PhD opportunities available in land surface modelling- Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science
Deadline: July 18th (international applicants).
Deadline: September 16th (Australian and New Zealand citizens, Australian permanent residents).
The Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science Professor Andy Pitman<https://www.climatescience.org.au/staff/profile/apitman> is looking for PhD students to work in several areas important to climate science. These include:
-Land surface model development, focusing on the representation of extreme events including drought and heatwaves
-Innovative evaluation of land surface models using observations
-Representation and implementation of land cover change in climate model simulations
-Relationship between hydrological modelling and extremes in climate models
These projects will likely be collaborative with experts in France, UK, US, and/or Switzerland.
All of these projects will lead to considerable experience in high performance supercomputing, and/or an ability to handle "big data". You will learn Python and other languages. You will also likely develop strong statistical skills. You will also engage with international experts and have opportunities spend time in Europe or the US working with colleagues.
Students will become part of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science- an international research consortium of five Australian universities (The University of New South Wales, Monash University, The University of Melbourne, The University of Tasmania and The Australian National University) and a suite of outstanding national and international Partner Organizations. The Centre provides opportunities for travel and graduate student development. http://www.climatescience.org.au
Applicants must have a strong academic track record including an Honours Class I or equivalent. Graduates with a background in physics, mathematics, atmospheric science or engineering are particularly encouraged to apply.
If you are interested in applying please complete our Expression of Interest form:

Postdoctoral Positions in Climate and Atmospheric Dynamics at UCLA
UCLA Dept. of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences seeks postdoctoral scholars in Climate and Atmospheric dynamics, for positions supervised by Prof. David Neelin and Prof. Gang Chen. One position will be in the area of tropical moist dynamics and involves a combination of observational analysis, running and analyzing climate models and/or stochastic modeling aiming at understanding the moist processes underlying extreme event statistics and constraining or improving their representation in climate models. Another position will be in the area of large-scale atmospheric dynamics and transport. The goal of the project is to understand the large-scale atmospheric transport and mixing of moisture and/or trace gases, how the atmospheric circulation may respond to future climate change, and the implications for extreme weather events, using a combination of observations, theory, and/or idealized and comprehensive modeling. The positions are available immediately. Each position would initially be for one year, but renewable for up to two years, contingent upon satisfactory progress. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences or a related field, effective oral and written communication skills, and strong programming and analytical skills.
Applicants should submit a complete CV, including a list of refereed publications and contact information for three references. These materials should be addressed to David Neelin <neelin@atmos.ucla.edu> and Gang Chen <gchenpu@atmos.ucla.edu>. The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age or protected veteran status. For the complete University of California nondiscrimination and affirmative action policy please follow this link: http://policy.ucop.edu/doc/4000376/NondiscrimAffirmAct.

Dear list.
We have an open postdoc position at Argonne. And this is a really nice one which involves working with the team behind the DOE ACME climate model in the newly created Climate Model Development and Validation team.
In a nutshell the successful applicant will be using radar data from Darwin, Australia and Northern Oklahoma to build diagnostics to see how well the convective scheme in ACME performs when run an 10km and with mesoscale parameterization turned off. Thing like looking at precipitation coverage, mesoscale flow (we have dual doppler at Darwin) etc.. And, all being well (nothing is ever certain) while the postdoc is year to year the funding is three years so a good chance to get good outcomes. We are a Python house here so the successful applicant will be expected to know or be willing to learn python and will be expected to contribute open source code (to Py-ART or other).
Take a look: http://careers.peopleclick.com/careerscp/client_argonnelab/post_doc/en_US/gateway.do?functionName=viewFromLink&localeCode=en-us&jobPostId=4372&source=Twitter&sourceType=NETWORKING_SITE <http://careers.peopleclick.com/careerscp/client_argonnelab/post_doc/en_US/gateway.do?functionName=viewFromLink&localeCode=en-us&jobPostId=4372&source=Twitter&sourceType=NETWORKING_SITE>
And question give me a yell. I really want some one to start no later than the 1st of October 2016.
Please pass around!
Cheers,
Scott
