[ES_JOBS_NET] Post-Doctoral Researcher in Climate Extremes, Uppsala University

[Gabriele Messori]

We invite applications for a post-doctoral researcher in climate dynamics
at the *Department of Earth Sciences of Uppsala University*. This positon
provides funding for 2 years, with the possibility for outstanding
candidates to progress to a research scientist position after this.



The focus will be on characterising the large-scale drivers and improve the
prediction of mid-latitude weather extremes by combining the study of
atmospheric dynamics with a statistical/mathematical approach.



*The exact focus of the research is flexible, providing a unique
opportunity for the candidate to develop his/her own original ideas.*



Possible topics may include – but are not limited to – the identification
of recurring planetary wave-breaking patterns linked to regional extremes,
the use of dynamical systems theory to characterise the predictability of
instantaneous atmospheric states, the use of idealised models to study the
co-occurrence of geographically remote extreme weather events. The postdoc
will also have the opportunity to engage in teaching/supervising duties.



For full details and to apply:

The *dealine for applications is the 11th November*, with a start date in
January 2019 or later.



You are welcome to contact Dr. Gabriele Messori (gabriele.messori at geo.uu.se)
with any questions.
