Job description:
The Hans Ertel Centre for Weather Research (Hans-Ertel-Zentrum, HErZ, www.hans-ertel-zentrum.de ) carries out fundamental research to improve weather forecasting and climate monitoring in a network between Deutscher Wetterdienst and leading meteorological research institutions in Germany. The HErZ research group “ICON-SmART”, located at KIT, addresses the role of aerosols and atmospheric chemistry for the simulation of seasonal to decadal climate variability and change. To this end, the project will enhance the capabilities of the coupled composition, weather and climate modelling system ICON-ART (ICON, icosahedral nonhydrostatic model – developed by DWD, MPI-M and DKRZ with the atmospheric composition module ART, aerosols and reactive trace gases – developed at KIT, see www.icon-art.kit.edu ) for seamless seasonal to decadal predictions and climate projections in global to regional model configurations with ICON-Seamless-ART (ICON-SmART). A group of four postdoctoral/doctoral researchers deals with the coupling of ART to the land surface and ocean models, a comprehensive (tropospheric and stratospheric) chemistry scheme, scale-aware parameterizations and speed-up of process submodules with machine learning methods, and the evaluation of ICON-SmART.
To support this exciting project, we are looking for a research associate to
- Support the coordination of the project ICON-SmART: foster interactions between the postdoctoral and doctoral researchers within the project, KIT, Deutscher Wetterdienst and the other HErZ projects, organize meetings, contribute to project reporting and outreach
- Integrate new model developments in collaboration with other project contributors
- Implement and test additional model developments and applications e.g. on aerosol emission, aerosol dynamics or interaction with radiation and clouds, depending on the candidate’s expertise
- Contribute to and/or lead publications and conference contributions on ICON-SmART
This research center is part of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers. With more than 42,000 employees and an annual budget of over € 5 billion, the Helmholtz Association is Germany's largest scientific organisation.
