Familiarity with atmospheric aerosols, particularly dust, clouds, and precipitation, and additional experience running climate or chemical transport models are desirable. Applications from women and underrepresented minorities are particularly encouraged, and U.S. citizenship or residency is not required.

Application for this position must be submitted through https://aprecruit.ucmerced.edu/JPF01607, which includes information about required documents.
