[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoctoral opening at Princeton University/GFDL

[Sonya Legg]

In collaboration with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory 
(GFDL), the Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton 
University solicits applications to its Postdoctoral, Research and 
Visiting Research Scientist Program.

The AOS Program and GFDL offer a stimulating environment with 
significant computational and intellectual resources in which to conduct 
collaborative or independent research. We primarily seek applications 
from recent Ph.D.s for postdoctoral positions but will accept 
applications from more experienced researchers. Applications from 
independent researchers and more senior scientists who may need partial 
support for sabbatical or short visits may also be considered. 
Postdoctoral appointments are initially for one year with the 
possibility of renewal for a second year based on satisfactory 
performance and continued funding. A competitive salary is offered 
commensurate with experience and qualifications.

We seek applications in all areas of the climate sciences. This includes 
research in basic processes in atmospheric and oceanic dynamics; climate 
dynamics, variability and prediction; atmospheric physics and chemistry; 
cloud dynamics and convection; boundary layer processes; land-sea-ice 
dynamics; continental hydrology and land processes; physical 
oceanography; ocean-atmosphere interaction; climate diagnostics and 
analysis. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in a relevant discipline by the 
time their appointment starts.

Further information about the Program may be obtained from: 
http://www.princeton.edu/aos/. Applicants are encouraged to contact GFDL 
and Princeton University scientists prior to application.

Complete applications, including a CV, copies of recent publications, 
names and contact information for at least 3 references in order to 
solicit letters of recommendation, and a titled (about three page) 
research proposal should be submitted by April 15, 2014 for full 
consideration. Applicants should apply online to 
http://jobs.princeton.edu, Requisition #1400146. This position is 
subject to the University’s background check policy. Princeton 
University is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants 
will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, 
religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran 
status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
