Dear colleagues,
The Planetary Physics group at the Technical University Berlin (TU Berlin) works on exoplanet science as well as solar system objects.
We are announcing two open positions:
- A postdoc position on numerical atmospheric climate modelling of the Early Earth during its magma ocean phase.
- A PhD position on modelling the impact of cosmic rays on atmosphere biosignatures expected on habitable extrasolar planets.
Both positions are in close collaboration with the exoplanet group at DLR, Berlin. See attachments for further details.
Applications can be sent to heike.rauer@dlr.de or claudia.kieschke@tu-berlin.de until April 8, 2016.
Best regards,
Heike Rauer

Subject: [Met-jobs] Post-doctoral position at the University of
Cologne - Cloud scheme development for ICON
Message-ID: <56E7C013.7010509@uni-koeln.de>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed"
The Institute for Geophysics and Meteorology, University of Cologne
(IGMK), Germany, invites applications for a
**Post-doctoral position*
*on "Assumed PDF cloud schemes for the global climate model ICON and
their interaction with radiation". The position is related to the High
Definition of Clouds and Precipitation for Climate Prediction HD(CP)^2
project ( http://hdcp2.eu/ ) that will start its second phase in Spring
2016. In this phase the tools developed during phase I, including a
high-resolution version of the ICON model and a comprehensive
observational data base, will be exploited to address scientific
questions related to clouds in a changing climate. The position (100%
TV‐L E13) is awarded for 30 months. We offer a productive and
interdisciplinary working atmosphere including several possibilities for
career development.
*Requirements*
We expect strong interest in atmospheric science with specialization in
parameterization development and cloud modelling. Applicants should have
a Master-of-Science-equivalent university degree in meteorology,
geophysics, physics or mathematics and preferably hold a PhD degree.
Experience in scientific programming, preferably in a UNIX/LINUX
environment, and knowledge in computational modelling is highly
desirable. Candidates must possess excellent communication skills both
in written and spoken English.
*Detailed project description*
Low-level boundary layer clouds and their connected processes remain
unresolved in most present-day global climate models, and are a major
source of future climate uncertainty. In particular cloud inhomogeneity,
within single clouds and whole cloud fields, is often poorly
represented. New cloud schemes based on probability density functions
(PDF) provide opportunities to achieve a better description of the
associated subgrid-scale variability. Another advantage of PDF-based
cloud schemes is that they could facilitate parameterization integration
– e.g. between cloud physics, dynamics and radiation. The successful
candidate will work on PDF-based cloud schemes in the framework of the
newly developed ICON model. A model hierarchy, including single-column
modeling and large-eddy simulation, will be used for the evaluation of
existing schemes and the development of new ideas. Building on these
results a new or extended scheme will be developed and implemented in
the global ICON model. During the whole process the focus will be on the
interaction between the cloud scheme and the radiation parameterization,
working towards a better representation of cloud inhomogeneity in
general. For more information contact Dr. Vera Schemann:
schemann[at]meteo.uni-koeln.de or Prof. Dr. Roel A. J. Neggers:
neggers[at]meteo.uni-koeln.de
*Applications
*
Interested candidates should send a CV; a cover letter describing
background, training and research interests; certificates; and the
contact information of two referees as a single PDF to
meteo-jobs[at]uni‐koeln.de. Review of applications will begin
immediately and continue until the positions have been filled. The
deadline for applications is *8 April **2016*.
***Selection
*
The selection for the positions will be based solely on merit without
regard to gender, religion, national origin, political affiliation,
marital or family status or other differences. Among equally qualified
candidates, handicapped candidates will be given preference.
