The Universit? catholique de Louvain in Belgium
(<http://www.uclouvain.be>) announces the opening of a post-doctoral
position on a full time basis, funded by the Belgian Federal Science
Policy Office, within the framework of the project "Improving the
representation and prediction of climate processes through stochastic
parameterization schemes-STOCHCLIM", involving partners from the Royal
Meteorological Institute, Universit? catholique de Louvan, and the Royal
University of Gent.

Candidates should hold a PhD degree in physics, mathematics or
engineering, and have research experience in the broad area of nonlinear
dynamics, stochastic processes, and statistical inference. The
successful candidate will be part of a team comprising scientists
engaged in fundamental research on dynamical meteorology as well as
scientists involved in operational weather forecasting models. The
specific duty of the job-holder within the project will be to focus on
calibration and sensitivity analysis of stochastic parameterisation
schemes, by reference to methods of statistical inference such as those
developed to quantify uncertainties in computer modelling.

The successful candidate will be based at Universit? catholique de
Louvain, within the Georges Lemaitre Centre for Earth and Climate
Research (<http://www.uclouvain.be/en-teclim.html>), under the supervision
of Michel Crucifix.

An advertisement for another position in the context of the same project
is also published at the Royal Meteorological Institute at :
<http://www.meteo.be/meteo/view/fr/125431-Offres+d%27emploi.html?view=12602984>

The successful candidate will be appointed for a 1 year period, possibly
renewable. The salary will be determined on the basis of the
qualifications and the past experience, following the rules of the
Belgian legislation.

Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to announce a 12-month postdoc position in Statistical
Climatology at LSCE-IPSL (near Paris.
Feel free to forward this announcement to anyone might be interested.

Best regards,
Mathieu Vrac


12-month Postdoc position in Statistical Climatology at LSCE-IPSL
(near Paris)

Extremes ? uncertainty modelling ? Bias correction

Scientific context:

The motivation of the REMEMBER project is to understand and model the
Mediterranean climate system and specifically the processes leading to
heavy precipitation, floods, heat waves, droughts and sea-level rise,
not only as separate processes within each Earth compartment, but as
coupled mechanisms with feedback loops. This is crucial to characterize
how these processes will respond to climate change, in order to make
decision on development of adaptation strategies.

If those characterizations ? through various statistical indicators ?
are a primary need to understand the information content of the regional
models, the evaluation and modelling of their uncertainties are
essential. Those can be achieved with so-called ?model-merging?
approaches that quantify the global uncertainties and variabilities
associated with an ensemble of models outputs, and define combinations
of those outputs to create new outputs, more relevant and realistic in
comparison to observations. If different model-merging techniques were
more or less successful on global climate models, very few have been
applied on RCMs simulations and none on indicators results.

However, regional climate simulations are often biased and correction
methods have to be applied to provide relevant information for
end-users. Modelling the full climate systems by coupling sophisticated
models of the different compartments is an a priori necessity to
accurately simulate the regional climate but biases of each model can
propagate and therefore affect the simulated regional climate. It is
thus necessary to quantify the potential added-value of fully coupled
regional climate system models with respect to stand-alone de-biased
regional climate models to provide relevant indicators and tailor
information to the needs of policy makers and society actors.

Postdoc work:

The successful candidate will be involved in three different but related
scientific questions:

1.Identification of relevant diagnostics and indicators to characterize
and evaluate regional climate simulations in terms of heavy
precipitation, floods, heat waves, droughts and sea-level rise. Those
indicators will rely on statistical properties (e.g., spatial and
temporal variability and dependencies, features of extreme events) to
summarize the high-resolution climate simulations.

2.Uncertainty associated with the diagnostics and indicators will then
be studied within the so-called ?model-merging? approaches. This will
provide quantitative estimate of the uncertainties associated with the
relevant indicators for heavy precipitation and floods, heat-waves and
droughts and sea-level rise.

3.De-biasing procedures will then be applied to standalone and coupled
regional climate models.

Required skills:

The hired postdoc has to be familiar with the main issues related to
climate modelling (without necessarily being a modeller). She/he has to
possess solid statistical bases and a strong interest for climate and
multidisciplinary studies. The knowledge of R or Matlab would be
appreciated.

Where:

The work will take place at ?Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de
l?Environnement? (LSCE, Orme des Merisiers, Saclay, near Paris, France)
with some regular contacts with colleagues from other labs, both in IPSL
(LMD, LATMOS) and in M?t?o-France (CNRM, Toulouse).

Salary: Between 2 000 and 3 000 ? per month depending on experience.

Start: Spring or (at the max) Summer 2014.

End: 12 months later.

Applications:

A detailed CV (including the list of publications), a motivation letter
as well as the names of 2 or 3 reference persons (NO letter is asked for
the moment) should be sent to mathieu.vrac@lsce.ipsl.fr
<mailto:mathieu.vrac@lsce.ipsl.fr>. Full consideration will be given to
applications received before January 31, 2014 and the position will
remain open until filled.

Dear all,

The ICOS RI seeks a Director of the Carbon Portal (DCP) for a full-time
position. The position is initially for 5 years but the General Assembly
can decide upon the extent of the duration. It is expected that the DCP
will be selected by February 2014 and it is desirable that the applicant
can start working as soon as possible after the decision has been taken.
Initially, the position will be placed at Lund University and then
transferred to the ICOS ERIC once the ERIC is in place. The physical
location of the position is Lund University, Lund, Sweden.

The European ICOS Research Infrastructure (ICOS RI) carries out the
long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) observations required to understand the
present state and predict the future behavior of the global carbon cycle
and greenhouse gas sinks/sources (see
<http://www.icos-infrastructure.eu/>). ICOS is a distributed
infrastructure consisting of national observation station networks,
Central Facilities, a Carbon Portal and a Head Office (HO). The legal
entity, pending application and subsequent approval by the European
Commission, is the ICOS European Research Infrastructure Consortium
(ERIC) that will be located in Helsinki, Finland together with the HO.
The Carbon Portal (CP) will be part of ICOS ERIC and hosted by Lund
University, Sweden with a secondary node in the Netherlands. A detailed
description of the ICOS infrastructure and the roles of the CP can be
found at <http://www.icos-infrastructure.eu/?q=node/16>.
