The Danish Climate Centre is responsible for the provision of
plausible future climate conditions for Denmark, the Faroe Islands
and Greenland. The Danish Climate Centre (DKC) is involved in many
international collaborative projects, where modelling and analysis of
the results are central elements. Both Global Climate Models (GCMs) and
Regional Climate Models (RCMs) are used. We seek two post-docs to join
our energetic research team. You should have some experience running
a GCM or RCM, be literate in UNIX, and have a working knowledge of C or
FORTRAN. As part of the DKC team you will work on refining climate
models, utilize and improve climate models, implement ensemble
simulations, or undertake research on methods for assessing
probabilistic climate change from multi-model ensembles.

Within the many projects that the group is involved in, you will have
scope to develop your own specific foci while supporting the broader
project objectives. DKC is a leading climate research group in northern
Europe, active in applied modelling activities in climate change,
seasonal forecasting, and climate system processes. The group has
a strong emphasis on multi-disciplinary integration and is seeking to
get further engaged with stakeholders in the water,
agricultural, and policy communities, particularly within Denmark, the
Faroe Islands and Greenland.

Employment and salary will be according to existing Danish agreements.
It will be possible to apply for an addition to the basic
salary. For further details about the positions, contact Director Anne
Mette Jørgensen +45 3915 7450 / amj@dmi.dk or Head of
Programme Jens Hesselbjerg Christensen +45 3915 7428 / jhc@dmi.dk or
senior scientist Martin Stendel +45 3915 7446 / mas@dmi.dk.

DMI is an institution under the Ministry of Transport and Energy. DMI
is
responsible for the meteorological service to society within the
Kingdom
of Denmark (Denmark, Faroe Islands and Greenland with surrounding seas
and air space). DMI performs forecast and warning duties as well as
surveillance of weather, climate and related topics in the atmosphere,
on land and at sea - on one hand with the purpose of securing human
lives and material values, and on the other hand for use in economical
and environmental planning of the society. Besides these tasks,
research
and development within the expertise of DMI is also important in order
to ensure an optimal solution to the tasks.
