Rhode Island - seek US citizen or green card holder Message-ID: *Forecasting the Gulf of Mexico Loop Current System* We seek a postdoc to work collaboratively with oceanographers at the University of Rhode Island (URI) and at the US Naval Research Laboratory- Stennis Spaceflight Center (NRL-SSC) to improve numerical forecasting of the Gulf of Mexico and its Loop Current System. *Opportunity / background.* Processes in the Gulf of Mexico Loop Current and Loop Current Eddies, interacting with sea floor topography, drive essentially all strong subtidal current variability from sea surface to sea floor in the deep Gulf of Mexico. Close dynamical analogies exist to atmospheric jet stream meanders and storm systems, interacting with Earth's topography, and our forecasting developments build upon these similarities. A key gap exists in forecasting of ocean currents and thermal structure: Almost all input data for model assimilation are from near-surface measurements. This arises because until recently in the ocean only surface data have been available in near real time. In contrast in the atmosphere, barometric pressure and observational profiles of temperature, density, and wind vectors are available through the full air column on a suitable grid of sites to forecast the weather. Cost-effective ways now exist to report subsurface ocean observations in near real time, and the methods are particularly applicable in marginal seas such as the Gulf of Mexico. Subsurface ocean observations assimilated into predictive numerical models offer fundamental advancements in forecasting skill for ocean currents and thermal structure. *Objective:* Develop methods to use deep current and bottom pressure observations to extend forecasts of the strongly varying deep current systems in the Gulf. *Science collaborators:* Prof. Randolph Watts and Prof. Kathleen Donohue at URI; Dr. Clark Rowley and Dr. Prasad Thoppil at NRL-SSC. *Requirements and Preferences:* Candidates should have a PhD, and a broad range of experience will be considered, such as physics, mathematics, engineering, meteorology, physical oceanography. Some preference will be given for a background in mesoscale/synoptic scale processes in the ocean/atmosphere, and for data assimilation in ocean/atmosphere modeling. There is a strong preference for candidates who are US citizens or permanent resident (green card holders), to have access to NRL computer systems. *Application Instructions: * send to randywatts at uri.edu, using ?Post Doc Position? as subject line: ?

Marseille, France. Message-ID: 2 year postdoc: Atmosphere Microbial Habitability Modelling. Marseille, France. We are seeking a 24-month Postdoc (PhD-level position) in Marseille, France, to work on a Human Frontier Science Project (HFSP) funded project ?The atmosphere: a living, breathing ecosystem??. The project is a collaboration involving the MIO in Marseille (France), the University of Guelph (Canada), Monash University (Australia) and Arizona State University (USA). The position is under the supervision of Dr. James Bradley ( https://www.jbradleylab.com/). The overall aim of our project is to resolve the composition, capabilities, and activities of atmospheric microbes at a global scale, 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 postdoc will develop theoretical modelling approaches (including bioenergetics calculations and 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 postdoc 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 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 postdoc will be embedded within a larger international team of microbiologists, geochemists, engineers and astrobiologists who are working collaboratively to understand the atmosphere is as a 'living, breathing ecosystem'. The postdoc 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 position is based at the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography on the Luminy Campus of Aix-Marseille University in Marseille, France, and will be expected to lead the presentation of findings at national and international conferences, and publish in leading academic journals. It is full time post for 2 years with the possibility of extension subject to available funds, with an expected start date in May 2024 or as soon as possible after that date. The successful candidate will be entitled to 49 days of holiday per year, with the possibility of remote working. The successful candidate will also enjoy a vibrant research group, access to excellent research facilities and platforms at the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography and Aix-Marseille University, and be embedded in a team committed to high scientific integrity, open and reproducible science, and promoting inclusivity. Marseille is an affordable, vibrant and historic city on the Mediterranean coast, with culinary excellence, diverse cultural experiences, and a large international community. The candidate will be based in the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography, on the Luminy campus of Aix-Marseille Universit?, which is surrounded by nature being nestled among the spectacular Calanques National Park. The Euraxess Center of Aix-Marseille Universit? informs foreign visiting professors, researchers, postdoc and PhD candidates about the administrative steps to be undertaken prior to arrival at AMU and the various practical formalities to be completed once in France: visas and entry requirements, insurance, help finding accommodation, support in opening a bank account, etc. The successful candidate should have: ? PhD (by time of appointment) in a relevant natural science discipline, and a track-record of research productivity, including peer-reviewed publications. ? Specialist knowledge and demonstrable experience in numerical, bioenergetic, ecosystem and/or habitability modelling. ? Strong mathematical skills and programming experience. ?

