Regional ocean climate modeling at Princeton University
Regional ocean climate modeling at Princeton UniversityDue May 30th 2008 or until filled
We invite applications for a post-doctoral research position to i) lead in the development of algorithms for nested regional ocean climate models and ii) apply a nested model in a study of climate impact on coastal marine resources and bio-geochemistry. Particular project goals are to implement the GFDL coupled ocean model in a nested framework to enable regionally enhanced resolution of oceanographic processes critical to fisheries, hypoxia, and harmful algal blooms. The intent is to develop a general capability for nested modeling, and to apply the technology to a region of particular scientific interest within a global coupled climate model of IPCC caliber. Possible regions of interest include the North Atlantic Ocean with applications to Cod fisheries, the Scotia Sea and other regions of the Southern Ocean with applications to krill, and the Gulf of Mexico with questions of anoxia and hypoxia. The project will involve intimate development of model algorithms, as well as oceanographic research in the particular region of interest. The successful candidate will join a vigorous research environment and will be able to take advantage of a wide range of ongoing climate related activities both at Princeton University and at GFDL/NOAA. A Ph.D. in oceanography, biogeochemistry or atmospheric sciences is preferred.
The successful applicant will join the ocean modeling group to work with Prof. Jorge Sarmiento (http://www.princeton.edu/aos/people/faculty/jorge_sarmiento/), Charlie Stock and Alistair Adcroft (http://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/research/ocean/) in the AOS Program and Stephen Griffies at GFDL/NOAA. Applicants are asked to send a curriculum vitae, a statement of research experience and interests, and the names and contact information (phone, e-mail and address) of at least three references to (apval@splash.princeton.edu), Princeton University, AOS Program, Sayre Hall, 300 Forrestal Road, Princeton, NJ 08540-6654, USA. We will begin reviewing applications on May 19th, and continue until the position is filled. Princeton University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
