Hi,
Through the NERC GW4+ DTP there are two PhD projects being offered by British Antarctic Survey and University of Bath starting in October 2017 that may be of interest:
At British Antarctic Survey:
Antarctic atmospheric waves and tides and their impact on global circulation (http://nercgw4plus.ac.uk/project/antarctic-atmospheric-waves-and-tides-and-their-impact-on-global-circulation/ )
At University of Bath:
Atmospheric Waves from Antarctic Mountains, Islands and Oceans to the Edge of Space (http://nercgw4plus.ac.uk/project/atmospheric-waves-from-antarctic-mountains-islands-and-oceans-to-the-edge-of-space/ )
These projects are open to applications from UK and other EU students (full details can be found here: http://nercgw4plus.ac.uk/phd-projects/2017-projects/ ).
If you are interested in the projects above please feel free to contact the lead supervisor for more information. The application deadline is 6th January 2017.
Many thanks,
Tracy

Research Associate position in oceanography, researching sea level variations (vacancy ref. ACAD102130)
Bristol Glaciology Centre
University of Bristol
The primary aim of this project is to determine the factors influencing sea level rise, including glacio-isostatic adjustment, during the satellite era and eventually, for the 20th Century by combining a range of satellite and ground-based observations within a statistical inference model.
This post requires a background in physical oceanography. You should, ideally, have experience in the analysis and interpretation of sea level data such as tide gauge records or satellite altimetry or a background in thermosteric and/or ocean heat budget studies. You must have good programming skills. Some experience of numerical modelling would be advantageous. This post is part of a European Research Council grant that includes four other positions tackling different aspects of the sea level budget.
You may be appointed either on a fixed-term or a permanent contract, depending on the extent of your previous relevant research experience. The funding for the post is up to 48 months.
Interviews are likely to be held in the week commencing 21st Nov and the expected start date is early 2017. Informal enquires are welcome.
Grade : Level a in Pathway 2
Salary : £31,656-35,609

The Natural Environment Research Council and the University of Edinburgh School of GeoSciences operate the FSF to support the environmental science community in the UK in generating excellence research. We seek a new team member to join the facility, tasked with maintaining its day to day operations. You will deal with user enquiries, manage loans of equipment, support and maintain the facility database, train users in equipment operations, and track the performance of the facility.
We seek applicants with knowledge in a relevant field and experience in spectroscopy, and administration. You will work closely with the Facility Director, the Facility Equipment Manager, members of the Facility Science Steering Committee, and the UK National Centre for Earth Observation. There is a strong potential for job extension past the end date, and for developing more links to spectroscopic research over time, with career development.
