Post-doctoral researcher in aerosols, clouds and their interactions with focus on km-scale modelling
Department of Physics, AOPP, Oxford
Applications are invited for a Post-doctoral researcher in aerosols, clouds and their interactions with focus on km-scale modelling.
This position, aligned with the EU Horizon Europe project Next-Generation Earth System Modelling for Realistic Projections of Rapid Climate Evolution in the Coming Decades (RealESM) with partners across Europe, will advance the representation of aerosols, clouds and their interaction in next-generation global km-scale Earth System Models (ESMs) and apply them to assess of aerosol effects on effective radiative forcing, precipitation and extreme events, with a particular focus on convective systems.
Successful applicants will work closely with our national and international collaborators and are expected to develop innovative research approaches. The role also includes the possibility to co-advise doctoral students. Results should be presented at national and international meetings as well as published in leading subject and high-impact publications. The post-holder will have the opportunity to teach.
Applicants should hold a PhD/DPhil (or be close to completion) in atmospheric physics, or related fields. Strong background and track record in atmospheric physics is essential as well as strong computing skills, including the knowledge of UNIX/Linux, Fortran, Python, or other high-level languages.
The post is full time and fixed term for 30 months.
The closing date for applications is noon GMT on Monday, 16 November 2026
