Responsibilities and qualifications  
This PhD project will focus on reducing uncertainties in Arctic sea-ice predictions. There will be three subprojects: 1) develop a climate data retrieval system in close collaboration with researchers at DMI and RMI. The pipeline is based on CMIP6, CMIP7, and C3S data. 2) develop generative AI models that can create high-resolution climate data based on low-resolution input, 3) develop probabilistic AI models to generate ensembles of Arctic winter initial states, which will be used as input to physical climate simulations to explore predictive relationships across warming scenarios. 

You should have the following required skills: 

• Demonstrated experience in deep learning, including some exposure to graph neural networks or diffusion models. 
• Proven experience with implementing machine learning methods in Python and Pytorch or Flax.
• Familiarity with managing a larger code base and training models on HPC systems. 
• Familiarity with climate modelling is a plus.
