Climate Scientist

beBee Careers is seeking a Climate Scientist in Albuquerque, NM, to conduct research in atmospheric modeling. Responsibilities include designing experiments with the E3SM model, analyzing model outputs, publishing findings, and networking with other scientists. Candidates should have a recent PhD in Atmospheric or Climate Sciences and experience in modeling and analysis. Desired skills include familiarity with cloud microphysics and proficiency in relevant programming languages.
About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled climate scientist to join our team and contribute to cutting-edge research in atmospheric modeling and analysis.

Key Responsibilities:
• Design, setup, and carry out experiments with E3SM's storm resolving atmosphere model SCREAM
• Analyze and interpret model output to quantify impacts of cirrus cloud seeding on cirrus cloud properties, the radiative budget, and potential downstream impacts on the hydrologic cycle
• Publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and present at relevant conference venues
• Network with other scientists both within and outside the organization

Requirements:
• Recent PhD in Atmospheric or Climate Sciences, or in a related field
• Proven research experience, as evidenced by strong record of research publications and presentations
• Experience in atmospheric/climate modeling, analysis, and interpretation

Desirable Skills:
• Running and interpreting simulations with Earth system models (e.g., E3SM/SCREAM, CESM, GFDL, GISS, etc.)
• Familiarity with cloud microphysics, especially cirrus clouds
• Familiarity with aerosol-cloud interactions
• Proficiency with computer languages used for modeling and analysis (e.g., C, C++, Fortran, Python, Julia, R, MATLAB, NCL)
