A novel fine resolution SO simulation with tidal forcing, ice shelf cavities, and thermodynamically active ice shelves will allow for the investigation of the connection between ASC variability and ice shelf melt events. The results from this work will provide foundational knowledge on the ASC?s climatological state and structure, its variability, and its role in the evolving climate system. This research will also provide critical insight on the role that model resolution may play in ASC dynamics, a step which is vital for improving the fidelity of model simulations and future projections. The OCC lab: Research in the OCC lab is centered on understanding the role of the ocean in the climate system ? its present state, future evolution, and coupled processes between the ocean and other components of the climate system. The OCC lab specializes in evaluating the performance of climate models in representing ocean processes and properties, developing diagnostics to build a process-level understanding of model performance and climate projections, coupled ocean ? climate processes, Southern Ocean physical and biogeochemical dynamics, and ice-ocean processes along the Antarctic margin. The OCC lab runs its own high-performance analysis and data storage system for analysis of observations and climate model simulations, putting state of the art computing at your fingertips. Prospective candidates: Candidates must have received their Ph.D. in a relevant field (oceanography, physics, applied math, geoscience, computer science, etc.) at the time of hire. Candidates should have strong experience in the Python programming language and Unix.

Please send resume and cover letter to cwilson at sura.org if interested in the position. Postgraduate PFAS Tech PREP Associate This position is part of the National Institute of Standards (NIST) Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. NIST recognizes that its research staff may wish to collaborate with researchers at academic institutions on specific projects of mutual interest, thus requires that such institutions must be the recipient of a PREP award. The PREP program requires staff from a wide range of backgrounds to work on scientific research in many areas. Employees in this position will perform technical work that underpins the scientific research of the collaboration. There is growing evidence that firefighters are being exposed to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) associated with their gear. The source of the PFAS may be from the firefighter gear (FFG) construction materials or manufacturing process, deterioration of the FFG during service, and/or deposition on the FFG while on duty. To characterize and reduce the firefighter?s risk of being exposed to PFAS, NIST is starting new study to understand the type, prevalence, and concentration of PFAS on the FFG, the source of PFAS, and the mechanism for PFAS release from the FFG. This study is being conducted in collaboration with staff in MML. This study has three main thrusts. ? Thrust 1: Characterize PFAS associated with FFG textiles (e.g.; jacket, pants, gloves) new/unused, and after stressing. Stressing is intended to mimic typical wear-and-tear conditions while a Firefighter is on duty (e.g., elevated temperatures, abrasion, and laundering). ? Thrust 2: Characterize PFAS found at firefighter?s common workplace environments (e.g., fire scene, fire truck, and fire station). Understanding not only what PFAS species are identified but the source of the PFAS is essential to developing strategies to reducing Firefighter?s risk of being exposed to PFAS. ? Thrust 3: Coordinate and collaborate our research with the existing PFAS research community who are studying PFAS from AFFF, human health effects from PFAS exposure, etc.. The purpose of this is to use our data to help in the development of comprehensive strategy to reduce/eliminate Firefighter exposure to PFAS. This is a position that requires delivering for these thrusts but provides flexibility and independency to adjust based on the person?s interests and skills. The PREP researcher?s work will primarily be in a chemistry/material science research laboratory setting. The researcher will be responsible for executing and reporting out sample preparation (stressing, extraction, etc.) and assisting in the analysis (chromatography, etc.) of specimens containing fluorinated chemicals. The work will entail: Key responsibilities will include but are not limited to: * Setting up, executing, and reporting out on preparing specimens for analysis (labeling, cutting, and storing of specimens, wet chemistry extractions and handling, etc.). * Setting up, executing, and reporting out on preparing and completing physical stressing (abrasion, thermal, etc.) and airborne experiments of specimens. * Assist in the operating equipment and collecting of PFAS from thermal degradation and combustion experiments. * Willing to learn how to operate analytic equipment (gas chromotography, etc.) Qualifications ? B.S. or M.S. in chemistry or related field ? 2 semesters of lab experience (before or after degree) ? Good communications skills ? Good time management skills ? Strong team focus ?

