Two post doctoral at the University of Bristol
The University of Bristol has two post-doctoral positions in satellite remote sensing and ice sheet mass balance research.
The two posts are based in the Bristol Glaciology Centre working on a European Union project, ice2sea, which aims to explore present-day and future contributions to sea level from glaciers and ice sheets. This is a collaborative project involving ~ 25 partners internationally. The aim of the two posts is to produce a time series of mass trends for Antarctica and Greenland from a range of satellite observations combined with climate and statistical modelling. For post I, you should have experience in the analysis of 4-D data, preferably from satellite remote sensing related to glaciology. For post II, you should ideally have experience in mass balance studies of ice sheets/glaciers and a strong background in glaciology and/or climatology. Initially, funding will be for a period of two years with salary in the range £29,704 - £33,432 depending on experience.
If successful, you may be appointed either on a fixed term or a permanent contract depending on the extent of your previous relevant research experience, in line with the University's Fixed Term Contract Agreement.
