Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden EUMETSAT Full time

Research Scientist Position at EUMETSAT

This research scientist position is part of a joint project between EUMETSAT and Chalmers University of Technology. The project aims to develop and apply particle model parametrisations for joint treatment of infrared and microwave radiances.

The successful candidate will have a university degree in physics, mathematics, meteorology, remote sensing, or equivalent, and relevant research experience. Experience in microwave and/or infrared, all-sky, radiative transfer will be emphasised.

The position is offered for one year, with possibility of extension for up to two additional years. The salary is about € per month (gross). The social fee paid by every Swedish employer provides general, broad social benefits.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assess the different assumptions and approaches presently used in the infrared and microwave radiative transfer, by comparing observed and simulated observations using the ARTS research tool.
  • Develop particle model parametrisations for different cloud regimes, suitable to reach the project's objectives.
  • Take part in incorporating new models into cloud retrievals made at Chalmers and SMHI, as well as supporting ECMWF to add the models into the operational RTTOV-SCATT observation operator.

Requirements

  • University degree in physics, mathematics, meteorology, remote sensing, or equivalent.
  • Relevant research experience, including PhD or at the level thereof.
  • Experience in microwave and/or infrared, all-sky, radiative transfer.
  • Knowledge in one or more of the following areas: retrievals, data assimilation, numerical weather forecasting and cloud physics.
  • Strong computing skills, including good and proven practical knowledge of programming languages (particularly C/C++ and Python).

Working Conditions

The position is located at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. The working language is English.
