The Climate Dynamics Lab at Duke University is seeking 1 or 2 Postdoctoral Associates to work on coupled climate dynamics. The main goal of our lab is to understand the role of air-sea coupling in global climate change and variability by combining theory, observations, and climate modeling. Potential research projects include but are not limited to: (1) extratropical air-sea interactions related to atmospheric rivers, (2) ocean inter-basin interactions among the Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans. Each position will be awarded for 1 year with a flexible starting date and extended by 1-2 more years contingent on satisfactory performance. A PhD in physical oceanography, atmospheric science, or related fields is required. Modeling experience with general circulation models, preferably CESM or E3SM, is highly desirable.
Please apply at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/24736. Applications will be reviewed immediately, but the positions will remain open until filled. For questions, please contact Prof. Shineng Hu at shineng.hu@duke.edu.
