[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoctoral Fellow in ocean circulation and consequences for algae blooms at Stockholm University

[Inga Koszalka]

The Department of Meteorology (MISU) is offering a position for a Postdoctoral Fellow in ocean circulation and consequences for algae blooms. This is a full-time employment for a maximum of two years, with a possibility of extension. The position is a part of the collaborative project "Forecast framework for algae blooms to secure water supply on Gotland (ALGOTL)", funded by the Swedish Research Council for Sustainable Development (FORMAS) and involving Stockholm University (SU), the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) and Region Gotland.

The successful candidate will participate in modelling activities and analysis of decadal-scale regional ocean model (NEMO Nordic) simulations to investigate physical and biological processes in the Baltic Sea that affect development of algae blooms. The aim is to predict occurrence and intensity of algae blooms around Gotland due to the inter-annual variability and climate change and their impacts on water resources and coastal services on Gotland. The postdoc will also contribute to development of analysis framework for comparison between the model output and available observational data as well as impact- and risk modelling. A special attention will be given to research skills within the area of the employment as well as problem-solving analytical ability and numerical analytical ability. A good command of Python and FORTRAN is an advantage. 

The position closes for applications September 6, 2024 11:59 PM CEST.
