[ES_JOBS_NET] Post-doc position in coupled-climate carbon cycle modelling, Vancouver

[KirstenZickfeld]

*Postdoc Position in Coupled Climate-Carbon Cycle Modelling*

The Climate Research Lab in the Department of Geography at Simon Fraser 
University, led by Dr. Kirsten Zickfeld, invites applications for a 
postdoctoral position in coupled-climate carbon cycle modelling. Simon 
Fraser University is located in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, 
Canada, a vibrant metropolitan area situated in a spectacular natural 
setting of ocean and mountains.

The successful candidate will join a dynamic group with expertise in 
Earth system modelling, climate dynamics and climate-carbon cycle 
interactions on decadal to centennial timescales. The focus of the 
research will be in one of the following areas: 1) Reversibility of 
climate changes in “overshoot” scenarios, i.e. scenarios that 
temporarily exceed a given temperature limit, 2) Earth system response 
to artificial removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, 3) Carbon 
budgets consistent with limiting warming to the temperature limits set 
by the Paris Agreement (1.5°C and 2°C warming above pre-industrial). 
Research questions will be addressed using an Earth System Modelling 
framework, e.g. the UVic Earth System Climate Model run in house, and/or 
climate model archives such as the Climate Modelling Intercomparison 
Project Phase 6 (CMIP6).

Funding is available for one year, with possibility of renewal for one 
additional year. The preferred start date is 1^st October 2019.

Evaluation of applications will start on 5 August 2019 and will continue 
until the position is filled.
