Job description
The Division of Atmospheric Science on the College of Wyoming (UW) seeks to fill two tenure-track Assistant Professor positions starting August 2023. One in all these two positions has a analysis deal with hydroclimate modelling. The profitable candidate for this place is predicted to have a powerful file of publications and promise of exterior funding success in modelling the function of precipitation within the local weather system. This place is one in every of 5 college positions from departments throughout campus that may kind the core of the brand new Middle for Regional Earth Programs Modeling, an interdisciplinary heart centered on water availability within the inside western United States in a altering local weather. The Middle will probably be created as a part of WyACT (Wyoming Anticipating Local weather Transitions). This place gives super alternatives to construct new and strengthen present collaborations with the Nationwide Middle for Atmospheric Analysis (NCAR) and to leverage Wyoming’s privileged entry to the NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputer Facility (NWSC).
The educational appointment and tenure house will probably be within the Division of Atmospheric Science, with a possibility for joint appointment with the UW Faculty of Computing. The profitable candidate is predicted to advise MS and PhD college students and post-doctoral students and train choose programs in atmospheric science. The Division of Atmospheric Science is a graduate-only program. It at the moment has 5 college members, a number of analysis scientists, and is on a development trajectory. The chosen college can have the chance to make use of and collaborate with customers of a number of services together with the department-owned and NSF-funded next-generation King Air analysis plane along with related cloud and precipitation instrumentation, a ground-based cellular lab, and the NWSC via a direct UW allocation of NWSC sources. The College has created a brand new Faculty of Computing that focuses on the applying of computing in and throughout all disciplines. The Faculty will probably be essentially interdisciplinary, utilizing translational analysis to leverage new and important computing applied sciences and approaches for advancing grand problem issues in science and society. The College of Wyoming is an Equal Alternative/Affirmative Motion Employer, and is dedicated to equality in hiring alternatives, and to range of its workforce and college students.
Minimal {Qualifications}
- PhD in atmospheric science or different related self-discipline and file of scholarship applicable for the rank of assistant professor;
- Experience in hydroclimate modeling, with a deal with how atmospheric processes at any scale management water sources;
- Curiosity and/or experience in educating on the graduate stage, particularly in areas equivalent to numerical climate prediction, atmospheric dynamics, and cloud and precipitation methods.
Desired {Qualifications}
- Curiosity and/or expertise in water within the Intermountain West;
- Robust curiosity in collaborating with college within the Division of Atmospheric Science;
- Curiosity and/or expertise in interdisciplinary analysis;
- Curiosity and/or experience in educating on the undergraduate graduate stage;
- Curiosity and/or experience in high-performance computing functions to check the local weather system.
- Dedication to range, fairness, and inclusion.
Why think about the chance?
- Participation in WyACT: the place gives a novel alternative to take part in an interdisciplinary mission that addresses essential water points within the Intermountain West. This can be a strategically vital mission for UW.
- Computational sources: a big fraction of the NWSC sources is reserved for UW researchers.
- Lab house: the Middle for Regional Earth Programs Modeling is slated to be housed in a brand new constructing on the UW campus.
- Location. Laramie is a superb place to reside and work. Laramie boasts a low price of dwelling, low property taxes, and no private state earnings tax. The realm gives unimaginable out of doors leisure alternatives, an eclectic downtown space, and an incredible public faculty system.
- Management. Led by President Edward Seidel, UW is present process vital reorganization initiatives designed to place it for management, together with in computational analysis, with the creation of a brand new Faculty of Computing
