Job description:
<div>A 2-year postdoctoral researcher position in land surface modeling is available at NORCE Norwegian Research Centre AS, Climate, in Bergen, Norway. There is a possibility to become a permanent researcher after the 2-yr postdoc period. The main focus of
the work will be to improve our understandings on climate change interaction between land surface, particularly high latitude ecosystems, using the coupled framework of the state-of-the-art Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM). Main duties include but not
limited to 1) studying the feedback cycles of climate-land-atmosphere using the NorESM or the CMIP6 simulations and publish, 2) working together with the NorESM community to evaluate models with observational data, and 3) maintain and analyze the CLM/CTSM
in the framework of NorESM for the CMIP6 simulations and further NorESM development and testing. Prior experience with modeling, preferably with fully coupled ESMs, is necessary for this position. Applicants without sufficient modeling experience will not
be considered.</div>
