The Laboratory for Ocean Physics and Satellite remote sensing (LOPS) invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher in physical oceanography. This two-year position will be located in Brest, France.

The goal of the project is to investigate the variability of deep convection in the Greenland gyre. The work will be based on in situ observations from a mooring array near Jan Mayen, mainly collected in 2015-2016; hydrological data (from previous campaigns or Argo floats) available for this region; satellite observations (of ocean and sea ice); and potentially numerical model outputs in order to provide a wider spatio-temporal context to the in-situ observations.

Applicants should hold a PhD in physical oceanography or similar field and have experience with analyzing large datasets from observations and/or numerical models. Programming skills and fluency with analysis software, such as Python or equivalent, are required. Excellent written and spoken English is required, as well as the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.

Applicants must be within five years after their PhD defense, and must have spent at least 18 months abroad from France since May 2019.

Application deadline: 15 June 2022
