The post will be available for a period of 36 months. Weather or climate prediction involves combining information about the current state of the Earth-system with a computer model encoding the equations describing the system. Errors in the starting conditions, unknowable future greenhouse gas emissions (“forcings”), and approximations made when building the computer model all introduce uncertainty into the prediction. These uncertainties must all be accounted for to produce reliable forecasts. The approaches used to represent uncertainty in the starting conditions have firm mathematical foundations, while those used to represent forcing uncertainty are pragmatic but transparent. we therefore focus on the uncertainty in predictions due to limitations in the predictive model. This model uncertainty is a substantial source of uncertainty across weather and climate timescales so it must be accounted for in forecasts. However, there is no consensus on how to achieve this. A…

Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Atmospheric Physics
comment: Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Atmospheric Physics. This post is fixed term for 3 years. Weather and climate predictions are of central importance to users spanning industries, charities, governments, and the public. For users to make cost- effective decisions, we must provide an estimate of uncertainty in the forecast. Arguably the dominant source of uncertainty is due to approximations made when building the model used to make predictions. However, representing model uncertainty is largely an afterthought: current approaches are crude and lack physical foundations. This project will bring model uncertainty to the fore. By seamlessly addressing the problem across weather and climate timescales, we will develop the foundational understanding needed to transform the reliability of Earth-system predictions. The successful candidate will undertake independent research, and participate in the academic life of the Atmospheric Processes group and the AOPP sub- department. Applicants should possess, or be close to obtaining, a doctorate in physics, climate science, or a related field. Previous experience in the field of predictability, uncertainty quantification, stochastic parametrisation, or weather and climate modelling will be an advantage. The post-holder will have the opportunity to teach. Please direct enquiries about the role to Hannah Christensen (hannah.christensen@physics.ox.ac.uk) Only applications received before midday 12th October 2023 can be considered. You will be required to upload a brief statement of research interests, CV and details of two referees as part of your online application.
