Researcher/Scientific Programmer
The Norwegian Meteorological Institute has an open position for a
Researcher/Scientific programmer. The position is affiliated with the
Ocean and Ice Division, Research and Development Department in Oslo. The
Ocean and Ice Division has a strong responsibility in developing and
operating numerical models for forecasting of ocean currents, sea level,
waves and sea-ice. Furthermore, numerical models for forecasting
environmental elements such as oil drift, iceberg, nutrient salts, and
biomass are developed and operated. The work is carried out in
collaboration with national and international partners and is largely
funded externally. See http://met.no/Hav_og_is/ for more information.
The vacant position is related to the operation, development and
maintenance of operational Arctic ocean models for the Copernicus Arctic
Marine Forecasting Center (ARC-MFC). In ARC-MFC, MET Norway, the Nansen
Center and the Institute for Marine Research have the responsibility for
Arctic monitoring and forecasting as part of the European Copernicus Marine
Environment Monitoring Service. This is an operational service and
forecasts and analysis can be viewed and retrieved daily from:
http://marine.copernicus.eu/. The new employee will be part of the ARC-MFC
team and will work on the operationalization of model upgrades and on new
development within the ARC-MFC model system. It requires good technical and
scientific skills, as well as, the ability to work within a
inter-institutional collaboration.
The position is for two years, but with the possibility of an extension and
becoming a permanent position.
Required qualifications
- higher education in geophysics, applied mathematics or equivalent
- experience in numerical geophysical modeling
- experience and proven knowledge in applied mathematical/scientific
programming within the Linux environment
- experience in software development in Fortran
- good English skills
- both, good interpersonal skills and ability to work independently.
Other qualifications
- experience in working with operational systems
- experience in script programming
- Working conditions
- salary on the governmental salary scales dependent on qualifications
and experience

Risk Management Solutions (RMS) is the world's leading provider of mathematical models and information related to the financial impact of natural catastrophes. We have a team of fifty PhD scientists and engineers based in London building mathematical models that predict the distributions of possible damage due to the effects of tropical storms, extra-tropical storms, thunderstorms, storm-surges, freshwater floods and tsunamis. We use a combination of observed data, reanalysis data, numerical, statistical and engineering models and data assimilation. We are the pioneers in the development and application of complex statistical and numerical modelling methods for the quantification of natural hazard risk, and our risk models are the most detailed and comprehensive models of natural catastrophes produced anywhere in the world. Our clients include several hundred insurance and reinsurance companies as well as brokers, banks, hedge funds, regional and local governments, and multilateral agencies.
RMS is currently trying to fill a role related to the modelling of storm-surge, waves, overtopping and coastal flooding in various parts of the world. Ideal candidates would have a PhD or research experience related to storm-surge or other aspects of coastal ocean modelling. Strong candidates with a different but equivalent profile may also be considered. Previous experience in catastrophe modeling is not necessary.
If you are interested, please send an email, with a covering letter and CV, to london.recruiting@rms.com<mailto:london.recruiting@rms.com>. Appropriate candidates will be invited for interview in London.
Many thanks,
Shree

Dear colleagues,
your help in distributing this ad to potential candidates would be much appreciated:
NEON Science - Instrumented Systems currently has two PostDoc openings; one on storage flux determination (announced earlier<https://workforcenow.adp.com/jobs/apply/posting.html?client=90c&ccId=19000101_000001&type=MP&lang=en_US>), and one on flux uncertainty budgeting (below).
The incumbents will be key members of NEON's eddy-covariance team, with focus on innovative and efficient algorithmic solutions.
Specifically, the work will entail authoring modular, publicly accessible and extensible R-packages, alongside their documentation and publication in the scientific literature. These packages will be part of NEON's operational data processing across 47 eddy-covariance sites.
Please see below for details.
Thanks - Stefan.

The successful candidate will be working with the terrestrial IS team, which develops data products for an automated suite of meteorological, atmospheric, soil and ecophysiological measurements. The IS Postdoctoral Micrometeorologist (Flux uncertainty) will implement a crucial portion of the NEON eddy-covariance design, directly contributing to making NEON's flux measurements part of a world-class observatory through state-of-the-art techniques.
A complete job description is attached to this email. If you know anyone with similar qualifications, you are encouraged to inform them about this opportunity.
NEON employees interested in applying need to do so by logging into ADP selecting the "Myself" tab, Talent, then Career Center, which will bring up all NEON's job postings, select the Requisition #1837 and apply by Friday, September 30, 2016.

[Sorry for cross-postings]
Dear all,
A 30-month (15+15) postdoctoral position is available in Grenoble, France to work on the joint analysis of a large ensemble of ocean simulations and of oceanic observations. The main objectives are to analyze the structures and observational imprints of the forced and intrinsic ocean variabilities, to guide the climate-oriented interpretation of observations, and to improve the design of observational arrays.
The subject and the ways to apply are presented in the attached document (also here <http://lgge.osug.fr/meom/Annonces/postdoc_ATLANTOS.pdf>)
Thanks in advance for forwarding this announcement to potentially interested postdoctoral researchers.
Thierry
