The project will focus on the application of extremal dependence analysis and elaboration of the methodology for the utilization of a priori information available in the form of climate change projections. The project will be conducted based on historical data, climate change projections and results of crop simulation models for Kazakhstan where grain producers are especially prone to risk of drought.

Ph.D. Positions at Aalborg University, Denmark

Center for Data-Intensive Systems, Daisy (http://daisy. aau.dk/), has several fully funded Ph.D. positions available.

The positions concern research in data management technologies that aim to allow energy distribution infrastructures to manage higher amounts of renewable energy and to better balance supply and demand.
The production of renewable energy depends on external factors such as wind and sunlight. Hence, available energy from renewable sources can only be predicted, not planned, This renders it challenging for energy
distributors to efficiently accommodate renewable energy sources.
