8. Ocean/Ice Modeller, British Antarctic Survey
Cambridge, UK
The British Antarctic Survey (BAS), part of the Natural Environment
Research Council, aims to undertake a world-class programme of
scientific research, and to sustain for the UK an active and influential
regional presence and a leadership role in Antarctic affairs.
Based within the Polar Oceans programme at our Cambridge office, you
will be part of a team investigating oceanographic variability in the
Southern Ocean and the Arctic, and its impacts on the Earth System. The
group runs sophisticated idealised, regional and global oceanographic
models (including sea ice and ice shelf components) to simulate past
conditions and also to predict how the ocean will evolve in the future.
Models are run on local and national supercomputing facilities. You will
be responsible for creating a model of the ocean, sea ice, and ice
shelves in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica. You will use this model to study
the formation and evolution of dense water masses in the region,
including the effect of tides. These dense shelf waters ultimately
contribute to the production of Antarctic Bottom Water, which pervades
the deep oceans worldwide.

9. Sea Ice Modeller, British Antarctic Survey
Cambridge, UK
Based within the Polar Oceans programme at our Cambridge office, you
will be part of a team investigating oceanographic variability in the
Southern Ocean and the Arctic, and its impacts on the Earth System. The
group runs sophisticated idealised, regional and global oceanographic
models (including sea ice and ice shelf components) to simulate past
conditions and predict how the ocean will evolve in the future. Models
are run on local and national supercomputing facilities.
You will be responsible for running a model of the Southern Ocean and
its sea ice in order to study trends in Antarctic sea ice over the last
3 decades. This work is part of a collaborative NERC project between
oceanographers, meteorologists, and climate scientists at BAS, the
National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, and the Met Office Hadley
Centre in Exeter. The ultimate aim of the project is to understand why
Antarctic sea ice has expanded in recent decades, in sharp contrast to
the dramatic decline in ice witnessed in the Arctic.

10. Associate Research Fellow, University of Exeter
Exeter, UK
The College wishes to recruit an Associate Research Fellow to support
the work of Dr Darren Croft, Prof Michael Cant and Dr Daniel Franks
(University of York) . This NERC (Natural Environment Research Council )
funded post is available from 1^st November 2013 to 31^st October 2016
and will be based at the Centre for Research in Animal Behaviour,
Exeter. The successful applicant will work as part of an
interdisciplinary team to identify the social drivers of survival and
fecundity in two resident killer whale populations. Working with project
partners in the USA and Canada the project will use multigenerational
demographic and social databases that span over three decades. By
applying a of combination life history analysis, theoretical modelling,
social network analysis and behavioural observations this project will
provide the first empirical test in a non-human animal of the general
theoretical framework proposed to explain reproductive senescence in
natural populations.
The post will include data management and analysis, modelling of social
and life history data, field visits to the study populations, research
planning, collaborative team working, preparing reports and
publications, organising meetings and presenting research findings to a
range of different audiences.
