We currently have twenty-three faculty members, eighty graduate students, over seventy full-time researchers and postdoctoral fellows, and an outstanding and dedicated support staff, that comprise one of the most research-active units at the university. The department conducts more than $14M in externally sponsored research each year and is nationally ranked near the top of its field. The Eric Maloney Research Group are comprised of highly motivated researchers passionate about understanding ocean-atmosphere interactions, climate dynamics, tropical meteorology, and tropical cyclones using models and observations. Members of the Maloney research group include Research Scientists Dr. Emily Riley Dellaripa and Dr. Charlotte DeMott , visiting scientists, post docs, and graduate students. |
| Position Summary | The postdoctoral scientist will be working on a NSF project led by Eric Maloney at CSU entitled “East Pacific easterly waves: Interactions with wind jets in current and future climates.” The overarching goal of the project is to understand the formation mechanisms of east Pacific easterly waves (EWs), and how these will be affected by climate change. Observations and a regional model (WRF) will be used to understand the role of topographic wind jets, the SST pattern, intraseasonal variability, and their changes with climate change on east Pacific EWs. The position will report directly to Prof. Eric Maloney, Dr. Charlotte DeMott and Dr. Emily Riley Dellaripa and will be a part of a vibrant community of researchers both within the Eric Maloney Research Group, the Department of Atmospheric Science and other funded collaborators. |
