Vacancies September 1 2024

 Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Physics

Application Deadline: 2 September 2024
 
Applications are invited for five Lecturer or Senior Lecturer positions within the Department of Physics at Imperial College. The positions are permanent academic appointments. The Department is structured into five research communities that drive new research directions, one of which is Climate. In this call, climate-related applications are particularly welcome in the research area of atmospheric dynamics of extreme weather.

Assistant Professor in Atmospheric Dynamics

Application Deadline: Priority given to applications received by 1 November 2024

 
The Department of Atmospheric and Climate Science at the University of Washington (UW) invites applications for a full-time, 9-month (100% FTE), tenure-track Assistant Professor faculty position. The proposed starting date of employment is September 16, 2025. It is anticipated that the successful candidate will strengthen the Department’s research and teaching portfolio in atmospheric dynamics, including the study of weather and climate phenomena. The method of study can include using observations, modeling, and/or theory. Areas of emphasis include, but are not limited to, tropical meteorology, dynamics of convective systems, regional and global-scale climate variability, extreme events, or predictability on sub-seasonal to decadal time scales.

 

Two Research Faculty Positions in Hydrology

Application Deadline: Open until filled

The Atmospheric Sciences Research Center (ASRC) of the University at Albany, State University of New York, seeks to hire two permanent-eligible (equivalent to tenure track) Research Faculty. Areas of particular interest include hydrology, radar meteorology, and renewable energy (especially solar energy); however, outstanding candidates from other areas of atmospheric science will also be considered.

 Postdoctoral Research Scientist for Arctic Climate Study

Deadline: Open until filled

The Center for Climate Systems Research (CCSR) in the Climate School of Columbia University in New York invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist position to conduct research on Arctic Climate Study. The successful candidate will use observational data and climate modeling to study the interactions between radiation, clouds, sea ice, and the ocean in the polar climate system, with a focus on investigating different feedbacks (e.g., ice albedo feedback and cloud feedback) to understand the mechanism for the Arctic amplification.
 

Postdoctoral Researcher Opportunity on Clouds and Precipitation using EarthCARE First-Light Observations

Application Deadline: Open until filled

 
Expected to be launched in May 2024, the joint ESA/JAXA Earth Cloud, Aerosol and Radiation Explorer (EarthCARE) mission is the largest and most complex Earth Explorer to date. It will advance our understanding of the role that clouds and aerosols play in reflecting incident solar radiation back into space and trapping infrared radiation emitted from Earth’s surface. We seek a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to analyze the EarthCARE first-light observations of clouds and precipitation to evaluate large-scale models using a suite of forward and inverse modeling methods. The position is expected to begin soon. Applications will continue to be considered until the position is filled.
Qualifications:
Ph.D. in meteorology, atmospheric science, or a closely related field
Demonstrated experience in understanding processes that control clouds and/or aerosol-cloud interactions
Clear and concise verbal and written communication and collaboration skills
Experience with remote sensing instrumentation for clouds and precipitation (e.g., cloud radar, passive or active satellite sensors)
Experience with instrument simulators
Experience with machine learning techniques
Strong programming skills, such as a familiarity with data analysis software (e.g., Python, IDL,MATLAB, FORTRAN)
Qualified and interested applications are invited to submit to both Prof. Ivy Tan (ivy.tan@mcgill.ca) and Prof. Pavlos Kollias (pavlos.kollias@mcgill.ca) the following:
A cover letter summarizing interest in the position as well as previous relevant experience and expertise
An up-to-date curriculum vitae
The contact information of three professional references
