Internship- Evaluation of the decadal prediction performance in capturing the changing frequency of wind drought events over Europe - M/F chez TotalEnergies

As an intern responsible for evaluating the performance of decadal forecasts in capturing the changing frequency of wind drought episodes in Europe, your tasks will be as follows:Evaluate the performance of decadal climate prediction models in reproducing wind drought episodes and the large-scale factors causing these events (e.g. blockages). Compare model results with reanalysis datasets (e.g. ERA5) and observational data. Identify systematic biases and uncertainties in the forecasts. Propose robust indicators for the operational characterisation of wind droughts.Methodology:Statistical analysis of wind time series at surface level and at wind turbine height.Definition of thresholds and criteria for detecting wind drought events.Cross-validation between forecasts and reference datasets.Mapping of risk areas and visualisation of results.You will work within a team of experienced professionals and with a mentor-coach who will serve as a reference for your future career. Personalised support will help you develop your independence and guide you to your degree! Postuler maintenant