Strong research and attractive study programmes attract researchers and students from around the world. With new knowledge and new perspectives, the University contributes to a better future. The Department of Marine Science (https://www.gu.se/marina-vetenskaper) at the University of Gothenburg has with its broad scientific competence area and its unique infrastructure the most complete environment for marine science and marine education in Sweden. Only a few similar organisations exist in Europe. Through advanced research infrastructure and the clear connection to societies needs and challenges, the department contributes to new solutions for the global challenges surrounding the ocean. The Department of Marine Science conducts science, education and innovation related to the sea and its resources. The operation is conducted in Gothenburg, at the research stations Kristineberg Center for Marine Science and Innovation and Tja?rno? Marine Laboratory, as well as on the research vessel Skagerak. The department has an interdisciplinary width that includes marine biology, marine chemistry, marine geology, marine conservation and oceanography, and the research area spans geographically from coast to world ocean. Our scientists and students often have prominent roles in international expeditions, from Antarctica, Arctic, and the great world seas, but also work in our newly built laboratories with advanced equipment and complex analyses methods. The department also has a broad education palette, including a bachelor?s program, three master?s programs and a Ph. D. education in the marine domain. Subject area Oceanography Subject area description Physics-climate processes in the oceans is one of the primary sources of uncertainty in global climate understanding and its future prediction. These uncertainties are particularly prevalent in the subtropical gateways that link the global overturning circulation. One such region is the Cape Basin and Agulhas Current System, where the current scarcity of observations that encompass the above processes, and the uncertainty of the correct scales to measure them means we know remarkably little about the interaction of the processes occurring between the millimeter to 100s of kilometer scale and their links to the larger climate system and its change. We seek a Post Doctor in Physical Oceanography to address knowledge gaps related to fine-scale ocean features/variability as a means to understand vertical mixing and ventilation pathways and water mass transformation in the upper ocean of the eddy rich ocean south of Africa. These processes may also be related to heat and carbon fluxes across the air-sea interface, and beyond the base of the mixed layer. The Post Doc will use a combination of existing field data (primarily from autonomous platforms), new observations, to be collected during upcoming expeditions, and existing and new model simulations. Auxiliary reanalysis data and satellite-based products, including recently attained SWOT satellite data, are available to be used. The candidate will contribute primarily to two projects: the ERC Synergy project ?WHIRLS? (The impact of ocean fine scale whirls on climate and ecosystems) and the NSF project ?QUICCHE? (QUantifying Interocean fluxes in the Cape Cauldron Hotspot of Eddy kinetic energy). These projects have a focus area spanning the Agulhas Current System and Cape Basin south of Africa. The Post Doc will assist in the preparation of observational strategies for field work commencing in 2025. This includes the use of high-resolution model output to prepare field work strategies. There is the opportunity to participate in the kickoff meeting of the ERC WHIRLS project in early June, helping to design and plan field experiments, participate on research voyages and field experiment execution. There will also be an expectation to learn how ocean autonomous platforms function and are piloted (e.g., Seaglider, Sailbuoy, and Wave Glider). Candidates that have experience in bio-physical interactions or biogeochmical processes in oceanography are also encouraged to apply. Duties As a Post Doctoral Fellow at the Department of Marine Sciences, University of Gothenburg, the candidate will be expected to fulfill responsibilities that include: * Produce peer-reviewed publications of sufficient quantity and quality on the research topic and present findings at appropriate scientific conferences. * Participate in research cruises that may be of weeks to months in duration in order to collect observations and/or deploy equipment. * Prepare research proposals for funding on the related science topics. * Participate and contribute to the activities of the oceanography subject and colleagues at the Department of Marine Sciences. * Skill sharing between candidate and research group, and vice versa. * There may be possibilities for the candidate to supervise MSc and PhD students in the related field. * Assisting in teaching activities at times in Oceanography or Marine Sciences.

