Position Summary This postdoctoral position is part of a project funded by the NASA Sea Level Change Team (https://sealevel.nasa.gov/science-team/overview/) recently awarded to Dartmouth College. Join this growing, multidisciplinary team to help advance new understanding of polar regions and improve projections of sea level rise.
Position Description Now in its fourth iteration, the NASA Sea Level Change Team (N-SLCT) has the goal of improving our understanding of regional relative sea-level change on a range of timescales and including a diverse set of physical processes that interact and combine in potentially complicated ways
across a range of timescales. The N-SLCT relies heavily on NASA satellite observations in addition to reanalysis and modeling efforts to advance our understanding of sea level change in the past, present and future. As part of this team, our project uses novel understanding and observations of ice-ocean interaction at grounding line boundaries, combined with high-resolution ocean and ice sheet modeling to improve the
projections of sea level change in key sectors of West and East Antarctica and provide a comprehensive view of sea level change contributions from Antarctica in decades to come. We are specifically looking for researchers with a background in ice sheet modeling, ocean modeling, or other polar processes. Computational experience running numerical simulations is required for this position and experience in the
development or improvement of software is highly desirable. This position will provide the opportunity to work with a team of collaborators with expertise in ice sheet modeling, oceanography, and remote sensing, as well as to take part in the NASA Sea Level Change Team effort. Compensation for this position is competitive. Applicants should have a PhD or plan to finish their PhD in glaciolog
