Job Title: Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Atmospheric Modeling and Prediction

NSF NCAR's Climate and Global Dynamics Laboratory is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join their Atmospheric Modeling and Prediction Section. The successful candidate will contribute to the INtegrating Field Observations and Research Models initiative, focusing on creating a research infrastructure that integrates modeling and observing facilities to provide a highly effective framework and community-ready tools to assess and improve the capabilities of modeling and observing systems.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Perform Community Earth System Model and Single Column Atmosphere Model simulations necessary for establishing best practices for model setup and assessment against field campaign observations that target multiple components of the Earth system model.
  • Collaborate with observational and model experts to co-design instrument simulators, contextualize observational datasets, determine observation uncertainties, and investigate representativeness errors in observational datasets needed to assess aerosol-cloud interactions.
  • Engage with model development scientists on incorporating new COMPASS diagnostics in model development practices, including the implementation and testing of new parameterizations.
  • Present results at relevant scientific meetings, lead and participate in writing scientific journal articles that document findings of the project, and contribute to formal reports related to the project.
Requirements:
  • A Ph.D. or equivalent experience in atmospheric/climate sciences or similar discipline.
  • Demonstrated understanding of climate science and research experience in a relevant field, with contributions to refereed journals.
  • Expertise in modeling and/or observations of aerosol-cloud interactions and/or other Earth system processes.
  • Expertise working with large geophysical datasets, including climate model output and/or field campaign datasets.
  • Demonstrated understanding of atmospheric science, convection, cloud microphysics, and/or aerosol physics.
  • Strong computation/programming skills.
  • Strong written and oral communication skills, especially for scientific publications and presentations.
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively with a diverse team of modelers, observationalists, and software engineers.
Benefits:
  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Opportunity to work with a talented team of researchers and scientists.
  • Access to state-of-the-art research facilities and equipment.
  • Professional development opportunities, including training and conference attendance.
How to Apply:

To apply, please submit your application materials, including your resume, cover letter, and questionnaire, to the designated contact. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applications from diverse candidates.
