Are you an ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you have an established background in atmospheric or climate science with an interest in physical climate change and the Earth’s energy budget?The Earth’s Energy Imbalance (EEI) is a fundamental measure of ongoing anthropogenic climate change. Since the early 2000s, satellite observations have revealed a robust increase in the Earth’s heating rate, with an EEI trend of around 0.5 W m⁻² per decade. While some increase is expected from anthropogenic forcing such as increases in greenhouses gases, and the climate system’s response to it, the magnitude and variability of this trend remains difficult to understand and for climate models to reproduce. In this role you will participate in a new international climate model intercomparison project, CERESMIP, by performing targeted climate model simulations in order to compare simulated and satellited observed (CERES) energy fluxes and assess our understanding of the radiative forcing and climate feedback processes driving the observed EEI increase. You will run climate model experiments with HadGEM3-GC5c, compare forcing and feedback outputs against observed trends, and work closely with the Met Office Hadley Centre and other international colleagues / modelling centres. You will contribute to peer-reviewed publications documenting the results in time for consideration for IPCC AR7.You will have, or be close to obtaining, a PhD in the field of Atmospheric or Climate Science, or a related discipline, and have experience of running global climate models on high performance computing platforms and analysing their outputPlease note: If you are not a British or Irish citizen, from 1 January 2021 you will require permission to work in the UK.
