Postdoctoral Researcher On Land-use/land-cover
hace 4 días
**Context And Mission
This position will be hosted in the Climate Variability and Change (CVC) Group within BSC's Earth Science Department. The CVC Group undertakes fundamental research to (1) understand climate variability and change, including for climate extremes, (2) investigate global biogeochemical dynamics, and the effectiveness and impacts of carbon removal technologies to mitigate climate change, (3) develop new Earth System modeling capabilities, and (4) improve our ability to forecast the climate variations from one month to multiple decades into the future, both at global and regional scales.
The offered position will contribute to the newly funded Horizon Europe project CERISE, building on results from the H2020 CONFESS project. CERISE will develop new and innovative coupled land-atmosphere data assimilation approaches and land initialisation techniques to pave the way for the next generations of the C3S (Copernicus Climate Change Service) reanalysis and seasonal prediction systems, and develop diagnostic tools to assess the extent to which these developments improve the physical consistency of model components and enable improved predictions.
**Key Duties
- Create and assess the time-varying land cover and LAI datasets
- Collaborate with colleagues and external partners in the integration of these datasets in the ECMWF pre-operational framework
- Lead the preparation of scientific publications, and present the research at scientific workshops and conferences
- Analyze the contributions of vegetation and land-use change to the global carbon cycle in the CVC group’s climate projections and near-time climate predictions
**Requirements
Education
- PhD in spatial modelling, land-use change, geography, or a related discipline
Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience
- Demonstrated experience in the analysis of geo-spatial and remote sensing data
- Proven ability to prepare and submit manuscripts to peer-reviewed scientific journals
