The Earth Research Institute at the University of California,

rel="nofollow"
style="box-sizing:border-box;color:rgb(18,149,216);text-decoration-line:none"

seeking a postdoctoral scientist to contribute to a DOE-funded
project focusing on understanding the mechanisms for tropical
and extratropical Pacific decadal variability in present and
future climates. <br style="box-sizing:border-box" class="">
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to define
their own original sub-project aligned with the project goals,
in collaboration with investigators at UC Santa Barbara, the
Georgia Institute of Technology, the NOAA Earth System Research
Laboratory, and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The
candidate will also have primary responsibility for generating,
and the first opportunity to analyze, a new ‘Large Ensemble’ of
future climate projections with the new DOE Energy Exascale
Earth System Model (E3SM). This ensemble will be released to the
public upon completion of the project and form a vital new
community resource. The position will be located at the Bren
School at UC Santa Barbara, but will involve collaborative
visits to LANL to facilitate work with E3SM, as well as
in-person and remote interactions with the other team leads.</p>

<div class=""><b class="">Postdoctoral Fellow position in tropical
climate research (position remains open until filled)</b></div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">We are planning to fill a postdoctoral position in
the newly established research team “<i class="">Tropical
climate dynamics: past, present, future</i>” led by Dr. Malte
Stuecker (<<a

Korea.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP), directed
by Dr. Axel Timmermann, is dedicated to advancing the
understanding of natural climate variability, man-made climate
change and their impacts on the hydrological cycle, regional
processes, ice-sheets, and sea level. The ICCP is generously
funded through the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) (<<a
href="http://ibs.re.kr/" target="_blank" class="">http://ibs.re.kr</a>>).</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Applicants for this position should have a PhD in
physical oceanography, atmospheric science, climate dynamics, or
a related field. Postdoctoral Fellows are expected to have
strong computational skills, a good publication record, a high
level of independence and creativity, and an interest in working
in an international and interdisciplinary research environment.
Our tropical climate research team studies large-scale climate
dynamics and modes of climate variability (e.g., ENSO and
decadal variability). For instance, we are interested in the
question of which temperature and precipitation patterns will
emerge in response to anthropogenic forcing and how climate
feedbacks will respond. This is contrasted to the dynamical
response of the climate system to different forcings in past
climates. Furthermore, we plan to investigate the greater role
of tropical climate in the Earth system (such as its linkages
with high latitude climate and the marine carbon cycle). To
address these questions, we will utilize both high resolution
coupled climate model simulations and large ensemble experiments
that are currently conducted on our new 1 Pflop supercomputer.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Postdoctoral fellows will receive a competitive
salary (50 million KRW/year, which is approx. 45,000 USD/year),
support for conference travel, support for relocation, access to
our new supercomputer, as well as benefits (health and social
insurance contributions) and incentives (up to an additional 30%
of the annual salary).</div>

</div>
<div class="">ICCP is located in Busan, the second largest city in
South Korea and the ninth largest port city in the world.
Surrounded by ocean and mountains, the city has a dramatic
natural background, and the multitude of neighborhoods in Busan
each have a distinct character. From designer cafes and casual
bars to temples at the end of hiking trails, and good food at
every place imaginable, Busan has something for everyone. Also,
Busan is an international metropolis characterized by remarkably
low living costs.</div>
