We encourage anyone who is interested in this opportunity to apply. We seek dedicated people who believe they have the skills and ambition to succeed at NREL to apply for this role. Job Description The National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL's) Strategic Energy Analysis Center (SEAC; www.nrel.gov/analysis) is seeking a Post-doctoral researcher with strong programming experience who can, under supervision and mentorship, independently lead more than one project within a growing portfolio of air quality, public health and environmental justice-related projects. The analyst will join the Impacts Analysis Group within SEAC, alongside researchers who perform environmental sustainability assessments of energy technologies. With objective, technology-neutral analysis, SEAC aims to increase understanding of energy policies, markets, resources, technologies, and infrastructure to address U.S. economic, security, and environmental priorities. SEAC researchers employ a wide range of advanced modeling methods and tools to assess the impacts of energy technologies, including air quality, public health and environmental justice models and tools as well as code-based lifecycle assessment (LCA) models. SEAC, in partnership with other Centers at NREL, is being asked to quantify the air quality impacts and benefits of energy technologies in a range of domestic and international contexts. We seek applicants interested in a diverse set of source sectors and project applications, interested in developing new air quality/impact methods as well as developing innovative computational solutions. Several bodies of work exist at NREL with emissions inventory, air quality modeling, health impact analysis and environmental justice foci. One body of work focuses on assessing the impact of power system transformation on air quality, collaborating with NREL's core capability in power sector modeling from decadal to sub-minute timescales (see, e.g., https://www.nrel.gov/analysis/electric-sector-integration.html). For this work, we work both domestically and internationally. We employ reduced complexity air quality models (like InMAP, as well as its global version, Global InMAP), source-specific models (like R-Line or SCICHEM) and are waiting for the right opportunity to use traditional, state-of-the-science air quality models (like WRF-Chem or CMAQ). Our projects examine a range of spatial scales from multi-country regions (like SE Asia), national and metropolitan. A flagship example of this modeling is the air quality, health and environmental justice portions of LA100 (see Chapters 9 and 10 here). Another emerging body of work focuses on use of hydrogen in combustion systems (e.g., to replace natural gas in combustion turbines for peaking loads). Our international portfolio is also growing (see a fact sheet). A good example of a completed project examined the air quality and health implications of greater use of renewable energy in the power sector of Southeast Asia. Finally, we have been characterizing emissions from the supply chain of biofuels for many years (https://www.nrel.gov/analysis/biofuels-emissions.html). NREL has advanced scientific computing capabilities within its Energy Systems Integration Facility. Applicants are sought that can bring our emerging air quality modeling capability to the next level with machine learning and advanced computing to answer challenging questions at greater spatial, temporal and global scales. The ideal candidate will have competency in using a wide range of computer tools, programming languages (e.g., Python, R, Fortran) and shell scripting (bash, C shell), as well as demonstrated experience in atmospheric and air quality modeling. Experience with machine learning and advanced computing (e.g., high-performance computing environment) to answer challenging questions at greater spatial, temporal, and global scales is highly desirable. Also desirable is an interest in adjacent disciplines and fields such as life cycle assessment, greenhouse gas inventories, air pollution measurement, citizen science, atmospheric sciences, etc. Knowledge of at least one energy sector (e.g., power, transportation) will be considered a plus. The candidate should have strong written communication skills, interest in leading drafting of publications; be highly motivated and self-directed; eager to join a fast-paced collaborative work environment; have an ability to "manage up"; and be available to start by fall 2023. . Basic Qualifications Must be a recent PhD graduate within the last three years. * Must meet educational requirements prior to employment start date. Additional Required Qualifications * Programming skills related to working with quantitative data analysis, such as experience in energy modeling and programming, knowledge of machine learning and advanced computing, fluency in Python or similarly functional language, and ability to quickly pick up other languages * Advanced experience running a range of air quality models, tools, and databases, including developing code-based workflows. While we use reduced-complexity air quality models, we would prefer candidates who also have experience with more advanced models that include ozone chemistry, secondary PM formation, oxides of nitrogen, etc. * Emission processing tools and software such as SMOKE, MOVES * Knowledge of air pollution control engineering * Excellent oral and written communication and recordkeeping skills, including the ability to give clear oral presentations on progress and results. * The ability to work independently within a team environment. * Self-motivated learner with demonstrated ability to grasp new concepts quickly and to develop new skills and models as needed.

