Job Description

Job Summary

Reporting to the Principal Investigator, the Research Associate, Physical Ocean Modelling and Analysis, will improve the accuracy of numerical ocean models for the sub-Arctic gateway in North Atlantic.

Key Responsibilities

  • Set up regional ocean model configurations based on a selected modern ocean model system using realistic geometry and forcing data; perform high-resolution multi-decadal model simulations; introduce model improvements through refining input data and model parameters, and through data assimilation.

  • Evaluate model results using a large variety of ocean observational data; derive statistical measures to quantify model accuracy.

  • Perform statistical analyses of ocean model results to quantify ocean variability; reveal dynamic mechanisms of ocean variability through joint statistical and theoretical analyses, including the use of Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning) approaches.
