CEDAR email: Postdoctoral position

[Verkhoglyadova, Olga (335G)]

Job opening: postdoctoral position at the JPL/California Institute of Technology

From: Olga Verkhoglyadova (Olga.Verkhoglyadova at jpl.nasa.gov)

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology invites applications for a postdoctoral research position in JPL's Ionospheric and Atmospheric Remote Sensing group. The goal of the research project is to improve our understanding of dynamic driving of the Earth’s ionosphere-thermosphere system by the magnetosphere at different scales. This project is a component of a broader effort to study the global electrodynamics of ionospheric disturbances. The successful candidate will carry out satellite data analysis, estimation of dynamic drivers for the ionosphere-thermosphere system and model assessment.

Candidates should have a recent PhD in physics, plasma physics, space physics or related field. A strong background in space physics (especially in ionospheric or magnetospheric physics) and programming skills are required. Preference will be given to a candidate with a background in satellite data analysis of electromagnetic waves and particle fluxes, and digital signal processing.

Candidates who have received their PhD within the past five years since the date of their application are eligible. Postdoctoral positions are awarded for a minimum of one-year period and may be renewed up to a maximum duration of three years. Please, refer to  https://postdocs-jpl.icims.com/jobs/8990/impacts-of-dynamic-driving-on-the-ionosphere-thermosphere-system-at-different-scales/job?mode=view for additional information and the application procedure.
