Job Description
The Research Center for Environmental Modeling and Application (CEMA) conducts simulation studies utilizing various numerical models, including Earth System Models (ESMs), to clarify the complex dynamics and interaction mechanisms of the Earth system, comprising the atmosphere, ocean, land, ecosystems, and anthroposphere. We are recruiting a Researcher or Researcher (II) to lead pioneering simulation research on multi-sphere interactions—specifically incorporating continental ice sheets and solid Earth models, which have not been comprehensively covered in conventional ESMs—and investigate Earth system dynamics operating across diverse temporal scales. The successful candidate will be responsible for the following duties: 1. Research on the construction of next-generation simulation infrastructure based on ESMs, including development of coupling modules that integrate continental ice sheet and solid Earth models. 2. Research aimed at understanding Earth system dynamics (including reconstructions of global environmental change over geological timescales) and elucidating the mechanisms underlying abrupt transition phenomena. Requirements Applicants must have completed a Ph.
D. in a closely related field of research or technology development. [Qualifications and Experience] The following are desirable: ・Basic knowledge of oceanography, meteorology, polar science, etc. ・Experience in code development for climate models and Earth system models (design, programming, and academic presentations) ・Experience in conducting large-scale numerical experiments using supercomputers Work Place Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) Yokohama Institute for Earth Sciences (YES), 3173-25 Showa-machi, Kanazawa-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa, 236-0001, JAPAN Salary Annual salary (paid in 1/12 equal monthly payments) e.g., JPY 7,000,000-9,300,000 Working Conditions & Contract Period (1) Number of positions: 1 position for a Researcher or Researcher (II) (2) Type of contract:Tenure-track fixed-term employee (3)
