Senior ocean modeler – Institute of Marine Research

Overview

The Institute of Marine Research (IMR) has an opening for a permanent position as a senior ocean modeler. The position is placed within the research group Oceanography and Climate, located in Bergen, Norway. The group currently counts 30 researchers, of which approximately half are part of the modelling team. The group is moving towards NEMO as the preferred ocean model for regional and basin-scale simulations. To help this transition and to strengthen the model group, we are seeking an experienced ocean modeler.

The work will be focused on developing and maintaining regional ocean numerical simulations for use in, among other things, regional climate downscaling and ecosystem modelling. The position will take on a pivotal role within the ocean modelling team in implementing NEMO as a new tool for ocean modelling activities at the institute.
