Dear colleagues,
There is a vacancy for a PhD position in Meteorology at the Geophysical Institute, University of Bergen (UiB). The position is for a fixed-term period of 4 years. I would greatly appreciated if you could post this information and/or inform potential candidates at your department about this opportunity.
About the project/work tasks:
The PhD project will focus on air-sea interaction processes in the Gulf Stream and Kuroshio regions, with a particular focus on the mechanisms acting on the temporal and spatial scales from synoptic storms to storm tracks. The strong sea surface temperature gradients along these ocean currents strongly influence the atmosphere, in particular low-level baroclinicity. However, our understanding of the direct and indirect influences of sea surface temperature gradients on the atmosphere remains limited. The candidate will investigate the mechanisms by which oceanic fronts interact with cyclones and storm tracks using idealised simulations, reanalysis data, and fully coupled climate models including novel diagnostic tools.
The full position announcement, qualifications, and application procedure can be found via the link below:

Deadline for application is 8 February!
Best regards,
Thomas

The Université Pierre et Marie Curie is inviting applications for a 2-year
postdoctoral research position to undertake high-resolution model analysis
to investigate dynamical processes in the Southern Ocean polar seas.

(NB: webpage safety certificate needs to be updated - it will be very soon
- sorry for the inconvenience)
The post is attached to the WAPITI <http://wapiti-project.com/> project
(see http://wapiti-project.com/), which aims at mapping and unveiling the
dynamics of the tri-dimensional structure of the Weddell sea circulation.
The 5-year WAPITI <http://wapiti-project.com/> project funded by the
European Research Council aims at investigating a range of different
aspects of the Weddell Sea circulation, using a combination of targeted
observation, existing observation database, and high-resolution models, as
well as the use of new, specifically developed autonomous instruments. The
successful applicant will investigate the dynamics associated to
cross-frontal exchange and mixing in the Antarctic Slope Current using a
state-of-the art high-resolution oceanmodel (NEMO framework with ice-shelf
and sea-ice). The dynamics allowing to cross the dynamical barrier and
allowing the exchanges of water-masses across the Antarctic Slope Current
are not well understood. Recent theoretical and idealized studies suggest
the importance of 10 - 50 km eddy structures for this exchange. We will use
a state of the art realistic eddy-permitting model to explore how water
cross toward and from Antarctica shelf. In addition, strong emphasis will
be given to the flow/topography interactions and the dynamics associated to
it. Strong connexions between this model-based analysis and
observation-based analysis will be made. We particularly seek a researcher
with an interest in and talent in ocean model analysis and ability in
running numerical simulations to develop deeper dynamical understanding of
ocean circulation and climate. The researcher will join a team of
scientists at LOCEAN-IPSL in Paris (J.B. Sallée; M. Vancoppenolle; C.
Rousset) and will strongly collaborate with project partners at LGGE in
Grenoble (N. Jourdain; J. Le Sommer). It is expected that the succesfull
applicant spend significant time in Grenoble to engage and collaborate with
LGGE partners.
Informal requests for further information may be addressed to Jean-Baptiste
Sallée (jbsallee@gmail.com). Deadline for sending application: 28 Feb 2016.
