The Department of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia
(UVA) seeks a Postdoctoral Research Associate in atmospheric boundary
layer meteorology. The Research Associate will work on 1) evaluating the
performance of atmospheric models in their simulation of boundary layer
depths, 2) improving the representation of boundary layer depths in
these models, and 3) assessing the impact of an improved representation
on the calculation of the North American carbon budget. Observations
will be combined with numerical models, including the community model
WRF and the carbon data assimilation system CarbonTracker.
The ideal candidate will have a background in atmospheric modeling,
boundary layer meteorology and a demonstrated record of research in
areas relevant to this position. The candidate should also have
extensive experience with data analysis and visualization (including the
ability to program in Fortran and IDL/Matlab) and numerical models (e.g.
WRF). This appointment may be renewed annually for a maximum of three
years, contingent upon satisfactory performance and the availability of
research funds.
The completion of a Ph.D. in Atmospheric Sciences or related field is
required by anticipated appointment start date of April 1, 2015.
To apply, complete a Candidate Profile through Jobs@UVa
(https://jobs.virginia.edu) and electronically attach the following: a
cover letter describing research experience and interests, a curriculum
vitae, and contact information for three (3) references; search on
posting number 0615706.
Review of complete applications will begin February 15, 2015; however,
the position will remain open until filled.
Questions regarding this position should be directed to:
Stephan de Wekker <dewekker@virginia.edu>
Questions regarding the Candidate Profile process or Jobs@UVa should be

employer committed to diversity, equity, and inclusiveness.
The University will perform background checks on all new faculty hires
prior to making a final offer of employment.
