Postdoctoral Research Associate Position
University of Washington, Seattle, WA
The Joint Institute for the Study of the Atmosphere and Ocean (JISAO) at
the University of Washington is seeking a Postdoctoral Research
Associate (job class code 0148) in the area of atmospheric modeling on
the LES or regional modeling scale. JISAO fosters collaborative research
and education between the University of Washington and NOAA, as well as
with other major organizations throughout the U.S.
Research is currently underway at the University of Washington to
explore the feasibility of marine cloud brightening as a means of
cooling Earth's climate. Current research topics include techniques to
generate fine aerosol salt particles, aerosol-cloud interactions at the
LES scale including both models and field experiments, possible links to
regional scale circulations, and implications of climate engineering for
global-scale climate. We are seeking a post-doc with experience in
numerical modeling of atmospheric processes, particularly in the areas
of aerosol physics, cloud physics and aerosol-cloud interactions, to
engage in modeling in support of this research program. Priority will be
given to applicants in the areas of aerosol-cloud interactions at the
LES scale or at the scale of regional cloud-resolving models, but
applicants interested in the global scale will also be considered. The
research will be in collaboration with Professors Tom Ackerman
(tpa2@uw.edu) and Rob Wood (robwood2@uw.edu) and Affiliate Professor
Phil Rasch (Philip.Rasch@pnnl.gov). Questions regarding the position may
be addressed to any one of them.
This is a 12-month, full-time (100% FTE) appointment, renewable for a
second year, subject to approval, satisfactory performance, and
availability of funding. Applicants are asked to submit electronically
(in PDF): (1) a curriculum vita; (2) a cover letter including a
statement of interest in the climate engineering problem; (3) a
description of potential research to be pursued during a two-year tenure
at the University of Washington (limited to 4 pages including figures
and references), and (4) the names and contact information of three
individuals who can serve as references. Manuscripts that have been
submitted to peer-reviewed journals but not yet published may be
attached if they are relevant to the research topic. Applicants must
provide proof of the Ph. D. conferral and be within 6 years of receipt
of the PhD. Applicants who expect to receive a Ph. D. in the first
quarter of 2017 will be considered.
Applications should be received by January 20, 2017; applications
received after that date may be considered. Applicants are expected to
be available to assume the post-doc position no later than May 1, 2017.
Applications should be sent to: Collen Marquist, Assistant to the
Director, (marquist@uw.edu).
The University of Washington and JISAO promote diversity and inclusivity
among our faculty and staff, and seek candidates who are able to fully
engage audiences from a wide spectrum of backgrounds. University of
Washington is an affirmative action and equal opportunity employer. All
qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without
regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender
identity, gender expression, national origin, age, protected veteran or
disabled status, or genetic information. Individuals with disabilities
desiring accommodations in the application process should notify Mary
Smith, JISAO, 206-543-5216 or mchsmith@uw.edu.
