Job description
A postdoctoral place is accessible within the Division of Geological and Atmospheric Sciences at Iowa State College. The profitable candidate will work with Dr. Ian Williams on numerical modeling of moist convection and land-atmosphere interactions. The appointment is for one-year, with a risk of extension relying on accessible funding and job efficiency. Candidates with coaching in both atmospheric science or terrestrial ecology/land-surface modeling are inspired to use, however will need to have analysis expertise utilizing numerical fashions and scientific computing.
Relying on the profitable candidate’s background and pursuits, job obligations might embrace: Performing and analyzing experiments utilizing convection-allowing or LES configurations of regional/regionally-refined fashions (e.g., WRF); modeling historic and future local weather/land-use eventualities to know the consequences of land floor change on clouds and precipitation; and evaluating mannequin hindcasts in opposition to in-situ and remote-sensing observations to enhance sub-grid scale parameterization of water cycle processes in Earth system fashions.
Required Minimal {Qualifications}:
- PhD in atmospheric science or a intently associated scientific self-discipline.
Most well-liked {Qualifications}:
- Analysis expertise with related numerical modeling strategies and scientific computing
- Demonstrated publication file and robust communication abilities
- Expertise designing, operating, and decoding numerical mannequin experiments
- Analysis expertise in a number of science areas together with: boundary layer meteorology and turbulence, mesoscale meteorology, cloud physics, or terrestrial ecosystem science
- Expertise with advanced numerical modeling initiatives, similar to coupled Earth system mannequin elements (e.g., land-surface/carbon cycle fashions), or knowledge assimilation strategies
Proposed Begin Date:
September 1, 2022
Proposed Finish Date or Size of Time period:
August 31, 2023
