PhD position in chemistry-climate modeling
The group of the Institute for Atmospheric and Climate Science, ETH,
Zurich is offering a PhD position within the project ?Future and past
solar influence on the terrestrial climate (FUPSOL)? funded by the
Swiss National Science Foundation. The main goal of this project is to
study the response of the climate and ozone layer to the long-term
variability of the solar activity. The PhD student will apply a
state-of-the-art Atmosphere-Ocean-Climate-Chemistry Model to simulate
the climate and ozone layer behavior, analyze the results, and compare
them with observations.
The candidate should have a Master or Diploma degree in physics,
mathematics, environmental or earth sciences or engineering. The
candidate should further have deep interest in the modeling of physical
or chemical processes in the atmosphere at all scales or some experience
in numerical climate and chemistry modeling. Good knowledge of
