<h3 id="gmail-description">Position description</h3>
<div class="gmail-section"><p>A Postdoctoral
researcher with interests in coupled climate dynamics over the last
millennium is sought for a project studying the interactions of tropical
ocean basins (Pacific, Atlantic, Indian). The postdoc will have
responsibility for diagnosing metrics of climate variability across the
major ocean basins and determining the mechanisms for their interaction,
using output from the isotope-enabled Community Earth System Model
(iCESM) and other coupled climate models. The Postdoc will also have the
opportunity to design and perform sensitivity experiments with iCESM,
to isolate the isotopic signatures associated with particular aspects of
inter-basin climate dynamical interactions. The Postdoctoral scholar
will work closely with Dr. Samatha Stevenson-Michener. The project is
collaborative between UCSB and the University of Michigan, so the
position will also include opportunities for regular collaboration with
the Michigan PI and students working on the project.</p>
<p>This is a full-time position. Competitive salary and benefits
commensurate with experience. The initial appointment is for 2 years
with the potential for an additional year based on satisfactory
performance and funding availability.</p>
<p>The University is especially interested in candidates who can
contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community
through research, teaching, and service as appropriate to the position.</p>
