Dear All
I am advertising three 36-month research posts to work on my ERC-funded INTENSE project -"INTElligent use of climate models for adaptatioN to non-Stationary hydrological Extremes". The project will use a novel and fully-integrated data-modelling approach to provide a step-change in our understanding of the nature and drivers of global precipitation extremes and change on societally relevant timescales.
This will be based around six key research questions:
i) How has sub-daily maximum precipitation changed over the last century, across continents, climate regimes and seasons?
ii) How does precipitation at different time-scales vary with atmospheric temperature and atmospheric moisture as the atmosphere warms?
iii) How do large-scale atmospheric and oceanic features influence or modulate the observed changes in precipitation extremes, the clustering of extremes and the variability between 'drought' and 'flood' periods, in different climate regimes and seasons?
iv) What is the influence of climate model resolution and structure on the simulation of precipitation extremes for different climate regimes and seasons?
v) What is likely the response to warming of precipitation and precipitation extremes at different time- scales across different climate regimes?
vi) How can we use information from both high-resolution and coarse-resolution climate models in a more intelligent way to inform climate change adaptation decision making to better manage extreme hydrological events?
Please see more information on the detailed duties for each post and how to apply on:

Ladder Faculty Search in Atmospheric Dynamics
At UCLA Department of Atmospheric & Oceanic Sciences
The UCLA Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences (AOS) seeks candidates for up to two ladder faculty positions in the broad area of Atmospheric Dynamics. The successful candidate(s) will demonstrate the potential to conduct exceptional research and an excellence in teaching. In addition, s/he will show a clear commitment to enhancing the diversity of the department's faculty members, graduate student population, and majors within the field. The appointments can be made at any level of seniority.
Candidates with research interests within atmospheric dynamics at any scale, including observational methods and analysis, modeling and theory, are invited to apply. The UCLA Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences is a vibrant and collaborative department whose faculty in atmospheric and ocean dynamics have long-standing strengths in the theory and modeling of large-scale circulations, moist convective processes, the general circulation, climate dynamics and the application of modern applied mathematics to problems in atmospheric and oceanic sciences.
The successful applicant must hold a Ph.D (or equivalent) degree at the time of appointment and will be expected to lead or develop a first rate program of research in Atmospheric Dynamics. He or she will be expected to contribute to the teaching mission of the AOS department, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Salary will be commensurate with education and experience. The target start date is on or after July 1, 2015.
Please submit your online application to the Search Committee for faculty positions in Atmospheric Dynamics at https://recruit.apo.ucla.edu/apply/JPF00519 . Please include: ; (1) curriculum vitae; (2) Cover letter; (3) a statement of teaching; (4) Statement of Research (5) a list of 3-5 individuals who are familiar with your work and can serve as a reference. Applications are due by January 15, 2015, but the position will remain open until filled.

Open position at the Center for Climate Systems Modeling (C2SM) / ETH Zurich
Scientific Programmer in Climate Modeling (80-100%)
The Center for Climate Systems Modeling (C2SM) is a joint venture
between ETH Zurich, MeteoSwiss, Empa, and WSL. The Center supports
research activities of more than 25 groups from the partner institutions
by contributing to the refinement and maintenance of a hierarchy of
climate models and the analysis and exploitation of climate datasets and
scenario. In particular, C2SM, in close collaboration with ETH and
MeteoSwiss, is currently involved in the development, maintenance and
hosting of the regional weather and climate model COSMO
(http://cosmo-model.org/).
C2SM is seeking to appoint a Scientific Programmer to support scientists
at ETH and partner institutions in the following tasks:
- Maintenance of the COSMO model and related tools
- Development and implementation of new features into the COSMO model
and related tools
- Porting and testing of the COSMO code on new computer architectures
- Provision of support to model users
- Organization of workshops and technical trainings
Required qualifications:
- Master or PhD in Computer Science, Atmospheric Science, Physics or
related field
- Relevant experience with weather and climate models
- Outstanding programming skills in Fortran and possibly C/C++, in a
Unix environment (other languages like Python, Ruby, etc. is a plus)
- Experience in high-performance computing and parallel programming
- Interest in providing support to students and scientists within a
large community
The position is available as of January 2015 (or as soon as possible
thereafter). Initial appointment at ETH Z?rich is for 1 year with
possibility of extension. This position offers a large variety of tasks
in a stimulating, international and cross-institutional environment and
an internationally competitive salary (based upon qualifications and
experience).
To apply: Applications (including a letter of interest, a CV, and the

Evaluation of applications will begin immediately and will continue
until the position is filled. Potential applicants seeking further
information are invited to contact C2SM Executive Director Isabelle Bey
(<isabelle.bey@env.ethz.ch>).
