Postdoctoral research scientist position: Data assimilation for coupled
systems

 

Department of Mathematics, University of Reading, U.K.

 

As part of the new U.K. National Centre for Earth Observation we are seeking
an excellent research scientist to develop new mathematical methods for
incorporating observational data into multi-scale numerical models.

 

Using variational methods, scientific computation and numerical
optimization, you will develop new techniques for the assimilation of data
into models of coupled environmental systems. You will demonstrate the
usefulness of these new techniques by applying them to numerical models of
the coupled atmosphere-ocean system.

 

This is a fixed-term position for 3 years. The starting salary is in the
range £25,888 to £33,780 per annum.
