The new hire will conduct research related to testing and evaluation (T&E) of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. The JNT is host to the Developmental Testbed Center (DTC), which is responsible for accelerating the transition of research innovations into operations. JNT and DTC are also responsible for developing and supporting the enhanced Model Evaluation Tools (METplus), which is a suite of verification tools used to statistically evaluate the output of NWP models. This work will include providing statistical support for both T&E and METplus software development activities. It will also include collaboration with external stakeholders to identify their verification needs and work with them to adopt METplus. The successful candidate will work with a research team at NCAR dedicated to improving and understanding NWP model performance, and will interact with model development partners at NCAR, NOAA, and in the broader weather-water-climate community to provide statistically robust verification capabilities for the community.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal
