Résumé du poste

Météo-France, the public expert in weather and climate, invites applications for a research position with the CNRM in Lannion. You will contribute to advancing radiative transfer simulations, extending RTTOV capabilities and data-rescue activities for historical satellite observations.

Under supervision of the project lead, you will collaborate with international partners, disseminate results through consortium meetings and peer-reviewed journals, and benefit from flexible hours, teleworking and

Responsabilités

• Assessing the impact of historical atmospheric CO₂ concentrations on radiative transfer simulations and their agreement with available observations.
• Investigating the extension of atmospheric profiles to higher altitudes in order to accurately represent the sensitivity of selected instruments to the upper stratosphere and mesosphere.
• Characterizing historical instruments and refining their representation in radiative transfer models, with a particular focus on gas correlation spectroscopy instruments.
• Developing and implementing new simulation capabilities within the RTTOV radiative transfer model.
• Evaluating RTTOV simulations for selected meteorological and atmospheric case studies.
• Reporting progress and results to the project consortium and contributing to project deliverables.
• Disseminating scientific results through presentations at consortium meetings and publication in peer-reviewed journals.
