Postdoctoral position on the interactions among clouds, radation, and climate - UC Berkeley

A postdoctoral position on the interactions among clouds, radiation, and climate is available with the Department of Earth and Planetary Science at the University of California, Berkeley. This NSF and UCB-funded position focuses on the implications of cloud-scale radiative processes for climate change and climate variability. The postdoc will collaborate with other members of the NSF Science and Technology Center for Multiscale Modeling of Atmospheric Processes (CMMAP). Please see http://www.cmmap.org for a description of the Center. A Ph.D. in atmospheric sciences, physics, applied mathematics or a related discipline is required. Experience in numerical modeling and in complex data analysis is essential. Experience with radiative transfer codes, climate modeling, or atmospheric simulation is highly desirable. Background information about the research group is available on request.

Please send an email describing your research interests, a CV and three journal paper reprints in PDF, and a list of three references to Prof. William Collins (WDCollins@berkeley.edu). The initial appointment will be for one year starting at your earliest convenience, with the expectation of annual renewal for two additional years upon satisfactory performance. The University of California, Berkeley is an equal opportunity employer.
