Postdoc Position - Statistical Downscaling for Heat & Health
Applications<br>
<div class="moz-forward-container"> <br>
<span class="linkified">Princeton University's Atmospheric and
Oceanic (AOS) Sciences Program, in cooperation with NOAA's
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), NOAA's Climate
Program Office (CPO), and NOAA's National Centers for
Environmental Information (NCEI), seeks applications for a
postdoctoral research scientist</span>. This position is based
at N<span class="linkified">OAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
Laboratory </span>/ Princeton University. The successful
candidate's project will be coordinated with GFDL's <span
class="linkified">Empirical Statistical Downscaling (ESD)
science team, </span>and will be directly relevant to public
health audiences' use of climate projections for decision-making.

<br>
We seek applicants with a Ph.D. or equivalent experience in
atmospheric, climate, or other physical or environmental sciences,
statistics, applied mathematics, or related disciplines.
Candidates keenly interested in developing actionable science that
transfers knowledge gained from climate models to health decision
makers are encouraged to apply. Candidates should be skilled in
the application of statistical methods, including uncertainty
analysis, and be familiar with North American climate. Programming
skills in R or Python are highly desirable, as are strong
communication skills. Other beneficial experiences include prior
work with downscaled multi-decadal climate projections and/or
machine learning methods, and interdisciplinary experience
bridging climate science with public health sector applications.<br>
<br>
Broadly speaking, this is an effort aiming to strengthen links
between the people who generate climate change projection data
products and those who use that info in decision-making relevant
applications -- in this case heat and health applications. Project
specifics will be determined by the candidate's experience and
alignment of project goals with NOAA priorities.<br>
<br>
This position is subject to Princeton University's background
check policy. Princeton University is an equal
opportunity/affirmative action employer, and all qualified
applicants will receive consideration for employment without
regard to age, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation,