Application deadline: October 27, 2023 Apply through Zintellect: https://www.zintellect.com/Opportunity/Details/DOI-USGS-2023-11 Position Description: In partnership with NatureServe, this project will provide technical assistance and research on climate data analysis, statistical model development and testing, and human-computer interaction applications in support of developing a next-generation version of the Climate Change Vulnerability Index (CCVI). The CCVI is extensively used by state and other wildlife management partners for conducting climate change vulnerability assessments (CCVAs) for species. CCVAs provide important information for prioritizing and planning conservation management under a changing climate. However, advances in science dictate that the tool be updated and improved. This project will contribute to the development, testing, and release of a modern version of CCVI that will be web hosted, use the latest CMIP climate data, and support collaboration and data sharing. Additionally, the updated version will be made more robust with improved accounting for uncertainty and incorporation of new science on climate change vulnerability (e.g., adaptive capacity) and vulnerability assessments, along with a better understanding and presentation of the sensitivity of the CCVI algorithm to its various inputs. The project will involve: 1. ?Collation and critical evaluation of updated climate exposure variables and climate models (and climate model ensembles), including sources of uncertainty and appropriate scales or contexts for application. 2. Quantitative sensitivity analysis of the independent and combined effects of climate exposure variables on the CCVI algorithm and resulting vulnerability score. Of particular interest is the relationship between?and relative importance of?exposure (abiotic conditions) and adaptive capacity (i.e., biological traits) variables in their influence on the resulting score. 3. Evaluating the need for variable weighting (or down-weighting) the importance of variables in the CCVI algorithm. 4. Pilot testing the use of climate scenarios to guide selection of exposure metrics. The appointment is full-time. The participant will receive a monthly stipend based on education and experience. The current stipend for this opportunity is $84,923 per year plus an insurance supplement estimated at $18,936. Citizenship Requirements: This opportunity is available to U.S. citizens only. The qualified candidate should have received a doctoral degree in one of the relevant fields listed in the eligibility requirements section or be currently pursuing the degree with completion before December 31, 2023. Degree must have been received within the last five years.

The associate will be part of the Molecular and Cellular Imaging Group in the Biosciences Division, Biological and Environmental System Sciences Directorate (BESSD) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The SoilCosm project will develop an incubator-based system for live monitoring of gas fluxes in small soil microcosms and to apply the system to better understand soil carbon sequestration. Soil is a complex system with numerous interacting components, including root exudates, soil texture, microbial communities, and climatic variables. Reducing atmospheric carbon through soil carbon sequestration is a potential tool to mitigate risks of climate change, however research has shown a potential risk to the strategy due to rhizosphere priming. In priming, fresh carbon inputs can increase microbial activity and lead to the oxidation and release of previously stored carbon as carbon dioxide, thus having the opposite of the intended effect. We wish to better understand the combinations of conditions that lead to positive versus negative priming. To do this, we will develop the SoilCosm Soil Phenotyping platform combining LI-COR gas flux instruments for monitoring carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane and complement with physical sampling for measures of soil carbon, nutrients, and microbiome metagenomics. The project also includes use of a modeling framework to compare the performance of various models and to use the models to guide experiments. The Postdoctoral Research Associate would be responsible for assembling the SoilCosm system and using it to conduct experiments with live soils to determine what drives priming. Therefore, experience with soil measurements, especially gas flux, is highly desirable. Experience with modeling would also be desirable. Work will be conducted within a highly interdisciplinary environment to construct and use a multi-chamber soil flux monitoring system and use simulation modeling to better understand soil priming. Major Duties/Responsibilities: - Conduct collaborative scientific research using soil gas flux instrumentation and modeling. - Lead and contribute to the preparation of scientific manuscripts. - Present research findings at national and international scientific meetings. - Work independently to support interdisciplinary research efforts within the SoilCosm project. - Deliver ORNL?s mission by aligning behaviors, priorities, and interactions with our core values of Impact, Integrity, Teamwork, Safety, and Service. Promote diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility by fostering a respectful workplace ? in how we treat one another, work together, and measure success. Basic Qualifications: - A PhD in Soil Science, Plant Science, Ecology, Agronomy, or a related field completed within the last 5 years Preferred Qualifications: - Demonstrated expertise in one or more of the following areas is desirable: soil flux, soil carbon, microbial ecology, and modeling. Priority will be given to candidates that have demonstrated the application of their experience and these techniques to the characterization of soil carbon dynamics - Excellent written and oral communication skills - Motivated self-starter with the ability to work independently and to participate creatively in collaborative teams across the laboratory - Ability to function well in a fast-paced research environment, set priorities to accomplish multiple tasks within deadlines, and adapt to ever changing needs Applicants cannot have received their Ph.D. more than five years prior to the date of application and must complete all degree requirements before starting their appointment. The appointment length will be for up to 24 months with the potential for extension. Initial appointments and extensions are subject to performance and the availability of funding.

