Postdoctoral Position in Regional Climate Modeling at Rutgers University
The Center for Environmental Prediction and the Department of
Environmental Sciences, Rutgers University, are seeking to hire a postdoctoral
research associate. The candidate will join a team of climate and hydrologic
modelers (Alan Robock, Ying Fan Reinfelder, Christopher Weaver) in an
NSF-funded research project to study coupled climatic and hydrologic changes at
the seasonal to interannual scales over the North American continent, and the
role humans play in this complex system. The candidate will be responsible for
expanding and improving our recently-developed fully coupled regional
climate-hydrology model (RAMS-Hydrology), including adding cold-season
processes. The ideal candidate must have experience in mesoscale modeling with
RAMS or a similar model, such as MM5 or WRF, and interest in GCM modeling will
be a plus.
The position is for one year, renewable for another year with
satisfactory progress. The candidate must have a recent Ph.D. in meteorology,
hydrology, or a related science, be able to write and speak well in English,
and be familiar with UNIX, FORTRAN, GrADS, HTML, and other software tools. The
candidates will be expected to conduct collaborative research, and to
contribute fully to the direction of the research program here.
The position will be in the Center for Environmental Prediction in the
Department of Environmental Sciences at Rutgers University in New Brunswick,
New Jersey. The candidate will join a growing group in atmospheric and
hydrologic sciences, with links to the nearby NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
Laboratory and NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. The candidate will be
appointed at Rutgers, which offers an excellent benefit package to its
employees. Salary will be commensurate with experience and position.
Consideration of applications will begin April 1, 2005, and candidates will be
considered until the position is filled.
To apply, please send electronically (as pdf, Word, or postscript
files) a resume, statement of research interests, abstract of your Ph.D.
dissertation, and the names, addresses, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses of
three references to:
