Postdoctoral Research Positions in Ozone Hole ? Climate Dynamics
Applications are invited for multiple postdoctoral associate or research scientist positions as part of new multi-institutional, NSF-funded Frontiers of Earth System Dynamics, project to examine the impact of the ozone hole on the climate of the Southern Hemisphere. This project involves the use of a hierarchy of numerical experiments to explore the coupling between atmospheric chemistry and dynamics, ocean circulation and biogeochemistry, and the cryosphere, and brings together scientists from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Columbia University (CU), Johns Hopkins University (JHU) and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position
in the atmospheric processes research group within the Climate Change
Research Centre within the Faculty of Science, University of New South
Wales in Sydney, Australia. The atmospheric process group aims to
further our understanding of the global weather and climate system and
in particular the role of cloud and convective processes in controlling
the behaviour of larger-scale weather phenomena and climate change.
This position focuses specifically on a project, funded by the
Australian Research Council, that seeks to examine and better understand
links between convective behaviour in the present-day atmosphere and
cloud feedbacks on global climate. This work will likely involve the use
of numerical cloud-system resolving models and analysis of observations,
but may also involve the use of global atmosphere models.
This is a full time (35 hours per week) fixed term appointment for 3
years, starting in early to mid 2014. Salary is A$81K - A$87K per year
(plus 17% employer superannuation and leave loading)
Applications close 14 February. For more information and application
