Postdoctoral Researcher in Climate Dynamics in the College of
Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences at the University of Exeter
The College wishes to recruit a postdoctoral scientist in the general
area of climate dynamics to support the work of Professor Geoffrey
Vallis and Dr Hugo Lambert. This post is available immediately for at
least 30 months and is part of the Met Office Newton Fund Climate
Science for Service Partnership.
The post will include numerical modelling and theoretical activities
concerning the large-scale circulation of the atmosphere, its
interaction with convection and radiation, and the impact on regional
climate and its predictability. The work will use models of the
atmospheric circulation of varying levels of complexity with the aim of
identifying key sources of modelling uncertainty and building simple
models of robust processes that improve understanding of regional
climate change.
The successful applicant will be expected to present research progress
and outcomes at international conferences, write lead-author
peer-reviewed publications, and to assist with the preparation of
proposals and applications to external bodies.
Applicants will possess a relevant PhD and be able to demonstrate
sufficient knowledge in the discipline and of research methods and
techniques to work within established research programmes. The
successful applicant will be knowledgable in atmospheric, planetary or
geophysical fluid dynamics and be able to develop research programmes
and methodologies, and will also be able to work collaboratively and, as
appropriate, help supervise the work of others.
For further information please contact Geoffrey Vallis
(g.vallis@exeter.ac.uk) or Hugo Lambert (f.h.lambert@exeter.ac.uk).

The Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M) is a multidisciplinary center for climate and Earth system research located in Hamburg, Germany. MPI-M contributes to the BMBF project "From the Last Interglacial to the Anthropocene: Modeling a Complete Glacial Cycle" (PalMod), which aims at simulating the climate from the peak of the last interglacial up to the present using comprehensive Earth System Models.
With respect to this research project, we have an open positions for a
Postdoctoral Scientist (m/f, Ref. MPIM-W009)
The successful candidate will be part of a local team performing and analyzing transient simulations from the last Glacial to the Holocene with an interactively coupled atmosphere-ocean-ice sheet model. Additionally the candidate will contribute to the development of this model. The model system will consist of the MPI-Earth system model and the ice sheet model PISM.
Requirements
? A PhD in oceanography/meteorology/physics or a related science.
? Experience in performing and analyzing experiments with a comprehensive earth system model or ice sheet model;
? Strong motivation and ability to carry out model development in an interdisciplinary and international environment;
? Ability and desire to work in a closely cooperating team;
? Excellent communication skills and publication record;
? Familiarity with coding and running computer models, very good programming skills in FORTRAN (on a Linux platform) and scripting;
? Knowledge of the MPI-Earth system model or the ice sheet model PISM would be of advantage.
Employment conditions
? The position is initially offered for up to four years starting at November 1, 2015 or later.
? Payment will be in accordance with German public service positions (TVoeD E14), including extensive social security plans. The conditions of employment, including upgrades and duration, follow the rules of the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Sciences and those of the German civil service.
? The Max Planck Institute for Meteorology seeks to increase the number of female scientist and encourages them to apply. Handicapped persons with comparable qualifications receive preferential status.
Selection criteria
Candidates will be evaluated based on their qualifications and ability to fulfill the responsibilities as outlined for this project.
