København K
Join the cutting-edge research project, "Gulfstream Variability in a Globally Warming World – The Forgotten Danish Archive," funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark. The Department of Glaciology and Climate at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) is hiring a Postdoc with expertise in paleoceanography for a period of 2 years (24 months) commencing January 1st 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.
About the position
The project addresses the intriguing question of how the Gulfstream will respond to climatic warming and other changes in the boundary conditions f.ex. the melting Greenland ice sheet. Given the limited time span of instrumental time series, The Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland aim to build a unique archive spanning approximately 15,000 years, specifically from the last interglacial period (the Eemian) when temperatures were 1-1.5°C higher than present. The archive, derived from coring a 50-meter-thick sequence of marine clay in Denmark, will provide insights into the multidecadal natural variability of the Gulfstream under warm climate conditions.
The postdoc will undertake non-destructive sediment core analysis and alkenone-based thermometry, and contribute vital data to a multi-proxy project, which unites an international team of researchers from GEUS, LOCEAN Sorbonne University (France), Geotop-University of Quebec in Montreal (Canada), Aarhus University (Denmark) and Globe Institute, University of Copenhagen (Denmark).
Who are you?
The appointment will be made based on academic qualifications. The candidate must hold a PhD degree in Natural Sciences (e.g. Geology, Geosciences, Geography, Biology) and have documented experience working with organic geochemistry, paleoceanography and basic marine soft sediment core analysis. It would be an advantage if the candidate has experience working with statistical techniques like Principal Component Analysis, other paleoclimate reconstruction methods and dating methods but not a requirement. Proficiency in English is required, and organization and communication skills are important. Engagement in the project and interest in cross-collaborative methods and understanding is expected.
Meet your new colleagues
The Department of Glaciology and Climate study both the current and past changes of the Greenland ice sheet and the ocean surrounding it. Past changes (last 150,000 years) in the ice sheet, ocean and biological systems are studied using marine sediment cores applying a broad variety of proxy methods. The current loss of ice from Greenland is studied using a network of climate stations, satellite observations and modeling. Besides doing research, we provide advice to government agencies and the private sector and provide supervision to university students.
The department has an international staff of c. 30 researchers, PhD students and postdocs. We have a great focus on multi-disciplinary collaboration across the department and conduct department seminars and other activities to foster this. We also prioritize social arrangements to welcome and integrate new employees to our informal and friendly working environment.
