We are seeking applicants for 1-2 postdoctoral fellowships (PhD required) or research professionals (MSc required) in glaciology. Funding is available until 31 May 2014 and possibly longer. Employment will start by the earliest possible date.
The successful candidate(s) will perform research within the broad topic of glacier mass changes of mountain glaciers and ice caps. She/he will develop the exact topic according to interests and previous experiences. Topics may include, for example, mass balance assessments or modeling with focus on regional/global scales, partitioning of mass loss into surface mass balance and calving losses, projecting glacier mass and runoff changes, or the modeling the response of glaciers to climate change. A focus is on regional/global scale assessments/modeling. There is no funding for field work.
The successful candidate will have experience in glacier mass balance assessments or modeling and/or remote sensing.
