PhD Student Position in Parameterizations of cloud ice microphysics in climate models
The Satellite Atmospheric Science group at Kiruna Space Campus is looking for a new PhD student. The goal of the PhD project is to investigate the impact of different parameterizations of cloud ice microphysics on climate predictions.
To apply, you must have a good or excellent Master or equivalent degree. You should also have traceable experience in atmospheric science, as well as a good background in physics and mathematics. Preferably, you should have experience in the development and/or utilization of state of the art climate models or in the parameterization of physical processes in climate models. Furthermore, you should have good English skills and good computer skills, including programming experience. Swedish skills will be considered an additional bonus. You should be capable of independent, original, and creative research work, but at the same time be a good team player.
Female candidates are particularly encouraged to apply, since we are aiming to increase the fraction of women in the group. We value diversity, so candidates belonging to minorities are particularly encouraged to apply.
As usual in Sweden, the PhD positions are for five years and are associated with a full-time position with a commensurate salary. The duties are 80% research and 20% teaching. We offer an open and friendly work environment with a strong focus on research. More information about the group, which belongs to the Department of Space Science of Lulea University of Technology, can be found on our websites http://www.sat.ltu.se (working group) and http://www.ltu.se/irv (department).
If you have questions about the general working conditions, please contact the head of the department Dr. Hans Weber (Hans.Weber(at)ltu.se, +46 920 492088). For science questions and questions about the working group, please contact Prof. Dr. Stefan Buehler (sbuehler(at)ltu.se, +46 980 7 9177).
Applications should preferably be prepared as a single pdf file and sent by email to registrator@ltu.se , with CC to sbuehler(at)ltu.se. The application should include a letter of motivation, a CV, telephone numbers of two references, and copies of relevant degree documents (Master, etc.). Letters of recommendation may be included, but are not mandatory. You may also send separately the pdf file of a recent publication.
