PhD Position in Arctic Sea Ice–Greenland Ice Sheet Interactions at Utrecht University Utrecht University in Netherlands

Postdoc opportunity at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering. This postdoctoral project focuses on observations of aircraft contrails and on using those observations to evaluate and improve contrail prediction models . Contrails are described as a major contributor to aviation’s climate impact, and the research goal is to support contrail avoidance strategies by reducing uncertainty in model predictions of where contrails persist and how much impact th...

Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study observations of aircraft contrails and improve models that predict their persistence and climate impact. The project supports contrail avoidance strategies aimed at reducing aviation’s contribution to climate change. The researcher will combine observations from ground-based imagery, LIDAR measurements, and satellite imagery to create high-quality datasets for evaluating and improving contrail prediction mode...

The Department of Earth System Science at the University of California, Irvine is seeking a postdoctoral scholar for the ADVIce project, an NSF- and NERC-funded US-UK collaboration examining decadal variability in Arctic and Antarctic sea ice. The project combines observations, reconstructions, and Earth System Models to understand why sea ice has shown both rapid decline and unusual periods of slowdown or surge. The successful scholar will work in the Climate Modelling Lab at UCI under the supe...

The University of California, Irvine is seeking a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Earth System Science to work with Professor Henri Drake on a project focused on synchronous ice sheet–Earth system modeling. The research is centered on understanding how grounded ice sheets, floating ice shelves, icebergs, and sea ice interact with the ocean and influence global climate dynamics. The selected scholar will work with computational models to investigate two-way feedbacks in the cryosphere–o...

This postdoctoral project at SRON focuses on atmospheric emissions from biomass burning, using satellite observations together with atmospheric transport and inverse modeling. The successful candidate will work on improving understanding of fire emissions and their uncertainties by combining observations from TROPOMI on Sentinel-5P with modeling tools and complementary datasets. The research sits within the Earth Science Group (ESG) , a team of around 40 scientists, postdoctoral researchers, and...
