The Sustainable Water Future Programme, or Water Future, a global research project of Future Earth, has announced a call for proposals to form working
groups. These groups will help to develop the research programme of Water Future in several key areas. They include water, sanitation and health; freshwater systems and deltas; and sustainability in the Water-Energy-Food Nexus.
Application Deadline: 15 August 2016

The International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) is organizing a one week training school on predictability over the sub-seasonal to decadal timescales in collaboration with the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) and the Agence Nationale de l’Aviation Civile ed de Meteorologie (ANACIM). This
school will include lectures by leading experts from WCRP’s Working Group on Seasonal to Interannual Prediction (WGSIP) on predictability over the sub-seasonal to decadal timescales, with concrete examples from some of the world’s leading operational centers. Lab-based classes will introduce the participants to the new S2S Project
subseasonal and CHFP seasonal forecast databases.
Deadline: 1 October 2016

Senior Research Scientist Positions at the Climate Change Science Institute at Oak Ridge National
Laboratory
Application Deadline: 1 August 2016
The Climate Change Science Institute (CCSI) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is recruiting two senior research scientists. One position is in the Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability (IAV) group and the other is for a data scientist in the Data Integration, Dissemination, and Informatics (DIDI) group. The successful candidate for the IAV position will be a thought leader in
the field of IAV research, and will be expected to grow and lead IAV projects and staff that advance the state-of-the art in the research, modeling, and analysis of climate change impacts. The successful candidate for the DIDI position will help solve the “big data” problem associated with studying the climate system and how natural and human systems influence and are impacted by a changing climate. Use the links below for complete information and application materials.
PhD Studentship in Climate Science for African Scientists at the
University of Sussex
Application Deadline: 10 August 2016
The University of Sussex invites applications for two fully funded PhD scholarships for research into African climate science. The Peter Carpenter African Climate Scholarship is open to citizens of African countries only. The PhD projects will be hosted within the Climate Science and Society Research (CSSR) group in the department of Geography, where there is a vibrant research program into the African climate and related fields. Projects will be aligned and associated with major African climate research projects in which the Sussex team are involved. For further information, email globalstudiespg@sussex.ac.uk.
