Scope of workfull-time position suitable for part-time**Responsibilities**:
Duties include academic services in the project named above. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications.

The applicant will work to use machine-learning techniques to improve the skill of seasonal-decadal predictions of European summer extremes. A particular focus of the successful applicant’s work will be on building machine-learning based analysis and post-processing techniques for seasonal-decadal forecast information. Improving forecast skill includes running dedicated ensemble simulations and analysis with ESM based seasonal-decadal prediction systems, conditioning the predictions on physical boundary conditions.

The successful applicant with a strong background in climate modelling and geophysical fluid dynamics will work in the research groups ‘Climate Modelling’ and ‘Climate Extremes’ at Universität Hamburg.

**Profile**:
A university degree in a relevant field, plus doctorate.

We expect an academic degree in applied mathematics, physics, meteorology, oceanography, or computational science, plus a doctoral degree/PhD in a relevant field. We expect the following skills:

- demonstrated knowledge of one or more components of the climate system (in particular ocean/atmosphere interaction, and/or atmospheric dynamics, and/or ocean dynamics, and/or dynamics of teleconnections)
- demonstrated interest in understanding European summer heat extremes, ideally demonstrated through previous publications on the topic
- profound interest in interdisciplinary dialogue and research approaches
- ability to both work in a team and to conduct independent work
- strong oral and written communication skills
- excellent organizational skills

We offer
- Reliable remuneration based on wage agreements
- Continuing education opportunities
- University pensions
- Attractive location
- Flexible working hours
