research Centre
2 weeks ago
UNSW Climate Change Research Centre, Sydney Australia
Salary: $23,860 (plus $5,000 top-up) AUD per year, tax-free.
Applications are invited for a high-level PhD scholarship to investigate the physics of the Southern Ocean circulation and its role in the climate system, focusing on the magnitude, distribution, and mechanisms of mixing by horizontal eddy motions at scales less than 100 kilometres. The project aims to develop a process-based understanding of eddy mixing, especially related to jet-topography interactions, through theoretical and observational approaches. It also involves implementing this understanding in climate models to improve their accuracy.
The project includes designing experiments with numerical models of Southern Ocean circulation and analyzing observational data to test and refine the understanding. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to apply this knowledge to climate model evaluation and improvement.
The scholarship is tenable for 3 years, with a possible 6-month extension. Candidates should have a strong academic record, including Honours Class I or equivalent, especially in physics and/or mathematics. International students are encouraged to apply, with additional application for a UNSW International Research Scholarship due by 31 August 2012. Successful applicants may also receive a top-up award if they obtain an APA scholarship.
Applicants should send a full academic transcript, a short CV, and an expression of interest to Bronwen Smith at
