Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet Full time
Postdoctoral Fellow in Earth System Modelling

We are seeking a highly skilled Research Scientist to join our team as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the field of earth system modelling. This is an 18-month appointment, starting January 2025.

The ideal candidate should have experience in using the NCAR Community Earth System Model or a similar class of Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC) models. The primary goal of the project is to investigate simulated multiple equilibria of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) under modern climate conditions.

In addition to this, future transient CO2 simulations will be investigated under the same ocean model configurations used to simulate the modern climate, in order to assess the potential for future tipping points. The work will be supervised by Professors Guido Vetoretti and Markus Jochum.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Conduct research in the field of earth system modelling, including obligations related to publication and scientific communication
  • Collaborate with supervisors and colleagues to achieve project goals
  • Develop and maintain knowledge of relevant research methodologies and tools

The position may also include pedagogical training and performance of other duties as needed.

Terms of Employment:

The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff. Terms of appointment and payment accord to the agreement between the Ministry of Taxation and The Danish Confederation of Professional Associations on Academics in the State.

Negotiation for salary supplement is possible.

Requirements:
  • Diplomas (Master and PhD degree or equivalent)
  • Research plan – description of current and future research plans relating to the proposed position
  • Formal pedagogical training (If any)
  • Separate reprints of 2 particularly relevant papers

Estimated Salary: approximately €45,000 - €60,000 per year, depending on qualifications and experience.
