Arctic Aerosol-Cloud Modeling Researcher

CNRS; France; Sur place; EUR 35 000 - 50 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

The CNRS Institute of Environmental Geosciences (IGE) in Grenoble invites a postdoctoral researcher to develop and improve WRF-Chem simulations focusing on aerosol–cloud interactions in the Arctic. The role involves analyzing impacts on Arctic climate, reducing uncertainties in projections, and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams within the CERTAINTY project.

The postdoc will validate models using observational, satellite, and field data, optimize configurations for future climate

Qualifications

• Experience with WRF-Chem atmospheric modeling and aerosol–cloud interactions.
• Proficiency in Python for data analysis and visualization.
• Strong Unix/Linux skills including shell scripting and HPC workflow.
• Experience with MPI parallelization and job scheduling (Slurm/PBS).
• Knowledge of statistics for data analysis and model validation.

Responsabilités

• Develop and improve WRF-Chem simulations for aerosols and clouds in the Arctic.
• Analyze aerosol–cloud–climate interactions using simulation data.
• Validate models with observational, satellite, and field data.
• Investigate aerosol effects on cloud microphysics and climate feedbacks.
• Publish results and present at conferences; collaborate with interdisciplinary teams.
