PhD in Earth Systems

PhD candidate: ML-based prediction of flood types based on atmospheric and catchment attributes/nWe are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate to join our team (18 months with the intention for extension to up to four years, full time, fully funded) at the Hydrology and Environmental Hydraulics Group at Wageningen University. The position is based within the NWO-funded VIDI project “FutureFlood - Future-proof flood prediction” to develop novel classification methods for understanding the generating processes of flood events in both the atmosphere and catchment and to be able to predict the upcoming flood type, e.g. heavy-rainfall flood or rain-on-snow flood.
