Lamont-Doherty offers 24-month research appointments spanning solid-Earth processes, ocean and atmospheric systems, climate, cryospheric dynamics, paleoclimate, biogeoscience and environmental contamination. Applicants propose an original Earth-science project and identify potential mentors; machine-learning backgrounds are welcome. A forest-ecology option…
A normally two-year postdoctoral appointment beginning in autumn 2027 supports original environmental research with faculty mentorship at Caltech. Fields include climate dynamics and adaptation, atmospheric chemistry, physical oceanography, glaciology, paleoclimate, biogeochemistry and environmental microbiology. The annual stipend is $80,000, with a…
Develop atmospheric inversions of methane and nitrous oxide to constrain greenhouse-gas sources and sinks at high latitudes. The project combines CarboScope transport and inversion modelling with Arctic and Canadian observations, isotopic measurements and satellite data to investigate carbon-climate feedbacks and permafrost regions. The appointment lasts…
The ERC ICE-FLOE project studies unresolved ocean–sea-ice interactions that limit climate predictions. The postdoc will couple large-eddy ocean simulations with discrete-element sea-ice models to investigate melting, breakage and turbulence, compare results with Arctic and Antarctic observations, and develop parameterisations for global climate models. The…
An 18-month, full-time appointment develops carbon mineralization methods within the DACMIN pilot-plant project. Research examines fluid–rock reactions, leaching, impurities and carbonate precipitation using industrial residues, combining experiments and modeling. Level A salary is AU$87,266–118,416 plus 17% superannuation, with a PhD entry point of…

Up to two postdoctoral research appointments in applied mathematics are expected to start in spring or summer 2027. The initial one-year term may renew for a further year, with a starting salary of CAD 70,000 and possible additional paid teaching. Research areas include scientific computing, mathematical physics, geophysical fluid dynamics, dynamical…

Model how climate change affects floods, droughts and wildfire, including the hydrological consequences of fire-altered vegetation and soils. Combine CMIP6 or ISIMIP climate ensembles, land-use projections and probabilistic analysis to identify future hazard hotspots under Shared Socioeconomic Pathways. Results support a Bristol-led consortium studying…

Implement and assess coupled stochastic variational models of ocean circulation within the ERC STUOD project and Odyssey team. The research uses modelling under location uncertainty to represent unresolved flow dynamics while retaining physically justified properties. Numerical experiments will examine coupled ocean flows, small-scale dynamics and…

Model coupled thermal, hydrological and mechanical processes to assess geological repositories for high-level radioactive waste. Work interprets laboratory and field experiments on bentonite barriers, develops simulation tools and evaluates repository designs. The one-year term may be renewed up to five years, with expected annual pay of USD…
Model early microbial evolution and its interaction with Earth's geodynamic development. The postdoctoral project contributes to the NCCR Genesis investigation of how life emerges and shapes planetary environments.
The Stephanie E. Pierce laboratory invites original projects on vertebrate evolutionary history, spanning extinct or living groups and any geological period. Research may address phylogenetics and macroevolution, phenomics, functional biomechanics, development, tissue materials, paleoecology or geochemistry, using experimental or computational approaches.…
Investigate atmospheric chemistry using global models and field-observation analysis in Colette Heald’s group. The four-year doctoral project also develops research communication through publications, conference presentations and student co-supervision.
Investigate hanging-glacier stability and high-mountain hazards through mapping, field observations and thermo-mechanical modelling. Build an inventory, measure ice temperature and mass balance, analyse avalanche-monitoring data and develop hazard indicators. This four-year doctorate is based in Zurich with high-elevation fieldwork in Switzerland. Review…
Develop physics-based models and scientific software for geothermal and other energy-conversion systems. Research combines process components, coupled surface–subsurface flow, numerical optimization and technoeconomic assessment, including power, heat and lithium production. The Geothermal Energy and Geofluids group offers an initial one-year salaried…
Develop NeuralGCM+, an open-source climate model combining machine learning with physical principles to improve projections of unseen future climates. The project builds on NeuralGCM, couples atmospheric and ML-based ocean models, and investigates which processes should remain governed by physical equations and which can be learned from historical…
Investigate the stability and reactivity of amorphous materials and transitions leading to mineral formation in the Geochemistry and Interfacial Sciences Group. The work combines wet-chemical experiments with neutron and X-ray scattering or spectroscopy, including in-situ reaction studies and data-analysis workflows. Research connects critical elements,…
Advance critical-mineral research with Sean Regan and Florian Hofmann at the UAF Geophysical Institute through the NSF Critical Mineral Accelerator Engine in Alaska. The initial project fingerprints minerals using U-Pb-TREE analysis of detrital zircon from modern river catchments with different mineralisation patterns. Work develops chemical proxies for…
The Data Assimilation Research Team at the RIKEN Center for Computational Science seeks one research part-time worker to support data-assimilation research and related activities. The team develops weather-prediction and data-assimilation methods using large computational resources including Fugaku. The position is based at RIKEN’s Kobe Campus and normally…