The seafloor serves as the only long-term storage of oceanic carbon, and consideration of the exchanges between the water column and benthic sediments is a major knowledge gap in understanding carbon cycling near coasts and continental shelves, as well as the durability of proposed mCDR solutions. This work will be conducted as part of a large and exciting collaboration with researchers at Northeastern University, University of Maryland, University of Maine, Rutgers University, and University of Connecticut, and will focus on the role of benthic biogeochemical cycles and benthic food web on two mCDR strategies: kelp aquaculture and cessation of trawling. Work will consist of the development of a simple benthic biogeochemical model that can be coupled to the Modular Ocean Model 6 (MOM6) and the Carbon, Ocean Biogeochemistry, and Lower Trophics (COBALT) models, and experiments in a range of domains (1-dimensional to global) assessing the benthic-pelagic coupling on the ocean carbon cycle. The incumbent will work with an active group at Princeton and GFDL studying the connections between biogeochemistry, ecosystems, and climate ( https://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/marine-ecosystems/).

The position is located at the California Climate Hub in the UC Davis Institute for the Environment. The postdoc will analyze large datasets, build predictive models, run simulations, and develop intuitive interfaces to guide reforestation practices across California and the western US. This position will largely focus on analyses of common-garden datasets and the selection of climate-adapted seed sources for reforestation. This is a 2 + yr position with opportunities for extension, publications, professional development, and networking with a variety of scientific collaborators and ecosystem managers. Remote work is possible. Salary is negotiable, depending on expertise and experience, ranging between $70,000 to $80,000. Recent high-severity wildfires have left vast areas in California devoid of living trees, raising the prospect that without reforestation much of these areas could convert to shrublands or grasslands. Simultaneously, climate adaptation mismatch between the climate conditions that local tree populations are adapted to and the climate they now experience is accelerating, resulting in reduced growth and survival (Fig 1). Strategic reforestation represents an opportunity to adapt our forests to changing climate and to rebuild healthy forests for future generations. We build evidence-based tools to improve reforestation outcomes. The Climate-Adapted Seed Tool (CAST) helps managers choose climate-adapted seed sources. PostCRPT and PReSET respectively predict where reforestation is needed and where it will be most successful. Fig 1. (A) Tree populations tend to be adapted to past climate conditions, and experience substantial declines in growth and survival under disparate climate conditions. (B) The effects of climate adaptation mismatch are plain to see to the casual observer in this demonstration provenance test, which represents the right-hand side of panel A. (C) In the absence of climate-adapted seed transfer, forests could experience severe declines in growth and survival. Initial duties will focus on developing approaches for selecting diversified, climate-adapted portfolios of wild-collected native seed varieties for reforestation (see here), as well as broader analyses, and tool development to support the selection of climate-adapted genetic varieties for reforestation. Work to support the implementation of climate-adapted seed transfer (assisted gene flow) will leverage data from hundreds of thousands of trees planted in common garden experiments across Western North America, forest inventory data, and other spatiotemporal datasets and projections (e.g., climate, FIA), to support the selection of nearby genetic varieties that are better adapted to current and anticipated climate conditions. Evidence suggests that the simple intervention of planting more climate-adapted genetic varieties can yield immense benefits to forest recovery, carbon sequestration, timber production, and fire resistance. Other projects the postdoc could participate in include postfire reforestation prioritization, remote sensing tree distributions, as well as the potential for new data collection and experiments. Broadly, our goal is to achieve outsized positive impacts by nudging applied resource management toward better outcomes via intuitive and powerful decision-support tools. Minimum Qualifications: * PhD in a relevant STEM field (ecology, forestry, geography, statistics, etc.) * Strong proficiency in data science applications * Proficiency with scripted geospatial analysis in R (e.g., using the terra and sf packages) * Demonstrated record of producing reproducible research via scripted analyses * Evidence of ability to publish research results in peer-reviewed journals Desired Qualifications: * Experience with Bayesian non-linear model fitting and ensembling * Proficiency designing simulations, including selection of appropriate probability distributions * Proficiency in developing interactive web applications or data dashboards (e.g., R or Python) * Experience or background in genecology or quantitative genetics * Proficiency with Google Earth Engine * Familiarity with the flora and natural history of California and Western North America * Effective communication with both scientific collaborators and public stakeholders The team: This project is led by Joe Stewart and Steve Ostoja.

