The Staff Associate will assist the NASA Research Scientist in the
following tasks:

   - Implement existing analysis scripts to the current GISS climate model,

   - Develop existing support programs/scripts for running climate model.
   - Implement small changes as appropriate related to I/O in climate model
   to improve water isotopologues.

The Staff Associate II will meet with the supervisor daily to discuss
research activities, results and outline next steps for the work. The Staff
Associate II will receive regular guidance and direction from his/her
supervisor but will be expected to exercise independent judgment carrying
