The Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research at the University of Michigan invites applications for a postdoctoral fellowship to work towards building a coupled ice-surge-wave forecast modeling system for Western Alaska. This full-time position will be located in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

The successful candidate will collaborate with a multidisciplinary team developing physical models for the northern Pacific Ocean, Bering, Chukchi, and Arctic Seas that will help guide management decisions in those regions. The fellow will lead a component of the project that is focused on building a coupled ice-surge-wave forecast model for western Alaska, and will be expected to complement the project with additional ideas and directions of their own.

The position requires a PhD in physical oceanography, meteorology, or a related field, as well as a solid record of scholarship. A background in physical modeling (ice, ocean, wave, or atmospheric modeling) is also required.

Applications must include:

  • A cover letter describing the applicant’s qualifications related to the position as well as research accomplishments,
  • A curriculum vitae,
  • Contact information for three professional references, and
  • Two representative publications.

Applications should be emailed to Mary Ogdahl at ogdahlm [at] umich.edu.

Application deadline: 15 October 2018