You can find information about the application process here; we hope you will consider applying. See below for some suggestions on how to formulate a good application! Sincerely, The Atmospheric Sciences faculty Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Department Indiana University Bloomington atmos at indiana.edu How to: submit a good grad school application We want to help you put together the best application possible. Here is some advice! What are we looking for? Our primary questions are: 1. Will this student succeed in our program, i.e., will they: * Do well in our graduate classes? * Be productive in research, including writing peer-reviewed papers? * Complete a good thesis in the normal amount of time (2 years for a masters, 5 for a Ph.D.)? 2. Does this student?s research interests align with the research interests of at least one faculty member? 3. Do we have grant funding to support the student their entire time here? (note that this relates to question 2?each professor has grant money related to specific research topics within their areas of interest) How do we evaluate applicants? We look at the entire graduate application to see if there are clear answers to the above questions. This includes rating applicants on specific questions: * Does the applicant have excellent academic preparation (e.g., relevant coursework, grades, GPA, etc.)? * Does the applicant have research experience and/or interest, and if so, how does it relate to research that we do? * Does the personal statement give a clear sense of what motivates the applicant to apply to our program specifically, and does it include a good research proposal indicating that the student has put careful thought and effort into considering what they might work on? * Does the applicant have good letters of recommendation from sources who give us specific information about how and why they think the applicant would be successful in our graduate programs? * Does the applicant?s research interest align with research directions for which we have grant funding? * Is there anything in the application that gives us reservations about the applicant (e.g., are there bad grades in the transcripts that the applicant does not address in the personal statement)? Other qualities that help applicants stand out are: * Excellent communication skills * Evidence of strong self-motivation and ability to do independent research * Strong technical skills, especially with data analysis Do and Don?t Here are some tips for what to do - and what not to do - to make sure you give us the best application possible. Do Don?t Do include a research proposal (in your personal statement); see here for good advice Don?t give a vague statement of interests; we want to see that you?ve done research on what you want to research Do submit a complete application, with all required materials Don?t submit an incomplete or late application; we can?t consider late or incomplete applications Do e-mail specific faculty members to get feedback on a research proposal before submitting your application Don?t submit an application without definitely knowing who would be your potential advisor and what topic(s) you would work on with them Do consider applying, even if you have an undergraduate degree in another field Don?t submit an application without a statement that tells us why you want to get a graduate degree in Atmospheric Science specifically; we need to be convinced that your research interests and preparation will allow you to succeed Do research us, our department, our graduate program, and Indiana University and make it clear in your application that you?ve done so Don?t submit a generic application that you?ve copy-pasted to multiple graduate programs; it gives us more confidence in your likelihood to succeed here if it is clear you have put a lot of thought into what your life would be like as a graduate student here -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Valerio) Date: Tue, 8 Aug 2023 18:33:19 +0000 Subject: [ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoctoral Research Associate in Ocean Biogeochemical Modeling, Princeton, NJ Message-ID: The Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University, in association with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), seeks postdoctoral research associate to work in the area of ocean and benthic biogeochemical modeling and marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). The seafloor serves as the only long-term storage of oceanic carbon, and consideration of the exchanges between the water column and benthic sediments is a major knowledge gap in understanding carbon cycling near coasts and continental shelves, as well as the durability of proposed mCDR solutions. This work will be conducted as part of a large and exciting collaboration with researchers at Northeastern