Please advertise;
A NERC funded Envision PhD project at Bangor University (School of Ocean Sciences, http://www.bangor.ac.uk/oceansciences/), investigating the Far-Field Implications of Future Sea Ice Extent on the Wave Climate.
In partnership with experts in the Met Office, future climate model projections will be coupled to a wave model to determine the future extreme wave climate in the North Atlantic. By propagating these projected changes through to impact on coastal processes and coastal communities, you will also explore the role of waves in ocean-atmosphere exchange, coastal resilience, and flood risk. With experts from the National Oceanography Centre and Bangor University, you will be trained in extreme value theory and hydrodynamic modelling techniques. Your predicted changes to the extreme wave climate will be propagated through to societal impact using a suite of numerical modelling methodologies. For example, future changes to the available marine renewable energy resource, coastal flood risk, and coastal engineering design criteria, such as harbour walls, wind farms, and intensification of aquaculture.
Applicants should hold a minimum of a UK Honours Degree at 2:1 level or equivalent in subjects such as Physics, Mathematics, Oceanography, Meteorology, Civil Engineering or Geography.
Deadline for applications is 13th Jan.

Subject: [Met-jobs] Postdoctoral research fellow in snow-climate
modelling at University of Waterloo, Canada

The department of Geography and Environmental Management at the University of Waterloo, Canada invites applications for a postdoctoral research fellow in the climate modelling and analysis group (<http://env-web3.uwaterloo.ca/c5fletch/>). The successful applicant will design, implement and analyze a suite of global land surface and climate model simulations to assess the impact of snow process parameterizations on climate. The position involves collaborating with colleagues at the Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis in Victoria, British Columbia (<http://www.cccma.ec.gc.ca>). The position is funded by the CanSISE network (<http://www.cansise.ca>), which is a Canada-wide network of researchers from academia and government labs, engaged in climate modelling efforts related to sea ice and snow evolution.
Requirements: the applicant must have a Ph.D. (or be about to defend) in atmospheric science, physics, chemistry, applied mathematics, or a related field, experience with global or regional modeling of the atmosphere and/or land surface, highly effective oral and written communication skills, and the ability to work as part of a research team. Experience using the NCAR Community Earth System Model (CESM), or the Canadian Earth System Model (CanESM), would be an advantage.
The position has an anticipated start date of July 1 2016. The initial appointment is for one year with the possibility of renewal based on performance. A review of applications begins February 1 and will continue until the position is filled.
To apply, please send a single document in PDF format containing a cover letter summarizing research interests and career goals, current CV, and contact information for three references to Dr Chris Fletcher (chris.fletcher@uwaterloo.ca<mailto:chris.fletcher@uwaterloo.ca>).
