1 Post-Doctoral Position and 2 Ph.D. Positions
Leibniz-Institute of Marine Sciences (IFM-GEOMAR), University of Kiel
Three positions are sought for a DFG funded project on improving our
understanding of Atlantic multi-decadal climate variability and
predictability, beginning January 1st, 2008.
Postdoctoral scientist shall be employed to develop and apply a
hybrid-coupled model for investigating the solution space of Atlantic climate
variability with respect to key parameters. Results will be used to
reduce uncertainties in the mechanisms of Atlantic multi-decadal
variability, and to explain variability of climate models.
PhD student shall be employed to analyse the simulated variability in
climate models and in idealized model experiments.
PhD student shall be employed to investigate statistical/dynamical
methods for ocean reconstruction using historical data. The work will
involve running coupled and uncoupled climate models.
Applicants for the postdoctoral position must have a PhD in
meteorology, oceanography, mathematics, or physics. Applicants for the PhD
positions must have a university degree in mathematics, physics, meteorology,
or oceanography. Experience in dynamical systems theory, climate
modelling, and analysis of observational/model data are desired.
The postdoctoral position is initially for two years, but with possible
extension to a third year. The PhD positions are each for three years.
The salary class will be E 13 TV-L of the German tariffs for public
employees. The IFM-GEOMAR is an equal opportunity employer and encourages
female scientists and scientists with disabilities to apply.
Applications must be in writing, and include a cover letter, CV,
contact details of at least two referees, and a one-page statement outlining
the applicant’s research interests.
Applications are to be sent by the 31st of October 2007 to:
Position - “Decadal-Variability”
