The Opportunity
The ARC Centre of Excellence for the Weather of the 21st Century (21st Century Weather for short) is a Federally-funded consortium of 24 partners, led by Monash University in partnership with the University of Melbourne, the University of New South Wales, the Australian National University, and the University of Tasmania. This Centre aims to determine how Australia’s weather is being reshaped by climate change. The Centre aspires to provide Australia with the knowledge, technology, and human capital for robust evidence-based decision-making in response to future weather changes in our region and to harness weather as a resource. The Centre offers a stimulating and supportive environment where researchers, students and professional and technical staff can network, thrive and grow their careers.
We are seeking to appoint a level A Research Fellow in Tropical-Extratropical Interactions in the School of Earth, Atmosphere and Environment, within the Faculty of Science.
In this role, you will work closely with Professor Liz Ritchie-Tyo to investigate the key processes and feedbacks that underpin the interaction between tropical and extratropical Weather Systems and how this interaction influences the downstream midlatitude large-scale environment using model reanalysis and simulations.
As the successful candidate, you will have a doctoral qualification in Atmospheric Science, or a closely related discipline. You will have demonstrated experience working with reanalysis or other large datasets and/or the use of weather of climate models such as the ACCESS or Weather, Research and Forecast (WRF) models.
If this sounds like the next step in your career, we look forward to hearing from you!
