Doctorant researcher for atmospheric simulations applied to GNSS meteorology

Leibniz University Hanover

Doctoral Student: Atmospheric Modeler for LES2GNSS Project
Are you a passionate climate modeler ready for cutting-edge research? Join our LES2GNSS project as a Doctoral Student at Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. This full-time (partial possible) hybrid position offers a unique opportunity for advanced academic development.

The Project
Funded by the DFG, LES2GNSS aims to revolutionize our understanding of atmospheric water vapor fluctuations by integrating advanced modeling with high-precision GNSS data.

Your Role
As a Doctoral Student, you’ll conduct innovative research using LES software PALM, analyze simulations and real-world measurements, and develop new GNSS meteorology functionalities. You’ll also participate in seminars, conferences, contribute to publications, and complete your doctoral thesis.

What We Offer
Work on a cutting-edge research project with significant impact on weather, climate, and air quality. Benefit from close mentorship, collaborate in a stimulating academic environment, and build a strong professional network. This is a full-time (partial possible) hybrid doctoral position at Leibniz Universität Hannover.

Qualifications
We seek a highly motivated individual with a passion for research. A Master’s in Meteorology, Climatology, Geography, Geodesy, or related field is required. Desired qualifications include experience with atmospheric numerical modeling (WRF, WRF-LES, PALM) and high-performance computing, proficiency in geographic data integration (DTM, LiDAR), strong background in atmospheric science, knowledge of atmospheric boundary layer processes and turbulence modeling, and understanding of geodetic principles (GPS). Statistical analysis tools are a plus. Excellent communication and collaboration skills are essential.
