København Ø
The North Atlantic Ocean plays a pivotal role in the global climate system, influencing ocean circulation and climate variability on decadal and longer time scales. This research area holds significant importance at the National Centre for Climate Research (NCKF) within the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI).
NCKF is opening a permanent, full-time position for a talented physical oceanographer/climate scientist with a keen interest in ocean dynamics and climate variability in the North Atlantic and Arctic Ocean. As part of our research team in the unit for Global Climate in NCKF, the selected candidate will contribute to advancing our understanding of the meridional connectivity of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), including its interactions with the Arctic.
About the research Currently, our understanding of connectivity in the North Atlantic and Arctic regions is fragmented, primarily derived from ocean observational records such as transport mooring arrays and ocean reanalysis. This fragmented understanding poses challenges in making robust assessments of projections based on climate models. The research conducted will contribute to establishing a more cohesive framework for climate model evaluation. Additionally, it should aim to identify fingerprints of changes in regional exchange systems, thereby enhancing our ability to predict and understand climate dynamics. Exploring potential regime changes and investigating physical-based indicators of abrupt changes (tipping) in critical components of the circulation system is encouraged. We anticipate that observational-based data products, including ocean reanalysis, will serve as the foundation for initial research in this direction. The position also offers the possibility to engage in 1) the mainly sea ice based oceanographic fieldwork conducted regularly by the team in NW Greenland working out of the DMI arctic research station or 2) the climate modelling efforts making use of EC-Earth and planned contributions to CMIP7.
At NCKF, the successful candidate will be part of a strong team of ocean and climate modelers and climate scientists in the Unit for Global Climate at NCKF and will collaborate closely with the other units in NCKF, other departments at DMI and collaborators across Europe.
Requirements
Additional Considerations:
About DMI and NCKF The position is in the NCKF department. NCKF conducts climate and operational research for the Kingdom of Denmark (Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands) and bring together knowledge to form the basis for safety at sea, green transition and climate adaptation. The activities include assessments of recent, present and future climate, short term forecast and analysis of the physical climate system with focus on the Arctic, Greenland. The research carried out in the department is based on both global and regional modelling as well as observations from remote sensing, in-situ measurements and fieldwork.
NCKF employs approximately 65 staff members - most of whom are researches including PhD students, junior and senior scientists. 20 staff members are located in the Unit for Global Climate at NCKF. NCKF also includes a number of project managers, administrative staff and generalists who work in close collaborate with colleagues in the other DMI departments. NCKF has a strong international profile, which is also reflected in the many nationalities employed and in the use of both English and Danish as working languages.
Employment and Salary Employment and salary will be according to the Danish Law and Agreements, depending on previous experience. It will be possible to apply for an addition to the basic salary. Employees, who are recruited from abroad, and who are able to meet certain conditions, have the opportunity to work in Denmark for a period of 60 months under a special 26% tax rate without deduction, instead of working under the regular income taxation.
DMI offers a flexible working week of 37 hours including a paid lunch break, and six weeks of paid vacation annually. It is an advantage to be able to speak Danish but it is not a requirement.
Employment area is Danish Ministry of Climate, Energy and Facilities and associated institutions. Work place is DMI at Sankt Kjelds Plads 11, 2100 Copenhagen Ø, Denmark. Physical presence is expected at least on a weekly basis.
For further details about the position, contact Head of Global Climate, Ole Krarup Leth (+45 2382 0625, [email protected]) or Chief Consultant, Steffen Olsen (+45 2932 7581, [email protected]).
At DMI, diversity is an important value for us, because we believe that an inclusive and versatile work environment strengthens task fulfilment. We work actively with diversity in our employee composition, which is reflected in our inclusive workplace with a balance between work life and family life. We encourage everyone to apply for the position regardless of age, gender, sexuality, religion or ethnicity.
Application Please send your application, including a cover letter with motivation for the application, a curriculum vitae (incl. publication list), relevant exam papers and diplomas, possible other relevant appendices and contacts for relevant professional references, so we have it in our system by 18th April, 2024.
We expect to have interviews 24th and 25th April 2024. The invitation will be sent via email.
Starting date is from 1 Juli 2024, or as soon as possible thereafter.
