Job Description

The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) seeks a postdoctoral
researcher for research related to regional and global modeling with a
focus on aerosol processes and their interaction with clouds. The selected
candidate is expected to participate in the development of a framework for
an aerosol subgrid variability scheme to reduce scale-induced uncertainty
in simulating aerosols and their radiative forcing in GCMs. The successful
candidate will also have the opportunity to work with a group of recognized
scientists to quantify the uncertainty and sensitivity in aerosol-cloud
interactions in climate model.



Minimum Requirements

Candidates must have received a PhD within the past five years from an
accredited college or university.

 Qualifications

A PhD in Atmospheric Sciences, Meteorology, or related fields is required.
Candidates with experience in (1) regional or global climate modeling; (2)
aerosol microphysical processes; (3) fluency in FORTRAN; and (4) fluency
with LINUX operating system and parallel programming paradigms on
high-performance computers are strongly preferred. Because visible
scientific accomplishments are key to the success of our project team, the
candidate must have demonstrated excellent communication skills as
evidenced by publications in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at
professional conferences. Proactive and timely publication is an essential
requirement. A cover letter describing applicants’ research experience and
interests, and a curriculum vitae with a list of publications in referenced
journals is required.
