</span></b><span style="color:black"><br>
The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University
invites
applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist position on
the subject of
tropical rain belts. The successful candidate will work on a NSF
funded project
to evaluate, use and further develop the TRACMIP climate model
ensemble to
elucidate the dynamics of tropical rain belts, their seasonal
evolution and
their response to climate change. TRACMIP aims to bring into
clear definition
the essential similarities and differences in the oceanic ITCZ
and the land
monsoons through a hierarchy of idealized model setups and to
identify
mechanisms that are robust across a range of simplifications.<br>
<br>
The position will be located at the Lamont-Doherty Earth
Observatory in
Palisades, NY in the research group of Professor Michela
Biasutti and will be
in collaboration with Dr. Aiko Voigt from Karlsruhe Institute of
Technology,
Germany, and Prof. Jack Scheff from University of North Carolina
in Charlotte.<br>
<br>
The successful candidate will have a PhD in atmospheric or
climate science. A
background in tropical dynamics and experience in analyzing
large multi-model
datasets are a plus. Excellent skills in scientific writing in
English, a
strong motivation and ability to carry out research
independently as well as in
a team, and the ability to effectively communicate the results
within the
project and to outside colleagues through publications and
conference presentations
are preferred. <br>
<br>
The appointment is anticipated for spring 2018 and will be for 1
year, with
continuation<span> </span>pending on
funding and progress.
Postdocs are limited to a total of five years of combined
experience, with no
more than three years with Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory.<br>
