Job Reference: 478_24_ES_ADC_R2 Position: Post-doc researcher: Understanding atmospheric iron deposition in the ocean under present and future climates Closing Date: Tuesday, 01 October, 2024 About BSC: The Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the leading supercomputing center in Spain.
It houses MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, and is now hosting entity for EuroHPC JU, leading large-scale investments and HPC provision in Europe.
The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies to facilitate scientific progress.
BSC combines HPC service provision and RD into both computer and computational science (life, earth and engineering sciences) under one roof, and currently has over 1000 staff from 60 countries.
We promote Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, fostering an environment where each and every one of us is appreciated for who we are, regardless of our differences.
Female candidates are especially encouraged to apply.
Context And Mission: The Earth Sciences Department of the BSC (BSC-ES) carries out research into modelling and understanding the behavior of the Earth's system.
The Atmospheric Composition Group develops a modelling capability to combine atmospheric dynamical and chemical processes relevant at a wide range of spatial scales.
The group is looking for a postdoctoral fellow to improve our understanding of the natural and anthropogenic contributions to the soluble iron deposition in the ocean.
The researcher will have the opportunity to follow multiple training activities and will work in a highly collaborative environment.
Key Duties: Develop model components related to natural and anthropogenic sources of iron in Earth System models.
Design model experiments and run them in HPC systems.
Gather observations and evaluate model experiments.
Develop original research and analysis strategies.
Participate in collaborative projects with partner institutions.
Present results at international meetings.
Publish results in high-impact peer-reviewed journals.
Contribute ideas for new research projects.
Other duties include contributing to the development of common analysis tools; assisting in grant applications; and other duties as assigned.
Requirements: Education: Having a PhD in Atmospheric Chemistry, Environmental engineering, Meteorology, Physics, or related discipline.
Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience: Advanced understanding of atmospheric aerosol, particularly dust aerosol, and knowledge of the Earth System components and their interactions.
Experience in atmospheric, climate, chemistry or aerosol model developments.
Excellent computing skills in high-level computer languages (FORTRAN is valued).
Experience with UNIX/LINUX environments and with scripting languages (such as bash).
Experience with atmospheric science data formats (NetCDF) and with scientific software and tools (CDO, NCO, Python or R).
