Subject:
Post-doctoral Scholar in ocean biogeochemical modeling at UC Irvine

Post-doctoral Scholar in ocean biogeochemical modeling. The Department of
Earth System Science at the University of California, Irvine seeks a
postdoctoral scholar to participate in research on ocean biogeochemical
cycles. The project involves the implementation of state of the art
Newton-Krylov computational techniques to global ocean biogeochemistry
models with the goal of producing fast offline models that are suitable for
performing extensive parameter sensitivity analyses. The successful
candidate will work closely with François Primeau and Keith Moore to
construct and test hypotheses regarding the role of the iron cycle,
particulate fluxes and re-mineralization profiles on the large-scale
distributions of biogeochemical tracers during past and present climates.
The position will be initially for 1 year, renewable up to 3 years, salary
commensurate with qualifications. The successful candidate should have a PhD
in oceanography or related fields. Experience with the development and
running 3D ocean general circulation models including biogeochemical modules
is desirable. Send applications including CV, a statement of research
interests and a list of three references to: Dr. François Primeau, Rm 3216
Croul Hall, Department of Earth System Science, University of California,
Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697-3100. Electronic submissions are preferred and can
be sent to fprimeau@uci.edu .
