PhD position in Atmospheric Modelling at the IGMK – University of
Cologne, Germany
<br>
<br>
The Atmospheric Modelling group (Prof. Yaping Shao) at the
Institute for Geophysics and Meteorology at the University of
Cologne (Germany) is offering a PhD position for 3 years starting
in Fall 2016, within the Collaborative Research Center SFB1211
“Earth – Evolution at the Dry Limit”. The project title is
“Development of an Aeolian-Biogenic model”.
<br>
<br>
We offer a productive and interdisciplinary working atmosphere
including several possibilities for career development. The salary
is based on the German E13 TV-L scale (75% time position) if terms
and conditions under collective bargaining law are fulfilled.
<br>
<br>
Job description: The doctoral candidate will develop a module for
quantifying the aeolian-biogenic interactions. Of particular
importance is to quantify the strength and thickness of the
biogenic crust, and to derive adequate parameterizations of these
quantities as a function of environmental control parameters. At
the same time the inhibition of aeolian erosion by the presence of
crusts, as well as the effects of dust erosion and deposition on
the formation of crusts will be considered. All these ingredients
will be cast in a set of partial differential equations. The
simulations will be extensively compared against observations from
the literature and from the field and remote sensing campaigns
within SFB 1211.
<br>
<br>
Requirements: We expect strong interest in atmospheric science
with specialization in atmospheric and surface modeling.
Applicants should have a Master-of-Science-equivalent university
degree in meteorology, geophysics, physics or mathematics.
Experience in scientific programming, preferably in a UNIX/LINUX
environment, and knowledge in computational modelling is highly
desirable. Candidates must possess excellent communication skills
both in written and spoken English.
<br>
<br>
Applications: Interested candidates should send a CV; a cover
letter describing background, training and research interests;
certificates; and the contact information of two referees as a
single PDF to meteo-jobs@uni‐koeln.de. Please clearly indicate
which position you apply for. Review of
<br>
applications will begin immediately and continue until September
30, 2016.

<br>
Postdoc position in Atmospheric Modelling at the IGMK – University
of Cologne, Germany
<br>
<br>
The Atmospheric Modelling group (Prof. Yaping Shao) at the
Institute for Geophysics and Meteorology at the University of
Cologne (Germany) is offering a Postdoc position for 4 years
starting in Summer/Fall 2016, within the Collaborative Research
Center SFB1211 “Earth – Evolution at the Dry Limit”. The project
title is “Development and application of a Statistic-Dynamic
Aeolian-Biogenic Model”.
<br>
<br>
We offer a productive and interdisciplinary working atmosphere
including several possibilities for career development. The salary
is based on the German E13 TV-L scale if terms and conditions
under collective bargaining law are fulfilled.
<br>
<br>
Job description: The postdoc will perform high-resolution
atmospheric simulations over the Atacama with the Weather Research
and Forecast (WRF) regional model for present-day and paleoclimate
conditions. Those simulations will be integrated within a
Statistic-Dynamic Aeolian-Biogenic Model (SDABM). The dynamical
core will consist of existing atmospheric and aeolian modules, as
well as a new biogenic module to be developed in parallel within
our research group. The statistical component consists in the
identification of climate modes and frequency via Empirical
Orthogonal Functions, the dynamic core simulations for each
climate mode, and the recombination of modes to determine the
climatologies. The simulations will be extensively compared
against modern and paleoclimate data from the literature and from
the field and remote sensing campaigns within SFB 1211.
<br>
<br>
Requirements: We expect strong interest in atmospheric science
with specialization in global/regional
<br>
modelling of the atmosphere. Applicants should have a
Master-of-Science-equivalent university degree in meteorology,
geophysics, physics or mathematics and preferably hold a PhD
degree. Experience in scientific programming, preferably in a
UNIX/LINUX environment, and knowledge in computational modelling
is highly desirable. Candidates must possess excellent
communication skills both in written and spoken English.
<br>
<br>
Applications: Interested candidates should send a CV; a cover
letter describing background, training and research interests;
certificates; and the contact information of two referees as a
single PDF to meteo-jobs@uni‐koeln.de. Please clearly indicate
which position you apply for. Review of
<br>
applications will begin immediately and continue until August 15,
2016. The selected
<br>
candidate is expected to start as soon as possible.
