*Postdoctoral Associate in Modeling the Agricultural Response to Climate
Intervention*. The Department of Environmental Sciences of Rutgers
University invites applicants for the position of Postdoctoral
Associate. This is a grant-funded, non-tenure-earning position carrying
full benefits. The successful candidate will join a research group
investigating the impacts on climate and agriculture in response to
various proposed solar climate intervention schemes, also known as solar
radiation modification (SRM). The successful candidate will have
primary responsibility, in collaboration with other researchers at
Rutgers and the National Center for Atmospheric Research, for adding the
impacts of diffuse radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and ozone on
vegetation, including crops, and for improving the parameterization of
fires in CESM2, and then conducting general circulation model
simulations with it in response to different SRM schemes, in the context
of the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project. The candidate will
also have time to conduct independent research. Candidates must have a
Ph.D. in climate science, agricultural modeling, or a related field, and
a demonstrated background in climate modeling and agricultural
modeling. Applications will be favored that demonstrate experience with
CLM, CESM2, the National Center for Atmospheric Research computing
environment, the analysis of computer simulations of climate change in
response to climate intervention, and comparisons of crop model
responses to climate change.
