Princeton UniversityResearch position to analyze new approaches to modeling planetary boundary layers and convection in Earth system models The Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University, in cooperation with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), seeks a postdoctoral or more senior researcher to join a project on modeling planetary boundary layers and convection in Earth system models at GFDL, particularly for (1) analyzing interactions among large-scale circulation, eddy diffusivity, convective mass fluxes, and stratiform cloud macrophysics and microphysics; and (2) applying results of this analysis to improved simulation of tropical and sub-tropical cloud systems. The project is a collaboration with the Jet Propulsion Laborator