University, University of Maryland, University of Maine, Rutgers University, and University of Connecticut, and will focus on the role of benthic biogeochemical cycles and benthic food web on two mCDR strategies: kelp aquaculture and cessation of trawling. Work will consist of the development of a simple benthic biogeochemical model that can be coupled to the GFDL Carbon, Ocean Biogeochemistry, and Lower Trophics (COBALT) model, and experiments in a range of domains (1-dimensional to global) assessing the benthic-pelagic coupling on the ocean carbon cycle. The incumbent will work with an active group at Princeton and GFDL studying the connections between biogeochemistry, ecosystems, and climate (https://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/marine-ecosystems/). A Ph.D. is required in either oceanography, biogeochemistry, computational earth system science, or related field. Candidates with interest in or experience in ocean biogeochemical modeling, particularly model development, are especially encouraged to apply. Initial appointment is for one year with the possibility of renewal for one additional year subject to satisfactory performance and funding. Complete applications, including a cover letter, CV with a list of publications, a statement of research interests (no more than 2 pages including references), and contact information of 3 references should be submitted by September 5, 2023 11:59 EST for full consideration, though evaluation will be ongoing.

The RVCC-Hub goals are to: 1) co-create convergence research with social and earth sciences and Indigenous knowledge to improve modeling and prediction of coastal processes that support decision-making by Indigenous communities around mitigation and adaptation; 2) develop a successful, inclusive framework for cross-cultural convergence research that can be adopted and adapted by future research collaborations; 3) broaden participation amongst Indigenous students and researchers, and train a new generation of diverse convergence research scientists; 4) increase administrative and technological infrastructure to support current and future research with and by Indigenous scientists and communities. The place-based research is focused on four regions: Alaska (Arctic), Louisiana (Gulf of Mexico), Hawai?i (Pacific Islands), and Puerto Rico (Caribbean Islands). Three broad topic areas of interest are Changing Coastal Weather, Coastal Erosion and Flooding, and Coastal Ecosystems. The ASP-RVCC postdoctoral fellows will join the community of the Advanced Study Program (https://edec.ucar.edu/advanced-study-program) and conduct independent or collaborative, culturally relevant research as related to the RVCC-Hub priorities and questions, and contribute to the RVCC goals. Applicants are encouraged to contact the ASP Science Advisor Scott Landolt ( landolt at ucar.edu) or NCAR EdEC Director Rebecca Haacker (rhaacker at ucar.edu) for questions about the positions and potential projects and mentors.

The project is a collaboration between QMUL?s School of Geography, the University of Guelph (Canada), Monash University (Australia) and Arizona State University (USA). The team aim to resolve the composition, capabilities, and activities of atmospheric microbes at a global scale, with the overall goal to distinguish whether the atmosphere exhibits structure and microbial activity characteristic of a true ecosystem, or if it is simply a passive dispersal medium for microorganisms. The PDRA will develop theoretical modelling approaches (including bioenergetics calculations, power-based ecosystem modelling) to investigate the potential habitability and ecological structure and function of microbial communities in the atmosphere. The initial focus for the PDRA is to model the habitability and ecological processes occurring in Earth's atmosphere, and then to translate the tools and knowledge generated to the atmosphere of other planetary bodies or exoplanets. The postdoc will be embedded within a larger team of microbiologists, geochemists, engineers and astrobiologists (in the UK, Canada, the US and Australia) who are working collaboratively, via our recent Human Frontier Science Program award, to understand the atmosphere is as a 'living, breathing ecosystem'. Aside from the main modelling duties, the PDRA will have the opportunity to participate in our global sampling campaign and is expected to interact frequently with other members of the larger team to assist with the generation and interpretation of biological, geochemical, and geophysical data (and its integration into numerical models), and contribute towards the team's outputs and dissemination activities. The PDRA will develop, implement and apply microbial bioenergetics ecosystem modelling tools to study the atmosphere, including its resident microorganisms and its overall habitability. Modelling