Postdoctoral Fellowship in aerosol-cloud-climate interactions (ref 228551)

The position has a focus on the relationship between aerosol forcing and Earth’s climate sensitivity. The project involves analysis of large-scale observational data sets and model simulations. The position has a preferred starting date no later than 1st of October 2022.

The postdoctoral fellow will be involved in an international collaborative effort to observationally constrain regional and global climate forcings, primarily those induced by aerosol-radiation and aerosol-cloud interactions, and the associated climate response. The postdoctoral fellow will contribute to this effort primarily through analysis of Earth System Model output (e.g. CMIP6) and selected observational data sets. The postdoctoral fellow will have the opportunity make extended visits to one or more international collaborators during the fellowship.

We envisage close collaboration between the Postdoc and the two PhD positions announced. The successful candidates will have the opportunity to participate in ground-based and airborne observations during field campaigns in the Arctic and the Tropics.

Candidates with relevant prior research experience will be given preference. A detailed project plan will be developed together with the successful candidates. The main purpose of the fellowship is to qualify researchers for work in higher academic positions within their disciplines.
