Junior Scientist or Postdoctoral Research
Assistant in Marine Biogeochemical Modelling
[Job Opening
cod.12355
]
BOLOGNA - Italy | Deadline: May, 15th, 2022
The CMCC is taking into consideration the possibility to
hire a talented, motivated and proactive Junior
Scientist/Postdoctoral Research Assistant to work within
the Research Unit for Marine Biogeochemistry and Earth
System Modelling of the Ocean Modeling and Data
Assimilation (ODA) Division.
This job announcement is a public invitation to express
interest for the above mentioned CMCC Position.
The location is at the CMCC premises in Bologna, BO,
Italy.
The primary purpose of this position is to strengthen
our in-house modelling system based on the the
Biogeochemical Flux Model (
http://bfm-community.eu)
and its couplings to dynamic ocean models such as NEMO
and SHYFEM and our Earth System Model CMCC-ESM2. Some of
the current key developments include coastal processes,
polar biogeochemical processes including sea-ice
biogeochemistry and parametrisation of marine-based
negative emission pathways (nature-based and technology
based). The candidate is further expected to contribute
to the applications of our modelling system and analysis
of its simulations in the realms of global
biogeochemical cycles, mitigation and adaptation as well
as biodiversity and ecosystem services. These activities
require a solid base in geoscientific modelling,
in-depth knowledge of the scientific state of the art
and of the most recent developments in data analysis and
statistical methods (e.g. machine learning and
artificial intelligence).
The desired qualifications are:
