Conducts research on the representation of marine ecosystems
and biogeochemical cycles in the Community Earth System Model
(CESM). Identifies key science questions of interest regarding
the representation of the lower trophic levels of marine
ecosystems and their impact on biogeochemical cycles. Designs
and implements parameterizations of ecosystem processes in
CESM.</p>

with a team of NCAR and DOE scientists to improve and
modularize the marine biogeochemistry component of the
Community Earth System Model (CESM). The overarching
objectives are to provide robust predications of marine
ecosystem dynamics in the context of climate variability and
change. Furthermore, the project seeks to enable ecosystem
models spanning a range of complexity, including those
suitable for high-resolution physical frameworks. The
postdoctoral researcher will conduct research on the
representation of marine ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles
in CESM. The individual will have the freedom to identify and
focus on topics of their own interest within the context of
the broader project. Areas of particular interest include food
web dynamics, the microbial loop, phytoplankton
ecology/physiology, nutrient utilization ratios, mechanisms
controlling export production, and scale-dependence of
physical-biological interactions. The postdoctoral researcher
will have access to the high performance computing environment
at NCAR, and will work with DOE collaborators at Los Alamos
National Laboratory.</p>
