The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) of Columbia University located in Palisades, New York, invites applications for two Postdoctoral Research Scientist positions focusing on on the topic of tropical cyclones in climate prediction systems.  The Postdoctoral Research Scientist(s) will utlize existing simulations from global models, including those from NASA's GEOS and NOAA's GFDL SPEAR models, to study predictability of tropical cyclones and their landfall hazards, lead peer-reviewed journal articles and present research results at conferences.  The Postdoc positions will be based at LDEO in the research group led by Professors Chia-Ying Lee and Suzana Camargo, and will collaborate with Professor Michael Tippett in the Department of Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics.  The Postdocs will work closely with our collaborators from NASA and GFDL.
