The Institut d'Astronomie et de Géophysique G. Lemaître of the
Universite Catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium invites
applications for a postdoctoral fellowship in sea-ice/ocean modelling.

The successful candidate will work for the Programme for Integrated
Earth System Modelling (PRISM) funded by the European Commission
(informations about PRISM can be found at http://www.prism.enes.org).
More particularly, he will explore the feasibility of implementing in
ORCALIM (a global sea-ice/ocean model jointly developed by French and
Belgian teams) the atmosphere/sea-ice/ocean physical interface pro-
posed by PRISM.

The postdoctoral fellowship is for 1 year, starting right now.
Candidates from the European member states with a PhD degree recently
obtained and with strengths in large-scale sea-ice/ocean modelling are
encouraged to apply.

Applications should include a detailed curriculum vitae, a letter
describing relevant experience and research interests, and one letter of
recommendation. Application materials should be sent as soon as possible
to:

Prof. T. Fichefet
Institut d'Astronomie et de Geophysique G. Lemaitre
