MPOWIR Mentoring Physical Oceanography Women to Increase Retention
Postdoctoral Research Associate – JISAO, UW
MPOWIR Mentoring Physical Oceanography Women to Increase Retention, Seattle, Washington, us, 98127
Overview
Postdoctoral Research Associate for Observationally Focused Studies in Tropical Pacific Air-Sea Interaction. The Joint Institute for the Study of the Atmosphere and Ocean (JISAO) at the University of Washington (UW) is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate for studies of Tropical Pacific air-sea interaction using data from Saildrone missions, the Tropical Pacific Observing System (TPOS), and potentially outputs of high-resolution Coupled Models. Saildrone are wind- and solar-powered Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV) that are equipped with sensor systems to monitor air-sea heat, momentum and CO2 fluxes, surface properties and upper ocean currents. The Postdoctoral Research Associate will contribute to the international TPOS-2020 project, demonstrating how these USVs could add new capabilities to the current generation TPOS, for example by offering unique measurements of air-sea interaction across fronts in the ocean and atmosphere in near-realtime. For more information on the project, see NOAA PMEL’s Ocean Climate Station Saildrone webpage: https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/ocs/saildrone. This is a recruitment for one 12-month, full-time (100% FTE) appointment, renewable for a second year, subject to approval, satisfactory performance, and availability of funding. The workplace is NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, a federal laboratory located about 3 miles from the UW. For this reason, only U.S. citizens or permanent residents will be considered. Applicants must provide proof of the PhD conferral prior to start. A late 2018/ early 2019 start date is anticipated. Qualifications
PhD in Physical Oceanography, Meteorology, Atmospheric Sciences, or related fields. Two or more years’ experience using and analyzing datasets from ocean observations and/or advanced ocean-atmosphere models. Strong computer programming and diagnostic skills in analyzing large data sets. Note: This posting includes information on employer, application requirements, and related opportunities as published. It also lists the current MPOWIR-related updates and links below. Current Opportunities & Resources
Listening sessions for the strategic planning process are scheduled for March and May 2025. This opportunity is open to all genders and career stages. The MPOWIR webinar with Dr. Julie Pullen is scheduled for April 28th at 12:00pm EDT/9:00am PDT. The Pattullo Conference is planned for September 29–October 2, 2025. Applications are open.
