Postdoctoral Fellowships in Earth, Environmental, and Climate Sciences
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University
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…

The Foster and Coco Stanback Postdoctoral Fellowship
California Institute of Technology
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…
Postdoctoral / researchPasadena, United States
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…

PhD Student | Oceanic Collective Intelligence
Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior
Study collective intelligence and predator-prey interactions in the ocean, focusing on blue whales and krill or sperm whales and deep-sea prey. The Collective Ecology group’s Carl Zeiss Nexus project combines biologging, three-dimensional movement records, feeding behaviour and acoustic observations to understand how predators exploit dynamic prey fields.…

December 2026
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…

Research Scientist, Climate Modeling
The Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence
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…

Postdoctoral Research Scientist, Ocean CDR Atlas
[C]Worthy, Convergent Research
The nonprofit research organization [C]Worthy is recruiting a postdoctoral scientist to create a high-resolution Ocean CDR Atlas for the West Coast of North America. The role uses ROMS-MARBL regional models, tracer validation, sensitivity experiments and reproducible data workflows to lower the modeling burden for ocean carbon-removal monitoring and…

Postdoctoral Research Scientist, OAE Process-Model Testbed
[C]Worthy, Convergent Research
The nonprofit research organization [C]Worthy is recruiting a postdoctoral scientist to build a one-dimensional ocean alkalinity enhancement process-model testbed in the open C-Star system. The work covers marine carbonate chemistry, mineral dissolution and precipitation, particle dynamics, sediment alkalinity cycling, uncertainty analysis and reproducible…
