Job Description
<p class="MsoNormal">The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
(PNNL) seeks a postdoctoral researcher for research related to
regional and global modeling with a focus on aerosol processes and
their interaction with clouds. The selected candidate is expected
to participate in the development of a framework for an aerosol
subgrid variability scheme to reduce scale-induced uncertainty in
simulating aerosols and their radiative forcing in GCMs. The
successful candidate will also have the opportunity to work with a
group of recognized scientists to quantify the uncertainty and
sensitivity in aerosol-cloud interactions in climate model.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Minimum Requirements </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Candidates must have received a PhD within the
past five years from an accredited college or university.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Qualifications </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A PhD in Atmospheric Sciences, Meteorology, or
related fields is required. Candidates with experience in (1)
regional or global climate modeling; (2) aerosol microphysical
processes; (3) fluency in FORTRAN; and (4) fluency with LINUX
operating system and parallel programming paradigms on
high-performance computers are strongly preferred. Because visible
scientific accomplishments are key to the success of our project
team, the candidate must have demonstrated excellent communication
skills as evidenced by publications in peer-reviewed journals and
presentations at professional conferences. Proactive and timely
publication is an essential requirement. A cover letter describing
applicants’ research experience and interests, and a curriculum
vitae with a list of publications in referenced journals is
required.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">About Tri-Cities </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.visittri-cities.com/"

<p class="MsoNormal">The Tri-Cities started out with 3 main
communities: Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland - but the phenomenal
growth of neighboring West Richland has made the area more of a
"Quad-City". Located just hours from Seattle, WA and Portland, OR,
the area is embraced by the beauty of a desert landscape and
connected by the Columbia, Snake, and Yakima rivers. The
Tri-Cities offers a multitude of recreational, cultural, and
historical activities and is a great place to visit and live.
We're known for our premier golf courses, award-winning wineries,
unique shopping, and abundant outdoor and water recreation. Visit
the link above to learn more about the various communities. PNNL
is located in Richland, WA.</p>
