biogeochemical and hydrological processes and their climate interactions, with a focus on Earth System Models (ESMs). The position offers an excellent environment for working with a highly skilled interdisciplinary team and will require strong motivation and
excellent oral and written communication skills. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is a renowned center of scientific expertise in many facets of climate-related fundamental and applied science. The postdoctoral researcher will also have opportunities
to collaborate with researchers across our multi-institution DOE-funded project (<a href="http://secure-web.cisco.com/1vcF-kOUXgB3GuprihG4RnyX20lZPFUAoNqFAGr8zMoINht9JrqedVmX5fccK31i4cfr1MUqMICuVn919EW39benA5G1JkD2ha-THx26M4qxy_4Azuq1CL48lJ9Qd1mhRJQ6dUxsefLnrG7jihhHDCgMex4I4HX2K8k-ivgxLKmgoq_Qe7cpefEvxPaJNkHmhD3P4IRtM7qRrs3BsAY24hMrvm2IaaeQbtSuO5rmio74Q0xviajsLyX0y2meEgDEwzWI3wK2b-VuDa2NyoHzXpWsWxx5HtDiXmBe3m0lhq1RF4vEPP95M-WYfaN7jl2H0hBPyGyW900vUAKfdR4rSuiqqXwuTFXhdRUQo7K7m1CHdshB5iYNpnevmvXE3amCGEOm1HywziJMc-3bKdZ8odOqh6j8f2jkxWtFPSto4oJgjZh-pDp8cRiwWAP5bXQwsFzUYLAScuxCfoarrEaAKGQ/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bgc-feedbacks.org%2F">http://www.bgc-feedbacks.org/</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
