[RegCNET] Regional Climate Modeling Positions

[Ming Xu]

Dear Dr. Bi,

I wonder if you can help me post a job description to the RegCNET list. 
Thank you for the help.

Regional Climate/Ecosystem Modeling: Two Postdoctoral/Professional 
positions on Regional Climate/Ecosystem Modeling are currently open at the 
Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese 
Academy of Sciences (CAS). We seek highly-motivated young scientists to 
join our research team in investigating interactions between climate 
change and ecosystem processes at watershed and regional scales. One of 
the goals is to couple regional climate models with ecosystem and 
hydrological models to examine the ecosystem response/feedback to future 
climate change in China and Eastern Asia. The incumbents will work with a 
team of climatologists, ecologists, hydrologists, and soil scientists. The 
positions are based in Beijing and excellent computation resources are 
available for the project. The working language is English and speaking 
Chinese is not required. The positions are supported with competitive 
salary and the applicants with non-Chinese citizenship may be qualified 
for the .CAS Research Fellowship for International Young Researchers., 
which provides an additional financial support of RMB100,000 per year. The 
preferred starting date for the positions is May 1, 2009. Qualifications: 
A Ph.D. in atmospheric science or environmental science; research 
experience in regional climate models, such as RegCM3, MM5 or RAMS, is 
required. Experience in GCM or ecosystem modeling is a plus. Successful 
applicants will demonstrate the ability to work independently and to 
mentor graduate students in the lab. Please send cover letter, CV, 
relevant publications and the names of 3 references (with phone numbers 
and email addresses) to Dr. Ming Xu through email at mingxu at igsnrr.ac.cn.
