Ph.D. Researcher position, Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU).

The Faculty of Science and Technology at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) has a vacant PhD position related to precipitation
measurements within the field of experimental meteorology. The Ph.D. position is for a period of 3 years, or up to 4 years if teaching and other work duties are agreed upon.

This Ph.D. research project aims the development of a more accurate precipitation measurement product in challenging weather situations.

The successful candidate will analyze existing measurements, performing own observations, and work on combining products from the different sensors, utilizing the strengths and different information contents of those sensors, thus compensating for the weaknesses of the individual measurement
methods depending on the weather situation.

Further, dedicated field campaigns are planned, which will use the
facilities of NMBU and the Norwegian Meteorological Institute.

The university fully funds the Ph.D. scholarship.
