Job Description

Research Associate in Atmospheric Dynamics (SS13824) - Bath, BA2 7AY

About the role

Join the Leverhulme Trust-funded Seeing the Unseen project and help answer fundamental questions about how atmospheric gravity waves influence the Earth's atmosphere, weather and climate, and may provide early warning of dangerous tropical cyclone intensification.

You will work within an international team combining satellite observations, ground-based measurements and state-of-the-art numerical models to overcome the long-standing observational filter problem. Our goal is to produce the first physically-consistent picture of the global atmospheric gravity wave field and the momentum it transports, and you will play a central role in achieving this.

About you

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is enthusiastic about understanding how the atmosphere works and tackling challenging scientific problems.
  • Has, or is close...
