Research Fellow in Convection over the Maritime Continent

2 months ago


Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom University of Leeds Full time

Are you an ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you have strong data analysis skills and a background in convection, tropical meteorology, dynamical meteorology, or a related field? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK's leading research intensive Universities?

The University of Leeds is one of the top 80 universities in the world. We have a truly global community, with more than 39,000 students from 170 different countries and over 9,000 staff of 100 different nationalities. Established in 1904, we have a strong tradition of academic excellence, reflected in first-class student education, along with world-leading research that has a real impact around the globe.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to model the atmospheric drivers of convective storms over the Maritime Continent.

Supervised by Prof Cathryn Birch and Prof John Marsham, you will analyse sub-km convection-permitting model simulations of severe convective storms over the Western Maritime Continent. You will quantify the relative importance of key processes causing the triggering, propagation and organisation of convection, such as the orography, land-sea breeze, cold pool outflows, gravity waves and the dependence on the synoptic-scale situation. The model simulations have been run by computing experts at our Centre for Environmental Modelling And Computation (CEMAC) and you will analyse them on national supercomputing facilities. The simulations are for a number of case studies and have been simulated at a range of horizontal resolutions to allow an assessment of the benefits of sub-km resolution.

For research and academic posts, we will consider eligibility under the Global Talent visa. For more information please visit:

What we offer in return

  • 26 days holiday plus approx.16 Bank Holidays/days that the University is closed by custom (including Christmas) – That's 42 days a year
  • Generous pension scheme plus life assurance– the University contributes 14.5% of salary
  • Health and Wellbeing: Discounted staff membership options at The Edge, our state-of-the-art Campus gym, with a pool, sauna, climbing wall, cycle circuit, and sports halls.
  • Personal Development: Access to courses run by our Organisational Development & Professional Learning team.
  • Access to on-site childcare, shopping discounts and travel schemes are also available.

And much more
