Hi all,
The School of Geographical Sciences at the University of Bristol, UK
currently has available the following fully funded NERC studentship
(with additional CASE contribution of £1000 per year), starting
October 2017 (flexible):
"The evolution of Earth's ice sheets from 300 million years ago to the
future: implications for climate and life"
You will make use of recent advances in ice sheet and climate models to
explore the evolution of Earth's ice sheets from 300 million years ago to
the future. In particular, you will explore the relative roles that
changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide and paleogeography play in
controlling ice sheet evolution, and the associated mechanisms of
inception, growth, and decay of ice.
The successful student will be fully integrated into the NERC GW4+ DTP.
For more information on the project, see here:
http://www.paleo.bris.ac.uk/~ggdjl/phd/PhD_project_lunt_2017.pdf
This project comes with augmented research costs consisting of an
additional £1000 per year provided by the project CASE partner.

Postdoctoral Positions in Atmospheric Aerosol Modeling
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) invites applications for
postdoctoral positions to conduct research in the area of numerical
representation of atmospheric aerosol processes in ECCC's operational
air quality prediction model GEM-MACH (Global Environmental Multiscale -
Modelling Air quality and CHemistry). GEM-MACH is a fine to large scale
comprehensive meteorology-composition-chemistry model containing a full
description of atmospheric chemistry, aerosols and meteorological
processes. The selected candidates will join the air quality modeling
and research group at ECCC and contribute to the development of the next
generation aerosol module for GEM-MACH. The new aerosol module is driven
by the need to capture up-to-date advancements in the science, improve
air quality and climate predictions, develop a fully interactive
meteorology-composition-chemistry model and address aerosols related
outstanding science issues including aerosol-cloud-radiation interaction.
Candidates should hold Ph. D. in Atmospheric science or a related field.
In-depth knowledge and modeling experience in one or more atmospheric
aerosol process parameterizations and strong computer programming skills
are required. Air quality, climate or weather prediction numerical
modeling skills would be advantageous to the positions. An ideal
candidate will be a highly motivated, creative and independent researcher.
The postdoctoral positions are administered by Natural Sciences and
Engineering Research Council (NSERC) under the Visiting Fellowships in
Canadian Government Laboratories (VF) Program for Canadian government
research institutions. The fellowship offers attractive salary
(currently, $62,710/year), excellent work environment and opportunity to
work with research groups in Canadian government research institutions
to promising emerging scientists and engineers. NSERC-VF policy requires
that postdoctoral fellowship appointments be made to individuals who
have received their doctorate within the past five years. NSERC VF
postdoctoral fellowships can last up to three years.

*********************************************
Context: The fully coupled Earth system (ice sheets, climate, surface

The Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) and
University of Miami invites applications for a Postdoctoral Associate
position in Ocean and Atmosphere Modeling.
Goal: Develop and test a new paradigm linking extratropical atmospheric
circulations to the initiation and evolution of El Niño/Southern
Oscillation events.
Project description: We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral
research associate with a strong background in the numerical modeling of
large-scale ocean and atmosphere circulations to join an NSF-funded,
multi-institution research team investigating the initiation and
evolution of El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events. In particular,
the postdoctoral researcher will be responsible for designing,
conducting, and analyzing controlled numerical model experiments to test
a number of research hypotheses focused on the efficacy of extratropical
atmospheric forcing of ENSO events. This research will improve our
understanding of sources and limitations of ENSO predictability, and
lead to improved predictions of developing ENSO events. The successful
candidate will also have access to numerous career preparation
activities including collaboration with researchers in both academic and
cooperative (academic-federal) institutions, funding to attend national
and international conferences, and access to professional development
seminars and workshops for early-career researchers.
Qualifications: Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Physical Oceanography,
Atmospheric Science or a related field and a demonstrated
ability/interest in publishing results in the peer-reviewed literature.
Highly desirable qualifications include the ability to run ocean and
global coupled climate models. Prior experience with a commonly used
global coupled climate model, such as GFDL's coupled climate model or
NCAR's community earth system model, is also desirable but not required.
Knowledge of Unix, Fortran, and/or C+, along with good oral and written
communications skills, is also sought.
Applicants must apply online at <www.miami.edu/careers> (Position
#P100019270). The application should include a curriculum vitae, a cover
letter stating research interests, experience and the contact
information for three professional references. The selection processes
will begin on December 15, 2016 and the position will remain open until
filled. The starting date of the position is expected to be in March
2017, but is negotiable. The appointment will initially be for one year,
renewable for a second year depending on performance. Salary will be
commensurate with experience. Applicants may direct questions about the
position to Dr. Renellys C. Perez at <Renellys.C.Perez@noaa.gov>, Prof.
Bruce T. Anderson at <brucea@bu.edu>, or Prof. Benjamin Giese
(<b-giese@tamu.edu>).

Projects with a climate theme are available with lead supervisors in the
departments of Archaeology and Anthropology, Chemistry, DAMTP (Maths),
Earth Sciences, Geography, SPRI (polar) and at the British Antarctic Survey.
You can find projects with a particular supervisor or keyword using the
searchable list (<http://essdtp.esc.cam.ac.uk/programme/project-list>)
Although the NERC funding is only available to UK/EU students (see
funding pages to understand the different categories), other sources of
funds may be available. Whatever your funding status, if you are

in boundary layer meteorology including preferably the application of
eddy covariance (EC) to research of surface – atmosphere energy
exchanges. Previous field experience in alpine areas would be an
advantage. Students with excellent data coding/programming/"big-data"

applied to analysis of EC and DTS datasets will be favourably
considered. Applicants should be a team player with a strong
professional work ethic. Applicants should have excellent communication
skills in terms of both written and spoken English Language expression.

Dear colleagues,
I would like to advertise this job opening in "Trait-based Ecosystem Modelling" here in our marine ecosystem modelling research group headed by Kai Wirtz (kai.wirtz@hzg.de). Primary objective of the position is to investigate stress responses in plankton dynamics including relevant traits such as cell size, and their feed-backs to ecosystem functions for relevant habitat types, also as part of the 'Biological Impacts of Ocean Acidification' (BIOACID, www.bioacid.de) project.
Please forward this to interested colleagues and potential applicants.
Thanks,
Carsten
