- Tuesday, 31 January, 2023**Reference**: 48_23_ES_ESS_RE1**Job title**: Urban air quality modelling (RE1)**About BSC**
- The Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the leading supercomputing center in Spain. It houses MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, and is a hosting member of the PRACE European distributed supercomputing infrastructure. The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies in order to facilitate scientific progress. BSC combines HPC service provision and R&D into both computer and computational science (life, earth and engineering sciences) under one roof, and currently has over 770 staff from 55 countries.
- Look at the BSC experience:

- BSC-CNS YouTube Channel
- Let's stay connected with BSC Folks
- We are particularly interested for this role in the strengths and lived experiences of women and underrepresented groups to help us avoid perpetuating biases and oversights in science and IT research.**Context And Mission**
- The Department of Earth Sciences of the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre-Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS), BSC-ES henceforth (bsc.es/earth-sciences) is one of the most active groups in air quality and atmospheric composition modeling, climate prediction and climate services in Europe. The department is currently composed of about 80 people, including scientists and technical and support staff, and is structured in four distinct but interacting research groups: Atmospheric Composition (AC), Climate Prediction, Earth System Services (ESS), and Computational Earth Sciences.- ESS group contributes to a variety of forecasting activities. The dust component of the NMMB-MONARCH runs operationally at the first WMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for Atmospheric Sand and Dust Forecast (i.e., the Barcelona Dust Forecast Center, BDFC), and contributes to multi-model ensemble forecasts both at the WMO Sand and Dust Storm Warning Advisory and Assessment System Regional Center (WMO SDS-WAS RC) for Northern Africa, Middle East and Europe, and the International Cooperative for Aerosol Prediction (ICAP). Both WMO Regional Centers are co-hosted by BSC and the Spanish Meteorological Agency (AEMET). The group also develops and maintains the CALIOPE air quality system (“CALIdad del aire Operacional Para España”), which provides high-resolution air quality forecasts over Europe and Spain using the in-house emission model HERMES. CALIOPE is currently based on the WRF and CMAQ systems, and its transition to using the NMMB-MONARCH is in progress.-
**Key Duties**
- Implementation and execution of data-fusion methods to improve atmospheric numerical models (e.g., CALIOPE and CALIOPE-Urban) in a High-Performance Computing environment.
- Interpret data and analyze model results, and prepare charts and reports of the results.
- Work together with atmospheric composition scientist and IT developers.
- Communicate scientific results within the Department, at international conferences, and write quality papers in scientific publications.

**Requirements**:

- Education
- Studying Physiscs or related disciplines.
- Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience
- Experience in air quality models and related datasets. 0-2 years
- Ability to work in a professional environment and within a multidisciplinary research team.
- Demonstrated verbal communication and technical presentation skills (English is a must).
- Additional Knowledge and Professional Experience
- Experience in data science, geostatistical algorithms, and geographic information systems (GIS). 0-2 years
- Competences
- Fluency in English.
- Programming skills (R or python)

**Conditions**
- The position will be located at BSC within the Earth Sciences Department
- We offer a full-time contract, a good working environment, a highly stimulating environment with state-of-the-art infrastructure, flexible working hours, extensive training plan, tickets restaurant, private health insurance, fully support to the relocation procedures
- Duration: Open-ended contract due to technical and scientific activities linked to the project and budget duration
- Starting date: 1/2/2023

**Applications procedure and process**- A full CV in English including contact details
- A Cover Letter with a statement of interest in English, including two contacts for further references - Applications without this document will not be considered
