POSTDOC POSITION IN STABLE BOUNDARY LAYER AND MACHINE LEARNING

The department of Earth and Environmental Engineering and Earth Environmental Sciences of Columbia University in the City of New York invite application for a Postdoctoral Position in the field of atmospheric boundary layer under the supervision of Prof. Pierre Gentine. The position is part of M2LInES https://m2lines.github.io/: a large international project for improving climate predictions and especially surface temperature biases using machine learning in Earth system models. The project will involve frequent collaborations with other groups working on other aspects of the Earth system (ocean, sea ice or convection), on the development of new machine learning tools as well as on strategies to improve surface temperature predictions. The applicants should have a background in atmospheric or oceanic physics as well as exposure to machine learning and/or statistics and Earth system modeling. Candidates should have recently completed their Ph.D. or should expect to complete their degree requirements by September 2021.
