<p class="MsoNormal">The Rutgers University Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences seeks applications for two postdoctoral associate positions, starting Fall 2023, with interests in climate risk assessment and management.
<br>
<br>
The candidates will join the <strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:blue"><a href="https://earthscipol.net/"><span style="font-weight:normal">Rutgers University Earth System Science & Policy Lab (earthscipol.net)</span></a></span></strong>,
under the direction of Professor Robert Kopp, and its collaborators in the <b><a href="http://coastalhub.org/"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:blue;font-weight:normal">Megalopolitan Coastal Transformation Hub (MACH)</span></strong><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:blue;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none">,</span></strong></a>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are seeking candidates with strong background in climate change from a natural science, social science, economic or decision analysis perspective, who desire to expand their experience in a transdisciplinary research environment. Strong
grasp of statistics, strong coding skills (including experience in Python), and excellent organizational and communication skills are required.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Specific positions are described below. Contact Prof. Robert Kopp at

<br>
</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The incumbent in this position, which involves close collaboration with the NASA Sea-Level Change Team and the Climate Impact Lab, will work to integrate decision-making under uncertainty into the Climate Impact Lab’s model of sea-level
rise economics (DSCIM-Coastal). They will apply this model to value reductions in sea-level projection uncertainty associated with prospective Earth observation missions and improvements in climate modeling. The results are expected to inform the next NASA
Earth Science decadal survey. Background in climate economics and/or quantitative analysis of climate policy is particularly desirable. For more information or to apply:
