Apologies for cross-posting.  Please forward to any potentially interested
people...

Professor Ryan Torn at the University at Albany is seeking a post-doctoral
researcher with interests in hurricane modeling and prediction. The
research is part of the NOAA Hurricane Forecast Improvement Project (HFIP)
and involves calculating the statistics of the difference between
observations and model forecasts (innovations) and the difference between
analyses and background forecasts (increments) over many cases.  This work
will be used to identify model biases within the Hurricane Analysis and
Forecasting System (HAFS), which is being developed as part of the NOAA
Unified Forecasting System.  This research will involve coordination and
collaboration with the HAFS data assimilation development team.

Candidates should hold a PhD in atmospheric science or related discipline,
conferred within the last three years, from a college or university
accredited by the U.S Dept. of Education or an internationally recognized
accrediting organization, have some experience using numerical weather
prediction model output, and have the ability to work independently.  Ideal
candidates would have some experience with model validation; however, data
assimilation experience is not required.  Applicants from underrepresented
background are especially encouraged to apply.

Terms of appointment are for one (1) year, renewable for one additional
year, subject to satisfactory performance.

Applicants are asked to submit electronically: (1) a curriculum vitae
(including a publication list), (2) the names of three individuals who can
provide a letter of reference and (3) a statement of professional interests
to Ryan Torn (rtorn at albany.edu).  The position will remain open until it is
filled.  Preference will be given to applications that are received before
15 November 2020.

Interested applicants are encouraged to contact Ryan Torn (rtorn at albany.edu)
to discuss the position.
