Hi there,
Four vacancies available for Research Scientists/Specialists at the National
Center of Meteorology (NCM) <https://www.linkedin.com/feed/>. Please review
carefully the following eligibility requirements listed per vacancy. If you
meet the requirements, please send a 2-page resume and cover letter to Dr.
Taha Al Hosari (TAlhosary at ncms.ae)
*1) NWP Research Scientist*
- Expertise in compiling, running and post-processing with the Weather
Research and Forecast (WRF) model and its extension packages, specifically,
WRF-CHEM and WRF-HYDRO.
- Experience in atmospheric science in different research areas including
mesoscale convective systems and microscale meteorology over complex ter
rain and land surfaces.
- Competent in cross-scale model setups and verification (microscale,
mesoscale, synoptic, macroscale and regional scale) in uncoupled and
coupled modes (e.g. ocean, land, and chemistry) using a variety of physics
options and parametrizations.
- Experience in Scientific Optimization and Refinement of operational
NWP models, by utilizing the model verification statistics and testing
different physical parameterizations.
- Experience in various data assimilation (DA) methods (RTFDDA, 3DVAR,
4DVAR and hybrid EnVar ) includes mesoscale DA and source code tweaking
to run hypothetical scenarios (e.g. land cover changes, artificial water
bodies and surface heat sources, etc.).
- Must have experience in processing a wide range of satellite/radar
remote sensing products for earth and hydro-meteorological applications –
knowledge of relevant AI/machine learning applications is desirable.
- Knowledge on direct numerical simulations (DNS) to model cloud
microphysical processes and the analyses of measurements from in-situ
aircraft observations and/or cloud chamber experiments is desirable.
- Working knowledge of the "PlanetWRF" model (https://planetwrf.com/)
and basic knowledge of space weather applications is a big plus to develop
this role further.
- Must have a publication record in Q1-ranked journals, led/participated
in externally funded research projects, and experience/readiness to mentor
early-career researchers.
- Must have a PhD degree in Atmospheric Science, Environmental
Engineering, or a closely related field.
- Optimization of code compilation on High Performance Computer (HPC)
for parallel processing.
- Programming languages (Shell scripting, Python, Fortran,) and file
format (NetCDF, GRIB2)
*2) Machine Learning Scientist*
- Expertise in AI model frameworks, specifically in machine learning and
deep learning applications – e.g. TensorFlow, PyTorch,
Recurrent/Convolutional Neural Networks, Long Short-Term Memory algorithms,
etc. – GIS and mapping, advanced 3D visualization, inverse modeling, and
optimization.
- Must have experience in big data processing and visualization,
specifically for satellite/radar remote sensing and model reanalysis output
for earth and hydro-meteorological observation (e.g. GPM, MODIS, SMAP, GFS,
ECMWF, HYSPLIT etc.).
- Experience with Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), CubeSat and UAV senor
data is also desirable.
- Must have a publication record in Q1-ranked journals, led/participated
in externally funded research projects, and experience/readiness to mentor
early-career researchers.
- Must have a PhD degree in Atmospheric Science, Computer/Data Science,
Artificial Intelligence, or a closely related field.
