Postdoctoral Researcher Opportunity on Clouds and Precipitation using EarthCARE First-Light Observations at McGill University.

Expected to be launched in May 2024, the joint ESA/JAXA Earth Cloud, Aerosol and Radiation Explorer (EarthCARE) mission is the largest and most complex Earth Explorer to date. It will advance our understanding of the role that clouds and aerosols play in reflecting incident solar radiation back into space and trapping infrared radiation emitted from Earth's surface. We seek a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to analyze the EarthCARE first-light observations of clouds and precipitation to evaluate large-scale models using a suite of forward and inverse modeling methods. The position is expected to begin as soon as June 1, 2024. Applications will continue to be considered until the position is filled.

Qualifications:
Ph.D. in meteorology, atmospheric science, or a closely related field (Postdocs at McGill must remain within 5 years of being awarded their Ph.D. throughout their appointment)

Demonstrated experience in understanding processes that control clouds and/or aerosol-cloud interactions.

Clear and concise verbal and written communication and collaboration skills

Experience with remote sensing instrumentation for clouds and precipitation (e.g., cloud radar, passive or active satellite sensors)

Experience with instrument simulators.

Experience with machine learning techniques.

Strong programming skills, such as a familiarity with data analysis software (e.g., Python, IDL, MATLAB, FORTRAN)

A cover letter summarizing interest in the position as well as previous relevant experience and expertise.
