The successful applicant will conduct independent research within the subproject 1 “Connectivity of the southeast Atlantic coastal upwelling system to the equatorial current system” including participation on research cruises, analysis of shipboard, moored, and glider observations as well as remote-sensing data and model output. In particular, the project is based on a mooring array along 11°S off Angola and yearly research cruises. Presentations of the results to SACUS partners and at international conferences, participation on summer schools, and publication in peer-reviewed journals are expected. Your profile:
A suitable candidate holds a PhD in Physical Oceanography or a related field and has an adequate publication and presentation record. Expertise in data and model analysis is a prerequisite; knowledge in modern ocean observation techniques is welcome. The ability to work within the GEOMAR team and with our German and African SACUS partners is expected. The position is initially limited to a 3-year employment.
The salary depends on qualification and could be up to the class 13 TVöD-Bund of the German tariff for public employees. This is a full-time position with a 39 hour work week.
