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...

About this position

The University of Washington’s Department of Atmospheric and Climate Science is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to investigate Southern Ocean climate dynamics, with a focus on the recent decline in Antarctic sea ice and warming of the Southern Ocean.

The project will examine the drivers of recent changes, their seasonal-to-decadal predictability, likely future decadal evolution, and the global climate implications of a declining Antarctic sea-ice cover and a warming Southern Ocean. The research will combine new climate-model simulations using the NCAR CESM suite with analysis of observational and model data.

The postdoctoral scholar will be advised by Professors Edward Blanchard-Wrigglesworth and Cecilia Bitz and will work in collaboration with researchers at the University of Washington, international partners in New Zealand, and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center in Barcelona, Spain. The role offers a mentored research environment intended to strengthen professional skills, research independence, and participation in the wider university community.

The position is based at the University of Washington in Seattle, within a collaborative atmospheric and climate science research environment in the Pacific Northwest.

Funding details

Full-time appointment at 100% FTE with an initial 12-month term, potentially renewable for one additional year based on funding and satisfactory performance. Base minimum salary is $6,681–$6,881 per month, commensurate with experience and qualifications or applicable prevailing-wage requirements. Employee benefits are provided.

What's required

Candidates must hold a PhD or foreign equivalent, or have completed all degree requirements by the appointment start date, and must have no more than three years of total postdoctoral experience at appointment. Desired qualifications include a PhD in atmospheric, ocean, climate science, or a related field; an excellent publication record; strong written and communication skills; experience with climate modeling and observational or reanalysis data analysis; and proficiency in programming languages such as Python.

How to apply

Apply through the Interfolio Faculty Search application portal. Submit a maximum two-page letter of interest, a curriculum vitae including publications, and three letters of reference. Applications are considered until the position is filled, with preference for applications received by January 15, 2027.
