Are you interested in climate? Do you have a background in maths, physics, climate science, or a related field?
Would you like an office half a mile from the beach?
If the answer to most of those is yes, you might be interested in this PhD project at St Andrews.

📢Submit to our EGU session!📢
We are organizing a session at EGU 2026 in Vienna, with a focus on climate sensitivity, radiative feedbacks and the pattern effect!
If you work on anything related to climate sensitivity, we'd love to have you! 🥳🥳🥳 Submit soon! :)
📣 We seek to appoint a Chair (with rank of professor) within the School of Earth & Environmental Sciences. The successful candidate will be an outstanding scholar of international standing in the field.
🗓 Closing Date: 23 March 2026

Really enjoyed this, was great to have so many people attend, present and discuss some of the exciting climate science happening in Scotland. Looking forward to the next one!
🚨 New paper alert! ☁️
We define a diagnostic of convective entrainment in GCMs and investigate how this diagnosed value is connected to CAPE extremes and moist heatwaves in the tropics.
You can find our paper in WCD, co-written with Marty Singh.

🚨New paper on heatwaves in a net zero world 🚨
In our study, led by @sarahinscience.bsky.social, we find that the intensity, length and frequency of heatwaves do not return to pre-industrial levels under net zero - and in many regions barely improve at all.

🚨New paper on Southern Ocean CO2🚨
Using a suite of Earth system models, Maddie Shankle et al show that better ventilation of intermediate waters in the North Pacific ends up reducing outgassing of CO2 in the Southern Ocean 🌊🧪⚒️🧵 @earthscista.bsky.social

Members of SEES on the front steps of Bute, dazzled by the bright Scottish sun. Unless you were smart enough to wear sunglasses like Paul and Bob.
Meet the motley crew of the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences – ready to kick off the new academic year! 🌍👋
Special mention to our Head of School, Prof. Rob Wilson, who is cleverly disguised a a responsible adult (the T-shirt says it all) 😅🤦♂
