FYI
> Postdoctoral positions in sea ice and climate dynamics at Scripps
> Institution of Oceanography
>
> One or more postdoctoral positions in sea ice and climate dynamics are
> available at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of
> California at San Diego. Applications are invited from candidates with
> a recent or expected Ph.D. in atmospheric dynamics, physical
> oceanography, climate science, applied mathematics, or a related
> field. Strong mathematical skills and experience with climate models
> is desirable.
>
> Successful applicants will be involved in research projects related to
> the observed expansion of the Southern Ocean sea ice cover during
> recent decades, the possibility of bifurcations during the evolution
> of the sea ice cover at either pole, methods to reduce the uncertainty
> in projections of Arctic sea ice retreat during the coming century,
> etc. The research will make use of mathematical and physical analyses
> of idealized models of the atmosphere-ocean-sea ice system and more
> comprehensive climate models, as well as drawing on observations. See
> http://eisenman.ucsd.edu for further details about the group, which
> also conducts research in paleoclimate and large-scale
> atmosphere/ocean circulations.
>
> The duration of the position is expected to be two years, contingent
> on progress during the first year and availability of funds.
> Interested candidates are welcome to contact Ian Eisenman
> (eisenman at ucsd.edu <mailto:eisenman at ucsd.edu>) with any questions.
> Applicants should email a curriculum vitae, contact information for
> three references, and a brief description of research interests to
> eisenman at ucsd.edu <mailto:eisenman at ucsd.edu>. Applications will be
> reviewed until the positions are filled.