Our previous work has demonstrated the utility of using neural networks to improve ad-hoc components of the existing ocean surface boundary layer mixing parameterization in the GFDL ocean climate model (https://dx.doi.org/10.1029/2023MS003890). The new research will build on this work, specifically devoted to further improving other poorly constrained processes with the aid of a set of Large Eddy Simulations and other higher-order turbulence closure methods. This work will involverunning new simulations to generate training data, using Machine Learning techniques to infer modifications to the mixing parameterizations, implementing the scheme in a global circulation model (MOM6), and evaluating the new parameterization within a global-scale climate model. The work is part of a larger project, M2LInES, covering eleven institutions. The overall goal is to reduce climate model biases at the air-sea/ice interface by improving subgrid physics in the ocean, sea ice and atmosphere components ofexisting coarse (?? to 1?) resolution IPCC-class climate models, and their coupling, using machine learning. The postdoc will be expected to collaborate with other postdocs at Princeton and with other members of the M2LInES project across multiple institutions. In addition to a quantitative background, the selected candidates will ideally have one or more of the following attributes: a) a background in physical oceanography, or machine learning, or a closely related field; b) experience with ocean-circulation or climate models, or turbulence closure parameterizations; and c) experience, or demonstrated interest, in machine learning. Candidates must have a Ph.D. and preferably in oceanography, geophysical fluid dynamics, computer science, or a closely related field. The term of appointment is based on rank. Positions at the postdoctoral rank are for one year with the possibility of renewal pending satisfactory performance and continued funding; those hired at more senior ranks may have multi-year appointments.

The goal is to demonstrate the successful use of machine learned parameterizations of unresolved processes that will reduce biases in realistic ocean circulation models and climate models. The research entails implementation of existing trained parameterizations, development of new parameterizations, and assessment of ocean and climate simulations, and run-tme training of networks. These will be implemented and evaluated in newer versions of the global circulation model OM4, the climate model CM4, and the ocean code MOM6.

The proposed project will constrain the sub-meter-scale details of reservoir heterogeneity of potential syn- and/or post-rift clastic CO2 reservoirs in the Jeanne d?Arc Basin as part of an effort to develop realistic reservoir models. The candidate will develop a comprehensive understanding of stratal architecture of clastic reservoirs offshore Newfoundland, including targets of terrestrial, shallow marine, and submarine paleoenvironments. Where possible, core, cuttings, well log data, and seismic constraints will be used to assess and define paleoenvironments and the distribution of key facies architectures (e.g., channels, lobes). As the size of these features is below the scale of seismic resolution, but nonetheless important for understanding reservoir heterogeneity and connectivity, the candidate will seek out and study analogue outcrops of similar age, basin setting, and paleoenvironment to develop 3D models of facies architecture. They will then interpret these architectures with respect to the geomorphic evolution of macroforms, and link facies architecture to sedimentary processes as a way to build predictive reservoir models of analogous CO2 storage targets in the subsurface of the Grand Banks. The results will serve as important input constraints of sub-seismic reservoir net-to-gross volumes, reservoir heterogeneity and connectivity for static and dynamic CO2 storage reservoir models in the Jeanne d?Arc Basin, developed in collaboration with geophysicists and reservoir engineers at Memorial University. The candidate will also provide oversight and/or conduct represented core sampling from subsurface targets and/or outcrop analogues for reservoir simulation at the EOR Lab at Memorial University. The candidate will also develop detailed 3D facies architectural models that will advance the study of clastic sedimentary environments and serve as a template for analogous reservoirs globally. A significant scientific contribution will be understanding how the studied sedimentary systems adapt geomorphologically to tectonic deformation, climate change, and sea level variations. The ideal candidate will have completed an MSc focused on clastic sedimentology, and have experience logging core, outcrop, and in petrographic examination of clastic rocks. Experience with downhole petrophysical data, seismic interpretation, Petrel software, and drone piloting are considered significant assets. Interested applicants should email Dr. David Lowe at dlowe at mun.ca and include a link to download their CV, letter of interest, and any relevant publications.

This project aims to develop a novel deep learning framework that leverages the power of causality to emulate complex atmospheric processes. This involves: - Generating and utilizing high-fidelity training data from Large Eddy Simulation (LES) models. - Enhancing model performance and computational efficiency, with a focus on enhancing GPU functionality in an HPC environment. - Applying your deep learning model within a superparameterization framework to improve largescale climate projections. By integrating causally-informed deep learning with LES model training data, we seek to emulate high-resolution atmospheric processes at a fraction of the computational cost. This approach not only enhances model performance via the potential to generate accurate high-resolution simulation data quickly, but it also offers a scalable solution to improve reliable climate projections, particularly in models that superparameterize subgrid with LES. That is, climate models must represent small scale phenomena which their coarse spatial grids cannot explicitly resolve with necessary approximations. Historically, this is done via formulaic mathematical functions as parameterizations. Some newer models instead represent these processes by embedding small area high-resolution LES models within the coarse grid to gain physical accuracy at exceptional cost. By emulating the LES, we intend to capture the physical gains of high-resolution models at a fraction of the computational cost, a potentially pioneering step towards more accurate and computationally feasible climate modelling. _________________________________ Dr Todd R Jones, BSc MSc PhD AFHEA Lecturer in Computer Science University of Reading Polly Vacher Building, Room 149 +44 (0)118 378 3187 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

At present, understanding of the dust DRE is so limited that not even the sign of the DRE at the top of the atmosphere is known. However, new measurements from the Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) instrument, which is currently flying onboard the International Space Station, have the potential to greatly improve understanding of the dust DRE and dust radiative feedbacks. This research will focus on dust emitted from ephemeral lakes. Despite ephemeral lakes being some of the most active and rapidly changing dust sources on Earth, dust from these sources is understudied. We will conduct this research across a variety of scales using observations, mesoscale modeling, and global climate modeling. The successful candidate will collaborate with project Co-Investigators Prof. Will Porter at UC Riverside and Dr. Paul Ginoux at the NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory. *As a key member of our team, you will:*? Use EMIT data and field measurements to quantify the dust DRE over a field site in southeastern California. ? Use the Weather Forecasting and Research with Chemistry model to explore the consequences of a drying lake in Southern California on the regional weather and climate. ? Use the NOAA GFDL-AM4 to estimate current and possible future contributions of ephemeral lake dust to global dust loading and the dust DRE at the global scale. *Specific Qualifications:*? Expertise in aerosols, mesoscale processes, and/or climate dynamics. ? Experience or a strong interest in using weather and climate models like WRF or GFDL-AM4. ? Skill in analyzing weather/climate model output. *Position 2: Studying the Emission, Transport, and Deposition of Large Dust Particles* The goal of this research is to improve understanding of the emission, transport, and deposition of desert dust, with a focus on large particles (i.e., with diameters greater than 20 microns). These particles are ubiquitous in Earth?s atmosphere, yet the governing physical processes are poorly understood. We will address this problem by generating novel measurements during dust storms in a desert region of southeastern California, and by developing idealized models of dust emission, transport and deposition that can be used to interpret these measurements. The successful candidate will collaborate with project Co-Investigators Profs. Jasper Kok and Marcelo Chamecki at UCLA. *As a key member of our team, you will:*? Participate in fieldwork planning and measurement method development. ? Work with, or lead, a team to generate new measurements of dust and meteorology in dust storms. ? Conduct analysis of measurements and assist in permanent archiving of all new data. ? Work with the project Co-Is to Develop idealized models of particle transport and deposition that can then be used to interpret the measurements. ? Work with the project Co-Is to revise theory describing dust emission based on the new measurements. *Specific Qualifications:*? Expertise in aerosols and/or boundary layer processes. ? Experience or a strong interest in conducting fieldwork. ? Experience or a strong interest in analyzing observational data. *Position 3: Evaluating the Meteorology of Dust Emission in Climate Models*The goal of this research is to improve understanding of the role that meteorological processes that are typically unresolved in global climate models play in shaping the global