Tropical Convection Research Fellow (3-year position)
ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science & School of Earth Sciences, The University of Melbourne, Melbourne Australia
We invite applications for a three-year postdoctoral fellowship focused on modelling tropical convection. We seek a highly qualified and motivated candidate with interests in numerical modelling, cloud processes, and/or mesoscale atmospheric dynamics. The appointee will use convection-permitting and cloud-resolving simulations of tropical convection to address fundamental questions concerning the processes contributing to convective organization. We will examine the role of convective momentum transports, wave-convection coupling, and other mesoscale influences on organization. These results will also contribute to our broader efforts testing and developing new parameterization schemes for global climate models. Prior experience with a mesoscale or cloud-resolving model (e.g., WRF, CM1, SAM, etc.) is highly desirable.
This position is located within The University of Melbourne?s School of Earth Sciences under the supervision of Assoc. Prof. Todd Lane, but also sits within the tropical convection research program of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science (www.climatescience.org.au). This program cuts across multiple institutions and the appointee will benefit from being an integral part of the team and contribute to the broader research program. We anticipate commencement of the appointment around mid-2014, but earlier or later start dates will be considered on request. Applications should be received by 11:55pm (AEST) 16 February 2014.
To apply for this position or obtain the full position description go to: http://jobs.unimelb.edu.au/jobDetails.asp?sJobIDs=881476
For more information please contact Todd Lane (tplane@unimelb.edu.au); full applications must be submitted via the above website.

Postdoc on ATMOSPHERIC TROPICAL AND EXTRATROPICAL CIRCULATIONS at Melbourne University, Australia
The Postdoctoral Research Fellow will join the research group on climate variability and climate change at The University of Melbourne led by Professor Ian Simmonds under three-year funding from the Australian Research Council. The appointee will assist in quantifying the behaviour of largescale tropical circulations, and particularly the overturning Hadley and Walker circulations. Emphasis will be placed on their recent variability and trends, as well as those prognosed from model simulations and CMIP5 global climate model projections. The project will also explore the behaviour subtropical and extratropical baroclinic eddies, and how these co-vary with the tropical circulations to give rise to 'seamless' meridional energy transports. An end product will be a new perspective on Australian rainfall variability, both in the past and into the future. The project will involve the application and development of a suite of sophisticated analysis tools and physical-dynamical models. The appointee will collaborate with researchers from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research and the Australian Universities' Climate Consortium, as well as international research groups.
This is a three-year full time position
