Post-doc research position in Indian Ocean and Indian summer monsoon
climate variability
CMCC (Centro Euro-Mediterraneo per i Cambiamenti Climatici) is a
Consortium consisting of different Italian public and private research
institutions dedicated to climate-related research.
In the CMCC, the Division ANS (Numerical Analysis and Scenarios) focuses
on the study, through numerical simulations and theoretical analysis, of
the natural variability of the climate and the climatic changes, with a
particular emphasis on the European and Mediterranean region. The group
applies numerical models of different complexity and realism, from
simple and linear models to more complete and coupled models atmosphere-
ocean - sea-ice - vegetation - marine biogeochemistry.
This Division is now seeking a post-doc research fellow to work on
Indian Ocean and Indian summer monsoon climate variability within
INDO-MARECLIM collaborative project. Main duties will be to perform
analysis of climate variability and change on the Indian summer monsoon
region. Emphasis will be dedicated to the role of the Indian Ocean
variability, including its recent trend. The post-doc fellow will be
asked to analyze both model outputs and observations/reanalysis data, to
perform GCM experiments and to participate to the project activities in
terms of workshops and summer schools.
The candidates should have a Ph.D. in Atmospheric Sciences,
Oceanography, Environmental Sciences or related disciplines and
experience in numerical modeling. Basic knowledge of Unix and Fortran is
required.
Applicants should send by electronic mail to Dr. Annalisa Cherchi
(annalisa.cherchi@bo.ingv.it) a cover letter describing areas of
expertise and research interests and a comprehensive curriculum vitae
including names and addresses of two reference scientists.

Postdoctoral Position in Regional Paleoclimate Modeling
A postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Earth and
Planetary Sciences at the University of New Mexico. The postdoc will
perform regional paleoclimate modeling of tropical cyclones during the
Last Glacial Maximum and mid-Holocene to investigate the effects of
climate change on tropical cyclone climatology. The research will be
conducted as part of a joint project between the University of New
Mexico, Texas A&M University, and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory.
Demonstrated experience with the WRF or similar model is required, and
preference will be given to applicants with expertise in numerical
modeling of tropical cyclones. A PhD in atmospheric sciences or a
related field is required at the time of the appointment. The
position is available immediately, and will remain open until filled.
For further details, or to apply, please contact Dr. Joseph Galewsky
(galewsky@unm.edu). To apply, please include a CV, a brief statement
