[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoctoral Research Scientist - Hydroclimate & Vegetation Modeling at LDEO

[Aileen Goldberg]

*Postdoctoral Position in Hydroclimate and Vegetation Modeling, 
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University*

The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University invites 
applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Hydroclimate and 
Vegetation Modeling. The successful candidate will design and implement 
research within a highly collaborative group on a newly funded DOE 
project that aims to elucidate how vegetation shapes the characteristics 
of droughts globally. Candidates should have a PhD in land-atmosphere 
interactions, hydrology, ecohydrology, climate dynamics, or related 
fields, preferably with experience in dynamic vegetation and/or 
hydrological modeling. Along with a keen interest in large-scale 
hydroclimate and its social impacts, the candidate should have the 
ability to analyze and manipulate large, distributed ecological, 
meteorological and climate datasets in a Linux-based computing system, 
as well as familiarity with Earth system modeling (particularly of the 
land surface), the coordinated experiments performed with such models, 
as well as their output. The position will be based at the 
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory campus in Palisades, NY in the research 
groups of Jason Smerdon and Richard Seager, but is part of a large, 
inclusive, and collaborative group working on related problems at 
Dartmouth College (Justin Mankin), the University of California, Los 
Angeles, (Park Williams), and the NASA Goddard Institute for Space 
Studies (Kate Marvel and Benjamin Cook).

The appointment will be for 1 year, with an expected second-year 
continuation, contingent on progress and funding.

The search will remain open for at least 30 days after the ad appears 
and will continue until the position is filled.
