https://geosci.uchicago.edu/postdoc-position-ai-weather-emulators-for-geoengineering/ The University of Chicago’s Climate Systems Engineering initiative ( David Keith) and Climate Extremes Theory and Data Group (PI: Pedram Hassanzadeh) are looking for a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to work on developing AI-based weather emulators and hybrid models for solar geoengineering including different climate conditions (CO2 levels, aerosol loading, etc.). A particular focus is on understanding changes in the characteristics of extreme weather events. The projects involves a multidisciplinary collaboration among experts in climate science, scientific ML, and climate modeling. Minimum qualifications: - Ph.D. in climate science, engineering, applied math or physics, or a related field. - Experience with training and using neural networks for physical systems. - Excellent communication and collaboration skills. Preferred qualifications: - Experience with climate data and models. - Experience with climate physics. Application Process: Interested candidates should submit a complete curriculum vitae that includes a list of publications and contact information of at least three references as well as a statement of past research and current interests (max 1 page) to *[email protected] <[email protected]>*. Please use the subject line "Postdoc application: Emulators". *Applications will be accepted until February 1, 2024. The start date is flexible but should be before July 1, 2024.* Outstanding applicants with more than 3 years of postdoc experience will be considered for appointment as research scientists.
