“Waves to Weather”
To: <info-hymex at meteo.fr>

**************************************************************************************************************
* The interview process within the Collaborative Research Center “Waves to
Weather” has * *begun but applications are encouraged as long as the
positions are still open. Positions are **available immediately, but
starting dates are negotiable.*
**************************************************************************************************************

* Our ability to predict the weather up to a week or more ahead saves
our *societies
billions of Euros annually and protects human life and property. The great
challenge today is to identify the limits of weather predictability in
different situations and produce the best forecasts that are physically
possible.

The Collaborative Research Center “Waves to Weather” (CRC 165; W2W) is
conceived to meet this challenge and to deliver the underpinning science
urgently needed to pave the way towards a new generation of weather
forecasting systems.

The W2W consortium consists of:
- the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) in Munich
- the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität (JGU) in Mainz
- the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) in Karlsruhe
- the Technische Universität München (TUM)
- the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen
- the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität (RKU) in Heidelberg
- the Universität Hamburg (UHH).

The consortium features an innovative program for the development of early
career researchers within a strong network of experienced colleagues and
conducts an ambitious program to gradually enhance gender equality on all
career levels within the academic fields combined in W2W.

The following positions are available within the W2W consortium:
- 19 PhD positions: 18 PhD positions part-time (75%) at the salary grade
E13 TV-L and 1 PhD position full-time at the salary grade E13 TV-L
- 1 Postdoc position full-time at the salary grade E13 TV-L
- 2 scientific programmer positions full-time at the salary grade E13 TV-L

Applicants are asked to refer to one of the following topics:
* Project A1 “Multi-scale analysis of the evolution of forecast
uncertainty” (Supervisor: M. Riemer, JGU) (A1a)
* Project A1 “Multi-scale analysis of the evolution of forecast
uncertainty” (Supervisor: H. Tost, JGU) (A1b)
* Project A3 “Model error and uncertainty at the midlatitude tropopause”
Supervisors: A. Schäfler (DLR), M. Weissmann and G. Craig (LMU)
* Project A6 "Representing the evolution of forecast uncertainty"

* Project B6 "New data assimilation approaches to better predict tropical
convection" (Supervisors: P. Knippertz and C. Hoose, KIT) (B6)
* Project B8 "Role of uncertainty in ice microphysical processes in warm
conveyor belts" (Supervisors: C. Hoose and C. Grams, KIT) (B8)
* Project C2 "Statistical-dynamical forecasts of tropical rainfall"
(Supervisor: A. H. Fink, KIT) (C2)
* Project C3 "Predictability of tropical and hybrid cyclones over the North
Atlantic Ocean" (Supervisor: E. Schömer, JGU) (C3)
* Project C4 "Predictability of European heat waves" (Supervisor: V. Wirth,
JGU) (C4a)
* Project C5 "Statistical postprocessing of ensemble weather predictions"
(Supervisor: S. Lerch, KIT) (C5)
* Project C8 "Stratospheric influence on predictability of persistent
weather patterns" (Supervisor: J. Pinto, KIT) (C8a)
* Project C8 "Stratospheric influence on predictability of persistent
weather patterns" (Supervisor: H. Garny, DLR) (C8b)

Responsibilities and requirements depend on the project and are outlined on
the website* http://www.wavestoweather.de/positions/
<http://www.wavestoweather.de/positions/index.html>*. The positions are
fixed-term employment contracts. Contracts are time-limited according to
the Academic Fixed-Term Contract Law (WissZeitVG). The salary scale is TV-L
E13. Positions are available immediately, but the starting date is
negotiable. Please let us know when you are able to start.

Handicapped applicants will be given preference in case of equal
suitability. The W2W consortium strives to increase the proportion of women
in research and specifically encourages females to apply for these
positions.