dust cycle. We aim to utilize the Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS) along with a new and offline dust emission model to estimate the contribution of haboobs, downslope windstorms, valley flow, and other mesoscale processes, to the global patterns of dust emission. These data can in-turn be utilized to force the patterns of dust emission in the Community Earth System Model (CESM) to examine the contribution of unresolved processes to dust transport and deposition, and dust direct and indirect radiative effects. The successful candidate will collaborate with project collaborator Falko Judt at NCAR. *As a key member of our team, you will:*? Generate new?and examine output from existing?simulations with MPAS. ? Evaluate the effects of model resolution and convective parameterization on the global patterns of dust emission. ? Develop and test a parameterization to correct related biases in subgrid-scale surface wind speeds in CESM. ? Use a modified version of CESM to investigate the potential contribution of unresolved orography and convective downdrafts to the global dust cycle. *Specific Qualifications:*? Expertise in aerosols, mesoscale processes, and/or climate dynamics. ? Experience or a strong interest in using global weather/climate models like CESM or MPAS. ? Skill in analyzing weather/climate model output. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Please find the detailed job announcement and instructions of how to apply at https://lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jobID:710873/ Feel free to pass on the information to any potential candidates. The closing date for applications is 15 April 2024. Best wishes, Andreas Subject description A doctoral student position in Geophysics is hereby announced at Lund University (LU), Sweden. The PhD position will be part of the ERC project " Core dynamics on millennial timescales (PALEOCORE)". In this project we will use new models of how Earth's magnetic field has varied through time, based on geological and archeological data, to study ancient analogues of the present-day geomagnetic field and reveal the underlying processes within the (hidden) liquid core of our planet. Age uncertainties of paleo-data are one of the main challenges with this project and a fundamental challenge for paleo-reconstructions in general. To overcome the issue, we will use novel modelling techniques whereby the slowly varying morphology of the geomagnetic field, which we are trying to recover, is simultaneously used to synchronize the different datasets in time. The methods and results from this project will not only be of benefit for our understanding of the geomagnetic field but will also provide important geochronological constraints that are necessary to study, for example, leads and lags in paleoclimate. Work duties The PhD research will primarily focus on palaomagnetic analyses (including lab measurements and modelling) of previously collected sediment cores from Kerguelen and South Georgia Islands. The new data will be important for the construction of a new generation of global geomagnetic field models, developed in parallel. The PhD student will be part of a larger research team here in Lund and the project will also involve extensive exchanges with associated research teams in Oregon, USA, and Bergen, Norway. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Interested applicants can contact Helene Angot (in copy) and me to apply. Or apply directly online at this link. Thanks! Jennie Open position: Postdoctoral Researcher in atmospheric microplastics (MP) modeling Activities: Applications are invited for a 18-month postdoctoral position starting between March 2024 and July 2024 as part of the (Emission, atmospheric transport and deposition of microplastics ?C ATMO- PLASTIC) ANR project based at IGE (Institut des G??osciences de l'Environnement, https://www.ige- grenoble.fr) in Grenoble, France. Research will focus on developing a 3D chemical transport model of atmospheric microplastics at the global scale and supporting observational analysis using trajectory modeling. This work will be conducted in close collaboration with observers within the ATMO-PLASTIC project to provide insight into the sources of MP aerosols and their fate globally. In collaboration with the team, the aim is to deliver a new description of MP aerosols globally. Microplastics (MP) are an emerging contaminant, with significant levels found from Oceans to remote terrestrial locations and potential (in)direct effects on ecosystem health. The quantity of MP polluting the terrestrial environment is unknown, with knowledge gaps in the global MP mass balance and understanding how MP are transported to terrestrial ecosystems. The ATMO-PLASTIC project will therefore investigate the role of the atmosphere in global MP cycling. This postdoc focuses on using atmospheric modeling with the GEOS-Chem model (https://geos- chem.seas.harvard.edu/) to develop a novel description of atmospheric MP emissions, cycling, atmospheric transport, and deposition. In addition, aerosol filters samples of atmospheric MP have been collected and are being analyzed for MP content at a global scale. This postdoctoral position will also contribute to understanding the MP aerosols that are collected on filters using trajectory modeling. ATMO-PLASTIC project data will be crucial in calibrating atmospheric transport models of global MP emission, transport and deposition. Such models are necessary to estimate the global impact of MP on ecosystem and human health. Skills ?? Ph.D. in atmospheric aerosols, atmospheric chemistry, climate sciences, or related field ?? Knowledge about earth and/or atmospheric modeling ?? Knowledge of microplastics ?? Experience with HPC and supercomputing environments ?? Experience with Unix and Fortran ?? Knowledge of NetCDF encoding and related data analysis tools (cdo, nco) ?? Programming skill : scripting and visualization (e.g. python) ?? Excellent skills in written and spoken English ?? Collaborative spirit and communication skill ?? Ability to work in a fast paced, international, team oriented environment Ability to travel to workshops and meetings, including visits to Toulouse for collaborative work with the team may be required.

Title: QUANTIFIcation of the rolE of aerosol-clouD interactions in Arctic climate (QUANTIFIED) Scientific Context: The Arctic is experiencing rapid warming, with temperatures rising four times faster than the global average. Sea ice decline, a reliable indicator of climate change, underscores the urgency of understanding Arctic atmospheric dynamics. Aerosols, though mitigating some warming effects, remain a significant uncertainty in climate projections, particularly in the Arctic. Our project aims to address this gap by integrating satellite observations and modeling techniques, focusing on aerosol-cloud interactions in the Arctic using the Weather Research and Forecasting model with Chemistry (WRF-Chem). Host Institutes: This position is a joint position and can be located at LATMOS and/or IGE depending on the preference of the candidate with regular visits between the two labs. ? LATMOS: The Atmospheres and Space Observations Laboratory is a joint research unit specializing in the study of the physico-chemical processes governing the Earth's and planetary atmospheres and their interfaces with the surface, the ocean and the interplanetary environment. The team involved in this project is located at Pierre et Marie Curie Campus of Sorbonne Universite?. ? IGE: Institute of Environmental Geosciences is a joint research unit of the CNRS, Grenoble Alpes University, INRAE, Grenoble INP and IRD, the Institute of Environmental Geosciences (IGE). IGE conducts research on climate, the pollution of our planet and environmental risks, particularly in regions where societal and environmental issues are most prevalent : the polar regions, the intertropical zone, and mountain regions. The team involved in this project is located on the Campus of Universite? Grenoble Alpes. Objectives: The primary objective of QUANTIFIED is to determine whether Arctic aerosols contribute to warming or cooling compared to pre-industrial levels. Specific objectives include characterizing aerosol and cloud properties using satellite observations, integrating aerosol and cloud physics into WRF-Chem, validating model simulations, quantifying direct and indirect aerosol effects on regional Arctic climate, and fostering collaboration to enhance understanding of Arctic aerosol-cloud interactions. Scientific Methodology: Our approach combines satellite observations and modeling to assess aerosol-cloud interactions. We aim to develop methods for constraining aerosol forcing in the Arctic, integrating observational data to validate model simulations. This iterative process will involve close collaboration between modeling and observation teams, leading to a comprehensive understanding of Arctic aerosol-cloud interactions. Added Value of International Cooperation: Our collaboration between Imperial College London and CNRS offers diverse expertise and resources, enhancing the project's scope and impact. This international cooperation strengthens research outcomes and facilitates knowledge exchange, fostering a multidisciplinary approach to Arctic climate science. Plan for Engaging PhD Students: PhD students will receive joint supervision, offering cross-training in modeling and satellite observations. We prioritize integrated research, data-model integration, hands-on training, and open science principles. Regular meetings and research exchanges ensure effective collaboration and skill development. Planned Activities: Activities include conducting research using modeling, participation in international conferences and project meetings. International collaboration: This work will be done in collaboration with researchers focusing on aerosols and clouds within the international team of the CERTAINTY project (https://certainty-aci.eu/). Position Funding: This open position is 100% funded by CNRS. The PhD student will work at LATMOS (Paris), IGE (Grenoble), or both with visits to Imperial College London and our European Partners within the CERTAINTY project. Requirements: A second year masters degree (M2) in atmospheric dynamics, atmospheric chemistry, model development, numerical simulations of the Earth system, or similar.