For over 40 years, and through several rounds of IPCC reports, the climate science community has made projections of long-term climate change under specific emissions scenarios. The signals of climate change have now begun to emerge from the noise in observations and reanalysis data, although internal variability still makes a quantitative assessment of forced trends in observations challenging. The successful candidate will work closely with a team of scientists from UChicago, NCAR and Princeton University/GFDL to address the following questions as they relate to extratropical storm tracks and their associated extreme events: Are the trends in observations, reanalysis data and climate model projections consistent? If inconsistencies exist, can we relate this to deficiencies in the representation of forced trends or of internal variability? What physical mechanisms underlie the emerging signals? The research will leverage the wealth of existing observation, reanalysis and climate model data to answer the questions. The successful candidate will closely collaborate with Prof. Tiffany Shaw (UChicago), Dr. Isla Simpson (NCAR), Dr. Pu Lin (Princeton U./GFDL), Dr. Zhihong Tan (Princeton U./GFDL). The postdoctoral scholar will spend 1 month per year at NCAR in Boulder, CO visiting Dr. Simpson to collaborate on the proposed research. The initial position is for one year, with the possibility of renewal for an additional two years, subject to satisfactory progress and funding availability. The salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. While the start date can be flexible, the position will become available from December 1, 2023 and will be open until filled. Responsibilities: Analyze trends in a large set of observational and model data sets. Use physical frameworks to understand trends in observations and models, including interpreting discrepancies between observed and modeled trends. Develop testable hypotheses to advance our understanding of emerging climate signals. Present research findings at conferences and seminars. Publish results in high-quality, peer-reviewed journals. Minimum qualifications: Completed a doctoral degree in atmospheric science, climate science, fluid dynamics, or a related field at the time of appointment. However, we will seriously consider any outstanding candidates from other fields with rigorous training in mathematics and physics if they are strongly motivated to study the atmosphere and climate. Demonstrated ability to address significant scientific questions using the scientific method. Demonstrated excellence in written and verbal communication skills. Preferred qualifications: Strong background in at least one of the following areas: climate change, atmospheric/fluid dynamics, or machine learning. Capacity to analyze large datasets such as output from high-resolution models or observations. Proficiency in numerical analysis and high-performance computing. Experience with atmosphere/climate models of various complexities. Strong planning and organizational skills, with the capacity to effectively prioritize multiple tasks, set clear deadlines, and consistently meet them. Applications/How to apply: Please email Prof. Tiffany Shaw (tas1 at uchicago.edu) with the following documents: (1) a cover letter, (2) a curriculum vitae, and (3) the names and contact information of three references. We will begin reviewing applications on November 15, 2023, and the position will remain open until filled.

However, beyond observational technological challenges, specifically collecting high-resolution orbital or suborbital spatial observations, central questions about the interpretation of these measurements still exist, in particular to address mesoscale and submesoscale variability and the active coupling between the winds, waves and currents. Luc Lenain (SIO/UCSD), Mara Freilich (Brown) and Nick Pizzo (URI) are seeking a full-time postdoctoral research associate with a background in atmospheric sciences, physical oceanography, or a related field. The postdoc will be funded through the NASA Ocean Vector Wind Science Team (OVWST) program and S-MODE, a project that aims to characterize the contribution of submesoscale ocean dynamics to vertical and horizontal transport in the upper ocean by employing a combination of aircraft-based remote sensing measurements of the ocean surface, in-situ measurements from research vessels and a variety of autonomous oceanographic platforms, and numerical modeling. The postdoctoral scholar will collaborate with Lenain, Freilich, and Pizzo on the analysis of submesoscale ocean dynamics and air-sea interaction processes, using a combination of S-MODE observations, theory, and numerical simulations. The postdoctoral scholar will be primarily based at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD, with extended stays expected at Brown and University of Rhode Island. The postdoctoral scholar will benefit from professional development opportunities including mentorship by the project collaborators and resources available at UC San Diego such as those through the Office of Postdoctoral Scholar Affairs, Scripps Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion office, and the Teaching and Learning Commons.

