Internship Climate Risk

4 weken geleden


Amersfoort, Nederland Royal HaskoningDHV Zwolle Voltijd

Are you passionate about climate science and data-driven solutions? Do you want to contribute to global efforts in understanding climate risks and building resilient communities? Look no further We’re offering an exciting internship position where you’ll play a crucial role in shaping the future of climate risk assessment. Our team of experts collaborates on cutting-edge projects that impact communities worldwide. We believe that reliable climate data is the foundation for informed decision-making, and we’re on a mission to create a comprehensive weather dataset with global coverage.

Climate risk and vulnerability assessments play a crucial role in identifying climate hotspots and prioritizing investments where they are most needed. These assessments rely on robust information about historical and future climate conditions. However, local-scale data is not always readily available, leading us to heavily depend on satellite-based historical observations and regional climate models. As global datasets continue to expand and evolve, we are creating a comprehensive historic and future weather dataset with global coverage. This dataset directly informs our climate risk assessment initiatives and is being developed alongside ongoing projects.

As an intern, you’ll work closely with our climate risk assessment team. Here’s what you’ll be doing:

Method Comparison: Dive into the complex world of historical and future climate data. You’ll explore different methods and (global) data sources, including CHIRPS, ERA5, GLDAS, NASA, and CORDEX. You will be evaluating their suitability for our purpose and identify the most effective approach. Develop a Data Platform: Ultimately the goal is to build a platform or several workflows that allows easy access to the preferred datasets that allows inclusion of the data in our climate hazard and risk modelling workflows.

What you do as a graduate intern

The graduate intern will collaborate closely with the project leader to develop hazard models and maps. This initiative stems from an ongoing climate risk assessment focused on the African continent, providing a tangible use case that directly involves you in the team working on this assessment. Our overarching objective is to create a platform or methodology that can be universally applied, requiring scripting and automating of processes.

Where you will work

Royal HaskoningDHV is a worldwide independent engineering, project management and consultancy firm which integrates 140 years of engineering expertise with digital technologies and software solutions. Our 6,000 colleagues are working from offices in more than 25 countries across the world.
