vor 2 Wochen
The Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) is a member of the Helmholtz Association (HGF) and funded by federal and state government. AWI focuses on polar and marine research in a variety of disciplines such as biology, oceanography, geology, geochemistry and geophysics thus allowing multidisciplinary approaches to scientific goals.
- Postdoc in deep learning for atmospheric science foundational modelling (M/F/d)
**Background**
The use of deep learning for weather forecasting has exploded in recent years, and is transforming the computational representation of atmospheric processes. Large-scale models have so far been trained on coarse-resolution model data and thereby inherited some weaknesses of classical models in the representation of important but small-scale processes in the atmospheric boundary-layer. To make the next leap forward in deep learning of atmospheric processes, we intend to train a model on high-resolution model output and observations. We thereby aim at improving deep learning models beyond the limitations of current models.
**Your Tasks**
- You will fine-tune a pre-trained foundational model such as Atmorep or Aurora using diverse data from large-eddy simulations, direct numerical simulations and observations of the real atmosphere.
- You will collaborate with atmospheric scientists in our group and machine-learning experts from the Helmholtz AI program to develop a setup that allows to train a generalizable model of atmospheric boundary-layer processes.Tasks also include the presentation of results at conferences and publishing results as scientific papers.
**Your Profile**
- PhD with a focus on machine learning
- Experience with deep learning methods, particularly with transformer-based architectures
- Good knowledge of English as a working language
**Preferred Qualifications and Skills**
- Prior experience in Earth system modelling is a bonus.
**Further Information**
This is a full-time position, limited to 3 years. It is also suitable for part-time employment. The salary will be paid in accordance with the Collective Agreement for the Public Service of the Federation (Tarifvertrag des öffentlichen Dienstes, TVöD Bund), up to salary level **13.** The place of employment will be **Bremerhaven**.**
Postdocs have to register with AWI's postdoc office **PROCEED**, thereby gaining access to a set of tailor-made career development tools.
