Postdoctoral position opening:
Physical Oceanography With Experience in Numerical Modelling. The Marine
Technology and Operational Oceanography Department is looking for two
year position in physical oceanography with experience in numerical
modelling (preferably ROMS). Successful candidate will be involved in
numerical studies related with circulation states in the western
Mediterranean (as a laboratory ocean) in order to establish the
relevance of the variability in the atmospheric forcing, mesoscale
dynamics and mean flow interactions.
Skills with data assimilation from different in situ and remote
platforms will be preferable.
The candidate will join a group working in,
1. Global change scenarios in the Mediterranean and their impact on
the inter-annual variability of the ecosystem.
2. High resolution observations at sub-basin scale (gliders and altimetry data).
3. Very high resolution numerical models at basin scale.
The candidate will participate in several projects identifying past (40
years re-analysis) and future (IPCC based) scenarios and addressing the
interactions resulting from the convergence between the in owing lighter
Modied Atlantic Water (MAW) and denser Mediterranean Water in the
Eastern Alboran area.
Moreover candidate will study the contribution of mesoscale and
sub-mesoscale interdisciplinary processes (reaching 1 km horizontal
resolution at basin scale) to 3d upper ocean inter-annual variability
specifically considering the relevance of eddy induced vertical motions
and open oceancoastal exchanges processes.
Interested applicants should send a CV together with 20 lines
description of future interests to:
jtintore@uib.es. Salary: range between 35.000 and 45.000 Euros/year
depending on previous experience and results obtained.