The Research Fellow placed in this full-time ORISE research opportunity will evaluate responses of west coast forest ecosystems to fires over the past 20 years, leveraging a large dataset constructed from over two decades of repeated measurements of permanent inventory plots in forests that burned. Your analysis of this spatially balanced, statistically representative sample will contribute to our understanding of both immediate fire impacts, with a focus on tree mortality and carbon outcomes, and carbon and management-relevant aspects of post-fire trajectories. We'll also investigate post-fire trajectories to understand 1) post-fire dead wood dynamics and their implications for wildlife habitat, carbon pool transfers, and future fire behavior; 2) post-fire forest structural and community dynamics, including describing post-fire vegetation development without active management under different pre-fire structural conditions and burn severities; and 3) early seral habitats initiated by fires of varying severity across a gradient of pre-fire stand structures. Summarizing and building models from these data across nearly 1000 forest inventory plots that span broad gradients in climate, forest type, and fire severity will allow us to generalize findings more broadly to west coast forests. Qualifications Sought: * Experience or familiarity with analyzing forest inventory data, ideally including growth, removals and mortality analysis in which longitudinally collected tree data are reconciled; fire behavior and effects analysis; and forest carbon dynamics. * Strong data management skills, especially working in relational databases (e.g., MS Access or SQLite) and analysis programming environments (e.g., R or Python) to link, query, summarize, massage/restructure and analyze large datasets to generate clearly understandable tables and graphics that convey accurate and compelling interpretations; * An affinity for patiently digging into longitudinal plot and tree list data to seek out both patterns and anomalies and developing creative solutions for resolving the latter as part of integrated quality assurance; * A capable communicator, both oral and written, with skill in documenting analysis processes and reporting research findings; * Familiarity with relevant literature or a commitment to move quickly and independently to become current in relevant literature and methods.

Kind regards, Matthias -- Post-doctoral researcher: Combined plant hydraulics and xylem growth in a global dynamic vegetation model Background The project PHydrauCC researches the interactions between tree growth and hydraulic traits under ambient and elevated CO2, using data from Free-Air Carbon dioxide Enrichment (FACE) facilities. To determine the resilience of trees under changing climatic conditions, it is imperative to know whether elevated CO2 will affect the structure of wood and the physiological traits conferring drought- and heat-tolerance. Plant hydraulic traits describe the efficiency and safety of water transport through roots, stems, branches, and leaves. It is unknown how growth variations under rising CO2 and a changing climate will affect those traits. Aim This postdoc of PHydrauCC will assess forest resilience to future climate change on continental scale under the dichotomy of the very different hydraulic strategies of conifers and broadleaved trees. A hydraulic and tree-ring formation model, developed in another workpackage, will be adapted and incorporated in a dynamic global vegetation model. We expect that the new combined model of tree-ring formation and plant hydraulics will display hysteresis and legacy effects in plant growth for several years after major drought and heat wave events. Drought-related risks under climate change in temperate and boreal forests will be evaluated, with a special interest in the different hydraulic strategies of broadleaved angiosperms compared to needle-leaved gymnosperms. We are looking for an enthusiastic researcher able to work with and develop large-scale vegetation models based on partial differential equations, who is motivated to study legacy effects in forests in response to major drought events. The successful candidate will work closely with Matthias Cuntz and Emilie Joetzjer (UMR Silva ) located in Nancy , France, and with the other members of the project PHydrauCC such as Jean-Christophe Domec , J?r?me Og?e , Myriam Moreno (UMR ISBA), as well as Cyrille Rathgeber (UMR Silva ) and several students.

Also, note that this position will remain open until filled. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Steve Wondzell ======================================================================== SUMMARY: ORISE Post-Doctoral Fellow: Modeling hydrological outcomes of stream and valley floor Restoration. The U.S. Forest Service's Pacific Northwest Research Station is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow (Post-Doc) with quantitative experience in hydrology - especially development of reach- to watershed-scale water budgets and groundwater flow modeling. The Post-Doc will be engaged in a highly collaborative multi-agency monitoring and analysis effort to determine the effects of watershed-scale restoration project in Meadow Creek, a tributary of the Grande Ronde River in NE Oregon. A critical focal question for this project is: Does restoration measurably augment late-summer stream flow? Answering this question will require use of groundwater flow models to simulate pre- and post-restoration flows and storage of shallow groundwater in the floodplains of the restored stream and development of a reach-scale water budget that accounts for all fluxes into, and out of, the reach. This post-doctoral fellowship will offer tremendous opportunities for collaborative engagement with a diverse group of researchers, managers, and stakeholders addressing critical land management issues in the inter-mountain western USA. This is a full-time, one-year appointment, but could be extended for an additional year upon recommendation of USFS and is contingent on the availability of funds.
