issues, with innovation and sustainability as central themes. Research
and education are closely interwoven. The faculty consists of the
Departments of Design & Construction, Hydraulic Engineering, Transport
& Planning, Water Management and Geotechnology.
Job description
The development of a high resolution global hydrological model has
recently been put forward as Grand Challenge for the hydrological
community. In order to ensure proper parameterization of such a model,
massive assimilation of remotely sensed data is needed. Full use will
need to be made of the possibilities that recent trends in the
availability of computational power offer. The successful candidate
will develop the tools for global scale assimilation of satellite and
ground-based data into the PCR-GLOBWB model. While based at the Water
Resources Management group of Delft University of Technology
(wrm.tudelft.nl), the work will take place in close cooperation with
scientists from the eScience Center and Utrecht University.
Requirements
The applicant should have a PhD degree in a relevant science (such as
one of the Earth Sciences or Applied Physics) and have affinity with
large scale computational problems.
Conditions of employment
The successful candidate will be employed full-time by TU Delft for a
fixed period of two years. TU Delft offers an attractive benefits
package, including a flexible work week, free high-speed Internet
access from home (with a contract of two years or longer), and the
option of assembling a customised compensation and benefits package
(the 'IKA'). Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective
Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities.
Information and application

van de Giesen by e-mail n.c.vandegiesen@tudelft.nl. To apply, please
send a letter of application together with a Curriculum Vitae that
explicitly states your educational record, recent major achievements,
programming skills, list of publications, industrial experience (if
any) and the names of three persons who could be contacted for a
reference. Please e-mail the documents to the following address:

POST-DOC OPENING AT PACIFIC NORTHWEST NATIONAL LABORATORY
Job Title: Post Doc ? Algorithm Development & Analysis for
Multi-Resolution Climate Models
Job ID: 301465
Location: PNNL - Richland, WA
Group/Directorate: Atmospheric Chemistry & Meteorology / Fundamental &
Computational Sciences
Job Description
---------------
PNNL has an immediate opening and seeks a post-doctoral researcher to
develop expertise with the new generation of multi-resolution climate
models and to apply them to a variety of problems. Example models include
MPAS and the HOMME cores in CESM and stand-alone versions. The candidate
will work as part of a team tasked with improving the atmospheric physics
parameterizations so they operate well within multi-resolution grids. In
addition to prior atmospheric modeling experience, a specialization in a
particular parameterization type, e.g., clouds or the boundary layer, is
highly desirable. The PNNL group interacts with other leading climate
science activities nationally and internationally and this position can
lead to high visibility and leadership in the research community.
The successful candidate will:
* Conduct technical research on reducing scale dependence of climate model
parameterizations and document issues arising from their scale dependent
behavior
* Develop expertise and serve as a point-of-contact for the research team
for issues relating to running the multi-resolution model
* Publish research and present results in highly visible, peer-reviewed
venues (journals and conferences)
* Collaborate productively with internal and external scientists
Qualifications
--------------
* Familiarity with the WRF and/or CESM models, or equivalent
* Strong understanding of current cloud parameterization techniques
* Demonstrated ability to analyze observations and use them to evaluate
and understand model results
* Fluent in Fortran, and familiar with an interpreted computer language
(Perl, Python, IDL, etc.)
* Peer-reviewed publication record in a relevant area
* Ability to work independently and to efficiently deliver results
* Excellent verbal and written English communication skills
Minimum Requirements
--------------------
Candidates must have received a PhD within the past five years from an
accredited college or university. All staff at the Pacific Northwest
National Laboratory must be able to demonstrate the legal right to work in
the United States.
Equal Employment Opportunity
----------------------------
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is an Affirmative Action /
Equal Opportunity Employer and supports diversity in the workplace. All
employment decisions are made without regard to race, color, religion,
sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, marital or family
status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or genetic information. All
