<div class="">We are looking for a postdoctoral research assistant to carry out and interpret <b class="">high-resolution numerical model sensitivity experiments of the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean</b>. The postholder will work closely with UK and US researchers
within the NERC-NSF funded SNAP-DRAGON project to determine the causes of subpolar ocean variability.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The subpolar North Atlantic Ocean occupies a key role in regional and global climate, yet is poorly represented in climate models, which limits our confidence in predictions. SNAP-DRAGON will bring recent OSNAP and other observations together
with numerical models in a range of innovative ways to produce a step change in our understanding of the causes of subpolar ocean variability.</div>
<div class="">
<p class="">The successful candidate for this particular post will be responsible for setting up, running and analysing the results of high-resolution numerical model simulations using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model (MITgcm).
