LOCATION: IC3 headquarters in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain GENERAL DESCRIPTION & ENVIRONMENT: If you're looking for an exciting career in the climate sciences, IC3 is one of your primary opportunities. IC3 is a newly established climate institution settled by the Government of Catalonia and the University of Barcelona, aiming at understanding of current and future climate at both global and regional scales, while aiming at improve and further develop technical capabilities and tools to simulate unprecedented changes in climate impacts on societies and economies. IC3 is expected to grow to a total staff around 200 people, with about 125-150 scientists. Working languages of IC3 are English, Catalan and Spanish. For details, see www.ic3.cat. The Unit for Climate Dynamics and Impacts of IC3 is now looking for a highly motivated scientist to fill a senior tenure position in the area of land-surface processes and soil moisture modelling. The selected candidate will be in charge of setting up a new research line on soil moisture and land-surface modelling, devoted to improve the quality of future biogeochemistry modules in a new generation of Earth System Models. This group of scientists led by the candidate will conduct research on soil moisture and crop water modelling, canopy temperature and the simulation of energy balance using field and modelling approaches. IC3 is an equal opportunity employer, working in progress to be compliant with the “EU Charter for the Researcher”.
