vor 2 Wochen


Bern, Bern, Schweiz Kanton Bern Vollzeit

Job Description


We are seeking an experienced postdoctoral researcher to join our Ocean Modeling Group at the Climate- and Environmental Physics Division in the University of Bern, Switzerland.


The successful candidate will work on assessing and attributing past and future changes in subsurface marine heatwaves, ocean biogeochemical compound extremes, and cross-boundary (land-ocean) compound extremes. The project offers a comprehensive, fully coupled climate-carbon cycle Earth system model and collaboration with experts in ocean extremes and tipping points within the Horizon Europe TipESM project and other initiatives.


In this role, you will:



  • Conduct research on marine heatwaves and compound extremes using advanced climate modeling techniques and large datasets;
  • Analyze and attribute past and future changes in these phenomena; and
  • Investigate the potential of these extremes to trigger larger shifts or tipping points in the ocean's physical-biogeochemical system.

Requirements


To be successful in this position, you should have:



  • A PhD in oceanography, climate sciences, physics, mathematics, statistics, or a related field;
  • Strong background in climate modeling, programming, data analysis, and ocean physics and biogeochemistry;
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills; and
  • Proficiency in English, both written and spoken.

What We Offer


The initial appointment is for two years, with the possibility of extension. You will receive a competitive salary of approximately CHF 83,000 per year, based on your qualifications and experience. You will also enjoy a generous benefits package, including health insurance, retirement plans, and paid time off. Our team is dynamic and collaborative, and we offer opportunities for professional growth and development.
