Postdoc Position - Atmospheric modeling, large eddy simulations bei Forschungszentrum Jülich
At the Institute of Bio- and Geosciences – Agrosphere (IBG-3) we contribute to an improved understanding and reliable prediction of hydrologic and biogeochemical processes in terrestrial systems. At IBG-3, modeling of the terrestrial system in supercomputer environments and the analyses of large data sets constitute central components of scientific and applied research. IBG-3 is also member of the Centre of High-Performance Scientific Computing in Terrestrial Systems (HPSC TerrSys), Geoverbund ABC/J, Germany (www.hpsc-terrsys.de). IBG-3 and HPSC TerrSys maintain a leading position in the development and application of parallel software technologies in the geosciences.
