<h2>Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program</h2>
<h3>Postdoctoral Research Associate in Understanding
Cryosphere-Aerosol Interactions Over High Mountain
Asia</h3>
</div>
<br>
<div id="text">The Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences
Program at Princeton University, in association with
NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL),
seeks a postdoctoral or more senior candidate for
research related to how cryosphere-aerosol
interactions affect hydroclimate variability over High
Mountain Asia. A key focus will require comparing
observations and high-resolution global climate model
output to understand hydroclimate variability over
High Mountain Asia with a particular emphasis on the
cryosphere-aerosol interactions and related processes.
This will include an assessment of presently available
and future developmental satellite-based data products
and other regional observational or model-based
reanalyses. This will also include an assessment of
aerosol-climate interactions in the region and
targeted analysis to better understand how aerosol
deposition and its variability may affect regional
hydroclimate in both the historical record and the
future. The research will also examine how the
cryosphere and hydroclimate respond to natural
variability and radiative forcing changes over the
next 100 years. This position will provide the
opportunity for collaboration within GFDL and
Princeton University, as well as with members of the
NASA High Mountain Asia Team at various institutions.
Travel to meet with collaborators will be encouraged,
but not required.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
<br>
The selected candidate will have one or more of the
following attributes: (a) a strong background in
hydroclimate, climate dynamics, snow hydrology,
cryosphere science, or a closely related field; (b)
experience using and analyzing advanced climate models
and observational datasets (including remote sensing
data); (c) strong diagnostic skills in analyzing large
data sets.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
<br>
Candidate must have a PhD. Initial appointment is for
one year with the possibility of renewal subject to
satisfactory performance and available funding.<span

Complete applications, including a CV, publication
list, at least 3 letters of recommendation, and a
short statement of research interests should be
submitted by<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>December
