Rebecca Knight

I am a PhD student with a focus on improving our understanding of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet contribution to future sea level rise. I use computer models along with observations and paleoclimate proxies to better understand how the ice sheet changed when the world was warmer than present.

I started my PhD at University of Exeter in 2024, with supervisors Dr Ed Gasson (University of Exeter), Dr Kate Littler (University of Exeter), and Dr Taryn Noble (University of Tasmania).

Prior to starting my PhD, I worked for 10 years in the Energy industry in a range of modelling and forecasting roles, with a particular interest in probabilistic approaches to quantifying the impact of weather on Electricity Security of Supply.
