Post-Doctoral Position on the Effect of Volcanism on the Martian Climate

Applications are being solicited for a postdoctoral research position in
volcanic/atmospheric modeling in the planetary geology group at the Jet
Propulsion Laboratory. Consideration of applications will begin 02/21/2022
and continue until the position is filled. Desired start date between
spring and summer 2022. Dr. Laura Kerber will serve as the primary advisor.

Description of the Project: Volcanic eruptions throughout Martian history
would have produced voluminous quantities of H2S, SO2, and H2O, which
contributed to transient climate perturbations as well as surface
reservoirs of ice and sulfate minerals. The goal of this project is to
create a complete model of the volcanic sulfur on Mars, including eruption,
residence in the atmosphere, photochemical and microphysical evolution,
interaction with the water cycle, and deposition on the surface. Many parts
of the model are already in place, including parameterizations for erupting
sulfur and water species into the Martian atmosphere and tracking their
radiative effects on the climate.

Preferred (but not required) qualifications include:

Prior work with large climate models, experience programming in Fortran,
understanding of parallel processing/MPI, published research involving
volcanic emissions, atmospheric physics or chemistry (especially
microphysics of droplets, cloud physics, sulfur species, or
photochemistry), or the climate of Mars. Familiarity with the French
language is a plus.
