Subject: [Met-jobs] PhD position in regional scale climate-carbon
cycle modeling
To: <met-jobs@lists.reading.ac.uk>

In the framework of the CarboCount-CH project funded by the Swiss
National Science Foundation, the Institute for Atmospheric and Climate
Sciences of ETH Z?rich offers a PhD position in regional scale
climate-carbon cycle modeling. The overarching goal of CarboCount-CH is
to combine advanced modeling and experimental methods to quantify
greenhouse gas fluxes between the biosphere and the atmosphere and their
sensitivity to climate variations at the regional scale and more
specifically over Switzerland. CarboCount-CH is a collaborative project
between 6 Swiss institutes at ETH Zurich, Empa and the University of
Bern and is closely associated with the Centre for Climate Systems
Modeling (C2SM).
The successful candidate will develop an integrated biosphere-atmosphere
modeling system representing explicitly the interactions between energy,
water and carbon fluxes at the European scale. This system will be used
to investigate how these fluxes and the atmospheric carbon budget
respond to climate variability and trends, in particular in relation to
soil moisture dynamics and droughts. The modeling system will build upon
the recently developed COSMO-CLM^2 model combining a Regional Climate
Model and an advanced Land Surface Model (more information concerning
COSMO-CLM^2 can be found here:
http://www.iac.ethz.ch/groups/seneviratne/research/COSMO-CLM-CLM). Until
now, COSMO-CLM^2 has been used without the existing but optional carbon
and nitrogen module. Within this PhD thesis, COSMO-CLM^2 will be further
developed to incorporate explicitly climate-carbon cycle interactions
and to allow the simulation of CO2 exchanges between the terrestrial
biosphere and the atmosphere. Historical simulations will then be
carried out and analyzed focusing on the linkages between the climate,
biogeochemical cycles and vegetation processes (such as phenology) in
particular in the context of heat waves and droughts.
The PhD student will be supervised by Prof. Sonia Seneviratne (ETH) and
Prof. Nicolas Gruber (ETH). The PhD student will closely collaborate
with two other PhD students in the project and will be supported by
technical staff and postdocs hired through the project. The
CarboCount-CH project will start in January 2011 and applicants should
be able to begin before spring 2012. The desired qualifications for the
PhD candidates are: Master degree in atmospheric and/or climate
sciences, physics, computational sciences or a closely related
discipline; experience with a higher programming language; fluency in
English; good communication skills; interest in climate change research.
For further information about the position please contact Prof. Sonia
Seneviratne (sonia.seneviratne@env.ethz.ch). See also
http://www.iac.ethz.ch/groups/seneviratne/research and

In order to receive full consideration, applications must be submitted
online via button below before December 31, 2011. Applications should
include a CV, your research interest, a list of publications and the
names of two academic referees. Please address your application to ETH
Zurich, Rolf Oertli, Human Resources, 8092 Z?rich.

The Earth Observation and Tropospheric Chemistry Group at the
University of Edinburgh (http://www.geos.ed.ac.uk/research/eochem) is
offering three studentship projects in atmospheric chemistry for 2012 entry:
1) Forest fires and global atmospheric chemistry.
[Part-funding from the NERC National Centre for Atmospheric Science]
2) Oceanic fluxes of very short-lived (VSL) halocarbons and their
subsequent atmospheric chemistry and transport.
3) What drives emissions of isoprene in the tropics?
[Part-funding from Macquarie University, Australia]
For further project details please see:
www.geos.ed.ac.uk/research/eochem/vacancies.html
Applicants (restricted to UK citizens) should have an upper second class or
first class degree in atmospheric physics/chemistry or one of the
physical sciences. In the first instance, candidates should send their
CV to Prof. Paul Palmer at the University of Edinburgh
(pip@ed.ac.uk).

Post -doctoral research associate in regional climate/ocean modelling
Department of Physics, Imperial College London
Salary range: ?31,300 - ?35,810 per annum (depending on experience)
Full time, fixed term: up to 3 years (initially)
Closing Date: until filled
Starting Date: January 2012 (preferred)
You would join an active and growing group within the Space and Atmospheric Physics group. We are developing a new regional climate model based on coupling of the atmospheric model (WRF) and the regioanl ocean model system(ROMS). We are interested in a number of understudied regions around the world (e.g the Caspian, West Africa and others) with a unique and exciting set of environmental challenges. There is also an opportunity to work closely with industry which can give further career options.
You must have a PhD. in ocean or coastal science. You should have experience with ROMS or other advanced ocean models. Demonstrated skill/proficiency in the following areas is desirable: running complex model codes on high-performance computers, advanced knowledge of numerical modelling, skill in analyzing numerical model output and verification statistics, skill in scientific programming (e.g., Fortran and/or C) and scripting languages such as Perl and/or Python, as well as some skills in graphical display programs such as NCL, Matlab, and/or IDL. Experience processing very large datasets in a variety of formats (e.g., GRIB, netCDF3/4 and HDF4/5) is important.
Please send brief CV to Prof Ralf Toumi: r.toumi@imperial.ac.uk
