About this position
Postdoctoral Researcher in Physical Oceanography at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
This vacancy is for a full-time, 3-year postdoctoral position in the Department of Marine Sciences and the Polar Gliders Research Group. The project is part of the ERC-funded SOFIA project (Southern Ocean fine-scale ocean dynamics and storm impacts on air-sea heat exchange).
The successful candidate will work on physical oceanography, Southern Ocean dynamics, satellite remote sensing, and ocean-climate interactions. The research combines new satellite observations with high-resolution ocean data from gliders, uncrewed surface vehicles, and ship-based measurements to investigate fine-scale ocean dynamics and vertical heat transport.
The post highlights an international and collaborative research environment in Gothenburg, Sweden, and mentions an opportunity to contribute to the planned “Pulse of the Weddell Sea” field campaign in late 2027.
Applicants should be prepared to work across satellite, observational, and oceanographic datasets. For more information and to apply, use the linked vacancy page. Questions can be sent to [email protected].
