Postdoctoral Fellowship in Regional Modelling of the Arctic at York University
The postdoctoral fellowship at York University will be in the area of high resolution regional modelling of the Arctic. Possible areas of research could involve ocean-ice-atmosphere interactions, precipitation, the impact of polynias on heating and water distribution, air-snow interactions, permafrost impacts, with a view to improving Arctic processes in the most recent version of the Canadian Regional Climate Model (CRCM5) which is based on the Canadian weather forecast model, GEM (Global Environmental Multiscale). The work will involve collaboration with modelling groups in Environment Canada and in Ouranos. York has a regional modelling program using GEM and WRF models with a focus on air quality in Ontario and regions. Recently it has expanded to address regional climate questions with a focus on changes in regional air quality. The fellow will work within the regional modelling group at York University in the Centre for Research in Earth and Space Science and also interact with the Arctic Science and Policy Group at York University.
This postdoctoral fellowship is funded jointly by the Ontario Ministry of Research & Innovation and York University. Salary per annum will be $50,000 plus benefits, and duration will be two years. The successful applicant is expected to complete his/her Ph.D. no later than six months after beginning the fellowship.
Applicants should submit a letter describing their relevant research, experiences and interests, a curriculum vitae, pertinent reprints, and arrange to have three letters of reference sent to Prof. John McConnell, Department of Earth and Space Science and Engineering, York University, 4700 Keele Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M3J 1P3; phone: (416) 736-2100 x 77709, fax: 416-736-5817 , E mail: jcmcc@yorku.ca