Message-ID: Hello all ? Please pass along to all interested parties, The National Park Foundation (NPF) and National Park Service (NPS) have extended the application period for one post-doc fellowship position within the Scientists in Parks (SIP) Fellowship Program. This fellowship is investigating mangrove peat and sea level rise. If interested, please contact Kevin_R_Whelan at nps.gov More specific information on the project can be found below. Can Biscayne National Park?s mangrove forest keep up with Sea Level Rise? Project Abstract and Purpose: Biscayne National Park (BISC) is one of the largest marine parks in the NPS and mangroves are its dominant terrestrial community. Mangroves are supported by the accumulation of peat soil over time, which helps counter the effects of sea level rise (SLR). South Florida has low elevation and is ground zero for SLR, which is estimated at 1.02 ft per 100 years in Biscayne Bay. Historically, mangrove peat development on the main shoreline has been 4 ft, and 15 ft on offshore islands. Previous urban development and current SLR mitigating infrastructure projects, maybe affecting mangrove peat soil accumulation. A massive restoration project is currently being implemented; understanding how this restoration action is affecting peat accumulation is critically important, especially with the current acceleration in SLR. There is a need to understand what mechanisms support mangrove peat development, what management actions are exasperating or supporting it, and what areas have been impacted the greatest. This project?s finding can directly aid this restoration effort. We propose to link landscape level change (using aerial imagery) in mangrove forest distribution to variation in peat composition and soil elevation across the region, then determine the peat development mechanisms at these locations. The scope of this study includes BISC and surrounding mangrove areas and is not a topic that can be addressed by current park staff. Since mangroves are ubiquitous in tropical settings worldwide, provide many ecosystem services, and are being squeezed by urban development, this information will be relevant on a global scale. Investigation Scope: We propose to link landscape level change or stability (using aerial imagery) in mangrove forest distribution to variation in peat composition and soil elevation, and then use this information to determine the primary peat development mechanisms at these locations. To accomplish our objectives, we will link historical maps to develop a time series of landscape changes in Biscayne Bay mangrove distribution. These maps include the 1928 map, the 1943 and 1967 Davis maps, the 1999 Welch vegetation map, the 2005 Whelan vegetation map, and 2023 NAIP imagery. Once unchanged and changed mangrove areas have been identified (10 sites each), we will determine the mangrove peat elevation and current accretion rates (feldspar marker horizons), and measure past accretion rates by dating soil cores (Lead 210 (210Pb) and Cesium 137 (137Cs)). The 210Pb ages soils over the past 75-100 years at 22-year intervals. The 137Cs model is used to identify the peak in deposition of Cesium that occurred in 1963, which will generate a 60-year time stamp in the core. We will determine soil core composition, postulate the mechanisms for peat development, and determine if they have changed over time. We will compare changes in peat elevation and accretion rates to landscape level changes to understand how the peat development mechanism may have been altered. Two of the unchanged sites will be at 2 NPS long term soil monitoring stations. Kevin R. T.
