Open-Rank Faculty Positions Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics
Location: University of Colorado, Boulder (CO), USA
Application Deadline: Review of applications will begin November 10, 2025, and will continue until the position is filled.
The Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) at the University of Colorado Boulder invites applications for assistant, associate, or full professor faculty in the field of atmospheric science. We are seeking 1-2 candidates who will each develop a vibrant research program that complements and expands upon existing strengths within LASP, the Boulder Campus.
Research areas of interest include observational, experimental, theoretical, and computational methods of studying the Earth’s atmosphere and/or planetary atmospheres, including exoplanets. Candidates that specialize in atmospheric dynamics, radiation, climate physics, aerosol and cloud physics, chemistry, or any other subfield of atmospheric science are welcome to apply. A research focus on the implementation or use of space-based observations is desirable.
Postdoc Position: Understanding low-cloud morphology feedback with energetic constraints
Location: Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique (LMD), Paris, France
Deadline: Open until filled
The French ANR MOBYDYC project aims to improve our physical understanding of low-cloudfeedback by building observable and energetically-constrained feedback mechanisms based on boundary-layer dynamics processes. To this end, it focuses on the spatial morphology of low clouds simulated by high-resolution models and observed by satellites, with an emphasis on stratocumulus. MOBYDYC is a project with two major objectives: to detect climate-change signals of low-cloud morphology changes, and to attribute them to changes in boundary-layer dynamics expected with global warming. A joint approach between analytical approaches, high-resolution simulations and observations is used.
The post-doc proposal addresses a part of the MOBYDYC project, namely the analysis of low-cloud morphological feedback constrained by energy conservation.This task can integrate different approaches and tools such as global climate models, global cloud-resolving models, large-eddy simulations, and observational data.
2 Ph.D. Projects within the TBM-CaN Research Group
Location: Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, B.C., Canada
Deadline: None specified
The Terrestrial Biosphere Modelling in CaNada (TBM-CaN) research group seeks interested Ph.D. students to apply for two Ph.D. projects, Projecting Carbon and Ecosystem Co-Benefits of Forest-Based Climate Solutions in Canada and Measuring Soil Greenhouse Gas Fluxes across Boreal and Arctic Disturbance Gradients.
The TBM-CaN research group applies an interdisciplinary approach – combining empirical ecology and field work with global modeling of the terrestrial biosphere and climate change – with the goal of improving climate change projections informing climate policy and decision-making from local to global scales. New members will join a dynamic research group with the opportunity to develop strong working relationships with academic and government scientists across Canada.
Summer School on Runoff Predictions in Ungauged Basins
Dates: 22–26 June 2026
Location: Vienna, Austria
Application Deadline: 1 May 2026
This summer school is devoted to runoff prediction in ungauged basins (PUB), i.e., predicting water runoff at locations where no runoff data are available. This lack of data presents considerable challenges to catchment managers who require information on water flows for decision making. This course will provide hydrologists with the theory and methods to address this critical challenge.
Masters and Ph.D. students researching catchment hydrology and practicing hydrologists who are challenged by making predictions in the absence of runoff data are invited to apply.
