samples of many different types during a three-month research
expedition. The "Delivering Added-value to Antarctica" (ACE-DATA)
project will generate new interdisciplinary knowledge about the Southern
Ocean and create a platform through which the ACE data will be made
publicly available. The focus of the project will be on air-sea
interactions and will deal specifically with a sub-set of these datasets
collected during the expedition. ACE-DATA is a joint project between
the Swiss Polar Institute, the Swiss Data Science Center, the Paul
Scherrer Institute and other ACE project members worldwide. ASAID will
investigate ocean-atmosphere interactions from ocean physics, chemistry
and productivity, meteorological variables and atmospheric gases and
aerosols, based on in situ measurements, satellite observations and
modeling results. <br><br>For the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition DATA project in the Aerosol Physics Group we are looking for a <br> <br><h1 class="gmail-Header"><font size="2">Postdoctoral Fellow</font></h1><b>Atmospheric Science / Oceanography</b><h3 class="gmail-yourprofile">Your tasks</h3>The
successful applicant will be working on the ACE-DATA project. The main
tasks include leading the ‘Antarctic Sea-Atmosphere Interactions Data’
(ASAID) sub-project and supporting the set-up of the ACE Database in
coordination with the respective work package leaders. Different
international research groups are involved with their datasets and
scientific support in this sub-project. This will require high level
coordination and communication skills of the candidate. Your main task
