[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoc Position @ Princeton / GFDL: Sea Level Rise

John Krasting - NOAA Federal john.krasting at noaa.gov
Wed Apr 7 06:01:14 MDT 2021


We have a postdoc position open at NOAA-GFDL / Princeton to explore
differences in sea level rise projections across model resolutions and
model generations developed at GFDL. This is an exciting opportunity to
engage with scientists at GFDL and Princeton as well as at NOAA’s Center
for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS).

Please checkout the official announcement for more details and to apply.
Feel free to reach out to me at John.Krasting at noaa.gov with questions or
for more information.

The Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University, in
association with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) and
Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS), seeks
a postdoctoral or more senior researchers to conduct research on decadal to
centennial scale sea level rise. The overall goal of the project is to
contextualize projections of sea level rise from the latest generation of
coupled global climate models developed at NOAA-GFDL against previous
generation simulations. The research at Princeton University/GFDL will
focus on potential areas that include the role of different model
horizontal resolutions, differences among climate forcing scenarios, ocean
heat uptake and exchange between the upper ocean and deep ocean, and global
climate sensitivity to greenhouse gas forcing. The research will require
analysis and interpretation of model output, management of large datasets,
and the development of mean-state and process-level model diagnostics of
sea level rise.  The postdoc will be expected to collaborate with
researchers at Princeton, GFDL, and CO-OPS.

In addition to a quantitative background, the selected candidates will
ideally have one or more of the following attributes: a) a strong
background in physical oceanography, sea level rise dynamics, ocean heat
uptake, or a closely related field, b) demonstrated experience in
conducting analysis of ocean-only and coupled climate model output, and c)
experience in ocean model development or conducting model simulations.

Candidates must have a Ph.D. and preferably in Oceanography, or a closely
related field. The initial appointment is for one year with the possibility
of a second-year renewal subject to satisfactory performance and available
funding.

Complete applications, including a cover letter, CV, publication list,
research statement (no more than 2 pages incl. references), and 3 letters
of recommendation should be submitted by May 1, 2021, 11:59 pm EST for full
consideration.   Princeton is interested in candidates who, through their
research, will contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic
community. Applicants should apply online to
https://www.princeton.edu/acad-positions/position/19943.  For additional
information about the project contact Dr. John Krasting (
John.Krasting at noaa.gov).

This position is subject to Princeton University's background check policy.

Princeton University is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer
