is a fundamental feature of atmospheric flow that transfers heat and momentum across scales. Turbulence constantly churns the atmosphere close to Earth’s surface, in the planetary boundary layer. In the stratosphere, turbulence is rarer, more intermittent
and more challenging to predict and model. </span><span style="color: rgb(47, 48, 48); font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We seek to understand how large-scale processes in the atmosphere control when and where bursts of stratospheric
turbulence occur. We also seek to evaluate the representation of stratospheric turbulence in global atmospheric models, where the mostly non-turbulent stratosphere is often modelled using equations built for the constantly churning boundary layer.</span></p>

will have the flexibility to shape their own project within the two broad project goals and to take an observations-based or modelling-based approach, or to combine the two. Likely tools for an observations-based approach include in-situ data from aircraft,
rockets and balloons. A modelling approach would likely focus on km-scale global s</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">imulations, especially from ICON and IFS, and the soon-to-be-released ERA6 reanalysis. </span></span><span style="color: rgb(47, 48, 48); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The
postdoctoral researcher will join a newly established group at MISU and will thus receive a high degree of individualized support.</span></p>