will focus on: i) Connecting the physicochemical characteristics of the atmosphere with its (potentially) resident microorganisms. ii) Determining plausible rates of energy-generating and energy-requiring reactions for atmosphere dwelling microorganisms and assess catabolic and anabolic activity. iii) Combining various (biological, geochemical and geophysical) datasets to assess the survival and potential growth of atmosphere-dwelling microorganisms (using data generated by the project, as well as existing data). iv) Assessing habitability of Earth?s atmosphere and habitability indices of the atmospheres of other planetary bodies. The PDRA will be a full member of the HFSP research and as well as modelling, is expected to participate in the team?s data analyses and synthesis efforts, participate in cross-discipline collaboration, training and knowledge sharing exercises, and may take part in fieldwork. The PDRA will be expected to lead the presentation of findings at national and international conferences, and publish in leading academic journals. Applicants must have a PhD (by time of appointment) in a relevant natural science discipline, and a track-record of research productivity, including peer-reviewed publications. Candidates should have experience in numerical/bioenergetic/ecosystem/habitability modelling, and good understanding of microbial processes in the context of habitability and astrobiology. Candidates should demonstrate initiative and the ability to work independently. The post is based at the Mile End Campus in London. It is full time post for 2 years with the possibility of extension subject to available funds, with an expected start date in September 2023 or as soon as possible after that date. The starting salary will be ?40,223 (Grade 4) per annum pro-rata inclusive of London Allowance. Informal enquiries should be addressed to Dr. James Bradley at james.bradley at qmul.ac.uk. To apply for the role, please visit: https://www.qmul.ac.uk/jobs/vacancies/items/8632.html Applications should include: - A cover letter (max. 2 pages) stating your motivation for applying to this position, research interests, relevant skills, training and experience. - Curriculum vitae. - Copy of official transcript(s). - Contact information for at least two and up to 3 references.

Several bodies of work exist at NREL with emissions inventory, air quality modeling, health impact analysis and environmental justice foci. One body of work focuses on assessing the impact of power system transformation on air quality, collaborating with NREL?s core capability in power sector modeling from decadal to sub-minute timescales (see, e.g., https://www.nrel.gov/analysis/electric-sector-integration.html). For this work, we work both domestically and internationally. We employ reduced complexity air quality models (like InMAP, as well as its global version, Global InMAP), source-specific models (like R-Line or SCICHEM) and are waiting for the right opportunity to use traditional, state-of-the-science air quality models (like WRF-Chem or CMAQ). Our projects examine a range of spatial scales from multi-country regions (like SE Asia), national and metropolitan. A flagship example of this modeling is the air quality, health and environmental justice portions of LA100 (see Chapters 9 and 10 here). Another emerging body of work focuses on use of hydrogen in combustion systems (e.g., to replace natural gas in combustion turbines for peaking loads). Our international portfolio is also growing (see a fact sheet). A good example of a completed project examined the air quality and health implications of greater use of renewable energy in the power sector of Southeast Asia. Finally, we have been characterizing emissions from the supply chain of biofuels for many years (https://www.nrel.gov/analysis/biofuels-emissions.html). The ideal candidate will have competency in using a wide range of computer tools, programming languages (e.g., Python, R, Fortran) and shell scripting (bash, C shell), as well as demonstrated experience in atmospheric and air quality modeling. Experience with machine learning and advanced computing (e.g., high-performance computing environment) to answer challenging questions at greater spatial, temporal, and global scales is highly desirable. Also desirable is an interest in adjacent disciplines and fields such as life cycle assessment, greenhouse gas inventories, air pollution measurement, citizen science, atmospheric sciences, etc. Knowledge of at least one energy sector (e.g., power, transportation) will be considered a plus. The candidate should have strong written communication skills, interest in leading drafting of publications; be highly motivated and self-directed; eager to join a fast-paced collaborative work environment; have an ability to ?manage up?; and be available to start by fall 2023.

Thank you for your help Hans Christian Steen-Larsen Associate Professor Geophysical Institute University of Bergen ------------------------- PhD Research Fellow within Water Isotope Research There is a vacancy for a PhD Research Fellow within Water Isotope Research at the Geophysical Institute, University of Bergen. The position is for a fixed-term period of 3 years and is associated with the research project Isotopic Transfer Rates During Water Phase Changes funded by the Research Council of Norway. The position is at the Geophysical Institute, University of Bergen, with an affiliation at the Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research. About the project/work tasks The project ?Isotopic Transfer Rates during Water Phase Changes - iTRANSFER? consists of an experimental and modeling component that will establish an accurate basis for the use of water isotopic composition in studies of the terrestrial and extraterrestrial hydrological cycle. The iTRANSFER project will use new precise water isotopologue spectroscopy analyzers in experimental laboratory setups to measure the isotopologue transfer rates. Water isotopologue spectroscopy analyzers allow developing new experimental setups utilizing the possibility for continuous measurements of the water vapor isotopologue composition and the need for only very small sample volumes. The iTRANSFER project will furthermore use climate models equipped with water isotopologues together with networks of in-situ atmospheric water vapor isotopologue measurements to evaluate the effect of the new and more accurate fractionation factors. The task of the successful research fellow will carry out world class research with the focus on quantifying equilibrium fractionation factors for water isotopologues during phase change between vapor and solid at temperatures between 0?C and -60?C, between vapor and super cooled liquid at temperatures between 0?C and - 20?C, and during phase change between liquid and ice. In addition, the successful research fellow will quantify molecular diffusivity for the water isotopologues in air at different temperatures and quantify influence of wind speed on the structure of the diffusion dominated sub-layer in contact with the interphase of the water surface. Qualifications Applicants must hold a master's degree or equivalent education in within geophysics, geosciences, physics, or geochemistry.

Two years of detailed observations of turbulence, internal waves and frontal dynamics were collected in the coastal waters of the Gulf of Mexico from multiple simultaneous vessels and provide a unique dataset to explore submesoscale ocean physics. The data are part of the SUNRISE project (Submesoscales Under Near-Resonant Inertial Shear Experiment), and include approximately 50,000 turbulence profiles, very high-resolution towed thermistor chain and ADCP data from 4 synchronized vessels, and moorings that span several different dynamical regimes during 3-week campaigns in the summers of 2021 and 2022. While some initial results have been published (see Qu et al, Nature Comm, 2022, doi:10.1038/s41467-022-33251-7), a vast amount of data is available for this Postdoc to explore. The Postdoc will have considerable latitude to pursue their own directions with the data analyses and interpretation, and will also be supported by a larger team that includes observational components led by Jennifer MacKinnon (Scripps) and numerical modeling efforts by the groups led by John Taylor (Cambridge) and Leif Thomas (Stanford). Collaboration is strongly encouraged within and outside these groups. Location: College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon, USA. Mentorship team: The Postdoc will work under the mentorship of Jonathan Nash, Jesse Cusack and Kipp Shearman. The mentor team will provide opportunities to gain additional skills and experiences, for example, by providing opportunities to conduct fieldwork at sea. Length and benefits: The position is renewable annually, so long as the postdoctoral scholar remains within five years from receipt of their doctoral degree; reappointment is contingent upon performance and continued funding availability and is at the discretion of the PIs and the OSU Office of Postdoctoral Programs. Stipend and benefits conform with postdoctoral scholar standards at OSU (http://gradschool.oregonstate.edu/postdocs). Requirements: A PhD in Oceanography, Fluid Dynamics, Engineering, Physics, Applied Mathematics, or related fields is required. Strong publication record in prestigious peer reviewed journals. Ability to conduct physics-based analyses on a large, multi-faceted oceanographic dataset using programming languages such as python or MATLAB. Ability to work independently. Strong commitment to work collaboratively in a group composed of diverse participants with different expertise, gender, identities and/or nationality.
