Hi,<br>
<br>
We are seeking a postdoctoral fellow to investigate the mechanisms
that control the influx of Atlantic Water and its subsequent journey
through the Arctic Ocean. A main goal is to deepen our understanding
of Atlantic Water features at the marine-terminating glaciers on the
North Greenland margin, and how this may vary with a changing
climate. <br>
<br>
We seek candidates with a strong background in physical
oceanography, climate modelling (paleo or other), geoscience,
physics or applied mathematics with an interest Artic physical
oceanography. Proven experience in climate modelling, especially
ocean modelling, is highly desirable. An interest in big-picture
climate questions across time scales is an advantage and experience
with the EC-Earth model would be an additional merit. Likewise, it
is meriting to have documented experience in using High Performance
Computing infrastructure. <br>
<br>
This postdoctoral position is initially for two years and it part of
a large project funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation,
called THAWING, which explores the critical role that changes in the
properties and pathways of Atlantic Water reaching North Greenland
play in the near-term stability as well as the long-term evolution
of the North Greenland Ice Sheet, its marine cryosphere and sea-ice
ecosystems. As such, the project involves collaboration with other
postdoctoral scientists, PhD students, and faculty within the
Department of Geological Sciences and other scientists in the Bolin
Centre for Climate Research at Stockholm University. This initiative
provides a unique opportunity for you to engage with a broad
multi-disciplinary network and apply a variety of analysis methods
to state of the art ocean and climate models to contribute to our
understanding of the vulnerability of the Arctic ocean. <br>
<br>
The deadline is <b>15 May 2025</b> and the application requires
submission of a CV, short research plan, publications, and contact
details of 2-3 references. For details and how to apply, please see:
